Tamiya Hotshot Build Guide Part 4 : Steps 26 to 39 Chassis Complete!

Hi and welcome to Part 4 of my build series for the re-released version of the Tamiya Hotshot. This chassis goes together very differently to most modern Tamiya kits and there are some important things to look out for. This video focusses on the fitting of the electronics, building and fitting the roll cage and fitting the wheels - covering build manual steps 26 to 39 and the completion of the chassis. I hope you enjoy the build and the odd tip thrown in here and there - Cheers! About the Tamiya Hotshot The Hotshot, released in 1985, is a milestone as the first Tamiya 4 Wheel Drive chassis and the forefather of many similar chassis to come. The front and rear suspension both have single shocks and double wishbone system. The rear damper connects to the wishbones through a relatively complex lever system. The Hotshot chassis evolved during production, and was re-released in 2007 where the chassis has received a lot of smaller changes compared to the vintage ones.
