Tamiya 58681 - 1/10 TC-01 Formula E GEN2 Automobile Championship Livery (TC01 Framework)
Big focus on the human body and framework that tell a new period!
Formula E, also referred to as “F1 for electric vehicles”. It has been held since 2014, primarily in urban courses such as for example famous resort areas, perhaps not generally speaking closed circuits. That is an electric powered radio control vehicle construction kit that reproduces the Formula E GEN2, a second-generation machine developed with this competition and introduced in 2018. The lower and unique as a type of the front and rear tires covered with a body cowl is realistically reproduced with polycarbonate. Separate components are included for the cockpit protective device “Hello”, rearview mirror, and big back diffuser which also acts as a bumper. Also, markings are divided into black colored and silver, and a couple of stickers for the championship (official) color with a light blue line. For the framework, we adopted TC-01, a shaft drive 4WD with in-board suspension specs
Adopting shaft drive 4WD framework with inboard suspension system, TC-01
The framework makes use of shaft drive 4WD TC-01 with inboard suspension system in order to match the lower car height. A motor is mounted on the center of a monocoque framework with a high rigidity and propeller shaft transmits power backwards and forwards. Loaded with an oil-filled gear diff. 4-wheel separate double wishbone suspension system with long supply requirements. An inboard kind that runs a horizontal oil damper vertically with a push rod and rocker supply. By adjusting the quantity of spacers, it is possible to set the camber angle, caster angle, and toe angle. Also, the suspension system arms / uprights use common components on the front side, back, left, and right to provide high maintainability.
