    I have ran this kit as a full on crawler up against TRX4 etc with great results. The shocks (well system) are actually brilliant.
    Upgrades 1. Wheels & Tyres 2. Driveshafts 3. Motor for slow control. Also a great rig for 4ws conversion.

    I've built dozens of tamiya rc's and this one was the one I made the most mistakes on by a long way! The best advice I can give on this rc is read the build manual before you build it then read it again and after you've done that.....read it again!

    So right Gavin, it's not a typical Tamiya build. But somehow it's a very refreshing build. Taking time and checking the manual many times is mandatory. And screws... so many screws. But I loved the build of my Unimog and I would like to do it again. Maybe on a high-lift or semi.
    Nope, it's not your fault. Many builders had issues with the middle gear. You need a lot of attetion for this part and even then it's not guaranteed that it fits.

  • @massimolooman1445
    @massimolooman1445 Год назад +3

    A very nice one Gavin👍 I made almost the same mistakes. The cheapest MOD I have done is to zip tie the suspension reaction arms to eliminate the play. Also did other shocks, driveshafts ,drivecups,bearings, weighting the wheel,difflock,HW crawler brushlessmotor and four-wheel steering.

      I actually had that same gearbox closing issue lol You we’re right about the centre shaft pin, but when it’s actually in its slot, it can still then slide out and prevent the bearing seating back fully, I spent close to half an hour before I spotted it. Why the pin location doesn’t just fully retain the pain I can’t imagine, but that’s what I suspect happened to you too (apologies if someone else has already put this in a comment).
      Easily my most challenging Tamiya build so far 😬😅😎

    For me the transmission problems were caused by not pressing BD7 and BD16 onto the sun gear. I had to seat them with a hammer and socket.
    Did you have any issues with the diff-locking pin? In my kit, when it was installed it forced the mesh of the crown and pinion gears. I gave up on the pin and inserted a spare bevel gear in each diff.

    Might work to put stiffer oil, smaller hole pistons in the shocks, to alleviate the wobble more, I guess. I got one I still haven't assembled, so no real experience with CR-01. But sure is a pretty thing, even tho it's not really capable as a crawler compared to the modern stuff.

    I’ve collected all variations of this chassis and even a GMade conversation chassis, this and the jeep body being my favourite of the bunch. A lot of the hop ups are best put in while building it up, but your right with the shocks. These should be first on your list to change along with the tyres and look at 4ws. There are loads more you can do with them to improve performance but start with shocks and tyres.
