Tamiya DT01 Fighter Buggy Memorial Build Guide + Tips Part 2 Chassis Finished

Hello and welcome to Part 2 of my build guide for the Tamiya DT-01 Fighter Buggy RX Memorial, where we follow steps 17 to 26 of the build manual and complete the chassis. The buggy is quite easy to build, but is still a pleasure to put together. I think the main chassis can be built in less that 2 hours. However, it's easy to make a mistake, so I hope you find this guide useful. I've also included a few little tips and tricks along the way. I hope you will join me for Part 3 of this Build Guide where we will be completing and detailing the bodywork, including the driver figure and a bespoke cockpit cover to hide the electronics. About the RX Memorial 25th Anniversary edition: 1996 was the year that the Fighter Buggy RX first appeared, and it played a big part in the German "Fighter Cup" series, which also started in the same year and marks its 25th anniversary in 2021. To celebrate, Tamiya released this special Memorial edition of the kit, based upon the trusty DT-01 chassis. About the Model • This is a 1/10 scale R/C model assembly kit.
