Tamiya #58681 - 1/10 TC-01 Formula E GEN2 Vehicle Championship Livery (TC01 Framework)
Big awareness of the body and chassis that tell a new period!
Formula E, also called “F1 for electric vehicles”. It has been held since 2014, mainly in urban courses including famous resort areas, not in general shut circuits. That is a power radio control vehicle installation kit that reproduces the Formula E GEN2, a second-generation device developed with this race and introduced in 2018. The lower and unique type of the front and rear tires covered with a body cowl is realistically reproduced with polycarbonate. Separate parts are included the cockpit protective device “Hello”, rearview mirror, and big back diffuser which also acts as a bumper. Also, markings are divided into black and silver, and a collection of stickers for the championship (official) color with a light blue line. For the chassis, we adopted TC-01, a shaft drive 4WD with in-board suspension system requirements
Adopting shaft drive 4WD chassis with inboard suspension system, TC-01
The chassis uses shaft drive 4WD TC-01 with inboard suspension to be able to match the low vehicle height. A motor is installed on the center of a monocoque frame with high rigidity as well as the propeller shaft transmits power backwards and forwards. Loaded with an oil-filled gear diff. 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension system with long arm specs. An inboard kind that operates a horizontal oil damper vertically with a push rod and rocker supply. By adjusting the amount of spacers, it is possible to set the camber angle, caster angle, and toe angle. Furthermore, the suspension system hands / uprights use typical parts on the front side, back, left, and to offer high maintainability.
