- In this video, I do what I normally do and mess up right from the start. It's all about consistency don't you know ;)
Well, the XV-01 from Tamiya is a bit of a change from the norm when it comes to chassis layout. With the motor hanging over the front axel but still being 4WD, building this is going to be a bit different.
This is a detailed build of this fantastic rally chassis, so make a cup of tea, sit back and enjoy.
This will be a four-part XV-01 video collection.
1. Unboxing, 2. Body Painting, 3. Chassis Build and 4. Running. (Well that was the plan ;)

I do like the humour injected into your videos Gav 👍
This was my first kit build ever. Struggled with the decals but otherwise enjoyed in immensly,
Hi Gav - so nice to see you enjoying the build, as you know, I love mine! I'm sure you will enjoy running it too, as you said, it's a bit different for Tamiya, I think the quality really shines through, as it will when you drive it! All the best, mate! 👍😊
Enjoyed your series on this one too Mark 👍 interested in your thoughts on the shocks and whether to run a higher ride height by using the longer eyelets which come with the shock sprues - and also interested in whether you ever fitted a torque tuned motor to it, as your comparison against the TT-02 didn’t seem quite even otherwise (I think that had a torque tuned in?!)
@@spencergold1279 Hi Spencer - thank you, I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the series! You are correct, I did employ the longer eyelets, as the ground clearance isn't great for rallying in stock form. Much better with those fitted. As for the motor (between you and me!) I wanted to try to show that the better design and handling could beat a hopped up budget car - but it was a close thing. You can tell the difference more when you drive them back-to-back. I'm hoping to do the XV justice by fitting a mild brushless setup, just need to find the cash, and parts are hard to get at the moment. Hopefully coming this year. All the best, Spencer. 👍😊
Hi Mark, your collection of XV-01 videos are great and certainly influenced me to get one over 12 months ago. Just got to build it now 🙂
@@davefarrell8453 Thanks very much, Dave! Great to read that you also enjoyed the series. I wish you a great time building this little gem of a Tamiya! :)
When you see belt drive from Tamiya you know they've really put effort into the kit.
Nice Build vid!
I have this model and it is by far one of my favourites. I did however dislike the bottoming out of the suspension which leaves scratches ALL OVER the bottom of the chassis. Luckily the solution is supplied for you by Tamiya!
A good fix I found was (in step 25 @ 19:25 into your Vid) to swap out the shock base connector, simply use part V2 instead of V1 as it gives just that little bit more clearance when the shock is fully compressed. Far better than spending money on hop up parts, and keeps your model 100% Tamiya!
Nice, I’ll do that change today
I didn't realise it was belt drive !! MMM, belt drive, oil diffs.........Wicked!!
XV-01 and FF-03 my favorite chassis of handling point of view (also they have similar construction and lot of common parts).
the music is nice too! for example at 20:00
It's an excellent car. I built one back in 2014. No regrets.
Looks like a good chassis. Gavin, I think it is time to invest in some proper shocks shaft pliers! 🤣 I cringe every time you build shocks 😬 they are an awesome bit of kit and genuinely make builds easier!
Wonderful video. I think it was the highlight of your RUclips career. Thanks for that. My standard to build my XV-01
The front is very similar to the FF-03 with how the motor mount and diff is done. And as a whole it also reminds me a lot of my TA-05 ver.II (which clearly shares the design philosophy with the FF-03 and what I recognize in this XV-01 as well). Like how the suspention arms are mounted and the thin spacers used in between the mounts. They are beautiful chassis with very little slop. This makes me want to get an XV-01 as well. Would love to see more touring cars pass the channel. I'm not really a buggy person myself but still enjoy your channel and video's very much. I really wanted a Kyosho Phantom after you being so enthousiastic about it. But I could keep myself from getting one haha.
Love the look of this kit. Wanted a.Rally car for a while.and this is the one I have my eye on.
I’ve always liked rally/touring cars, Tamiya always did awesome model kits back in the late 70’s early 80’s and I can’t remember if one one of the early RC kits was a Lancia or Audi, although the 959 Porsche was something, whatever, this kit is just interesting indeed, as I’m reading some comments builders of modern kits seem to have seen some of this architecture before, but I’ve never seen a chassis like this I’ll suspect that it will run well.
My first real kit that blew me away was the Kyosho Optima mid way back in 1989 was, in my opinion, a modern chassis as compared to anything I’d built up until that time.
Thanks for the infomative video Gav, I'm getting one for the missus 👍
It's a nice bit of Kit! The front Gearbox is very similar to most of the FF Chassis Cars. That's a series that will surprise you as well.
You do such a great job with these videos. Tamiya should be paying you to produce these.
Fr, love the studio
Dont know if you know, euro car parts sell some tamiya paint options. Next day pick up. No postage costs.
I've ordered the Subaru STI XV-01 KIT.
I loved building mine - and as you say, it felt totally different to the other tamiyas I’ve built so far. LOTS of little shims though!
I think the standard strut eyelets leave the car too low and it bottoms out (and Tamiya shocks seem far too soft....) so I’ve installed the longer eyelets which come on the shock sprues. Not actually had a chance to run it in this configuration yet though - and a few reports state it makes it more likely to topple over, which would be pretty serious in light of the hours spent on the body!
There are a LOT of decals, and the ones over the front wings are tricky. I had a few wrinkles and bubbles which I couldn’t quite get rid of with a hairdryer - but not as tough as the Kyosho Turbo Scorpion!
Looking forward to watching your efforts on the body though - as your cars always look stunning when finished. 👍
Having done this myself this was a fun build. have been super satisfied with this once if found all the parts mentioned in turtles guide. made me switch exclusively to rally
At 4:15 it’s best put a shim between the plastic nn spacer and the gear. You’ll need to source it yourself, 4mm shaft size, 6mm outer diameter or so. Also, Associated Green Slime shock lube is good to put on the diff gaskets to help with sealing, and thicker diff oil leaks less. I haven’t built my own xv01 yet, but I’ve been researching like crazy getting ready to. It will be my seventh Tamiya build! I actually bought a TT02 Escort Cosworth just for the body and wheels to put on the xv01, and gave the rest of the kit to a friend for his first build along with spare electronics.
Loving the build vids. If like me you're a racer, and you don't have the time or money to do these kits, seeing these vids gives you the essentials of the experience, nice work.
Glad you like them Alistair!
If you decide to use the slipper clutch set, don't forget you will also need to change the pinion to a 48 pitch type. A 25 tooth pinion from Tamiya 54218 gives almost the same ratio as the original kit spur pinion combination.
The oil from the diff will come out as you install a brushless, then I just used grease in it, I did mount all the tamiya optionals and you spend the same value as the car imself, lately I bought the aluminium arms and the aluminium belt wheel, epic
All about adjustability! I remember you saying you werent in the touring car era, this is much like a ta03f design with the trf suspension from their on road cars. Wicked job documenting and sharing the hop up list
Hello Gavin, Great choice of kit, i agree the kit build seems slightly different from other Tamiya I've built, I personally love the
XV-01 platform, the handling is really something special, and perfect for that scale rally look. BUILD TIP: Tamiya instructions assembly images 2&8 shown the front and rear gearboxes coming together, when using the middle shaft (BA19) AFTER using shaft pin(BA15) and Idler gear (BG1) BEFORE sliding on NN4 to mate up to the Idler gear (shaft pin BA15 side) use a thin metal shim with a 4mm hole 6mm outer diameter (3Racing (3RAC-SW04/V2) was what was recommended by several XV Guru's anyway what that shim does it stop the metal shaft pin BA15 from eating into plastic spacer NN4 causing slop and prematurely wearing the plastic Idler gear. It isn't a major issue unless you run your XV often or hard, but if we can extent the life, increase reliability and reduce costs, win win and win.
P.S the correct answer from last week was Yokomo XY-870C Super Dogfighter shocks, we must of bought from same guy as my Dogfighter came with Kyosho Shocks lol. Cheers and best wishes Fu.
Great video Gavin. Not that I have a XV-01, but I'm still enjoying your build. I don't think I have seen a 1/10th car with oil diffs. I have only ever came across them with my dirty1/5th scale petrol. It seems it is designed for a tough time. As you have stated was, it was not like a Tamiya build. Thumbs up my friend. A great Friday night's RC entertainment!
I would love to see a race between all the Tamiya cars! Or loads of different tamiya racing together.
Kinda glad you tested it with sound, mine sounds like that compared to my tb01 is LOUD
I bought a few cars over the last few months for building because i hope to get back into rc , a sport ive been in since 1985 , two losi 22x4s one b74, one xb4 , oneb64.2 one losi 22 5.0 . watching this build makes me think of something you said about the kit that doesn't seem to be Tamiya but from another company , and im inclined to agree . I've built three of the six kits and a lot of the build your doing reminds me of what you said . I also believe that to be true because of the cost . I have a TT-02 and I could have bought two of them at the cost of the XV-01
C'mon hurry up get it done! Hahaha
Great job buddy!
Excellent channel my friend. I bought a sand scorcher and watched your video on that build. Now you got me wanting this. I'll hang around and subscribe.
Love the channel Gavin! I have been binge watching your videos during this lockdown. I have an original Blackfoot and broken Sand Scorcher in the loft that you have inspired me to dig out and try and get them working. I am gonna buy a Koyosho Ultima Turbo after watching your build and really needing one all of a sudden! I was going to buy a tamiya Hotshot or Sand Scorcher due to nostalgia but your build vidoes sold me on the Ultima Turbo (first).........PS love the cool wall!!
Wow, that's a really nice chassis mate, I wasn't expecting it to be that good. If I could afford it I'd get one, maybe in a few months maybe.... ;) If/when I get one I might not go box art, might go for more of a road car look. Great build video, can't wait to see it finished and running!
Hi! In addition to the FF03 several others have already recommended, the vintage TA03F is also a good choice for an upcoming build. You can find kits new in box on eBay. It has the motor way out front and it’s a touring car that won several championships in the late 90’s. Very different build. I have one and the TA03 R TRF. Two of my favorite cars.
Great 👍🤩👍
I have the Subaru arai on this chassis, very enjoyable build
BTW, love the track at 19:19!!
If you planned on rallying this car it would be awesome if you could slightly over drive the front wheels or under drive the rear wheels but only like 5 to 8%. I have always loved the wheels rims on the Lancia. I look forward to seeing that white paint in the post.
you could try your local euro car parts as some carry Tamiya paint if they don't they should be able to get it next day on most colours
😉 Good tunes
I bet that chassis would be great for a drift car!!
From experience, get the alloy suspension mounts, they are essential as the plastic suspension mounts will tare easily.
Sorry, last comment. Reminds me more of a Traxxas build my friend!
Another great video Gavin. I have this kit and I am looking forward to building it. Why not add the Audi Quattro Rallye A2 body (51615) to go on it as well? I have got that along with a bunch of the hop ups you mentioned. Keep up the good work 👍
Gavin, nice video again about a great Rally car, my breath only stopped as you were clamping the piston rods with your std. pliers to screw on the eyelets. Ouch! Tamiya suggests to use a towel between or special piston rod plier. Just in case you got leaking shocks by scratched piston rods.
I’ve never scratched one so far in all the hundreds I’ve built but it’s not best practice no. You don’t need to apply that much pressure to hold the piston but it’s easier for tamiya to say use something to protect the piston as it’s impossible to anticipate what pliers a person will use or how much force will be applied. Do what works best for you. 👍🏻
Hey! What would you recommend for esc, receiver, battery and charger (budget focus)? Thanks in advance
It's like a modern-ish version of the TA03f
👍🔥🔥🔥
Which servo did you manage to fit in there Gav?
Awesome video! Did you get the drill out for the arms? I think it mentions it in the manual, not sure if it’s essential or not
Didn’t need it. Arms are all smooth and I didn’t find any friction issues
How much do you pay per paint can after shipping?
I really wanted to buy this, but I keep reading of XV01 diff problems when you install a mildly warm brushless motor
I want one of these but they are frigging out of stock anywhere. I was after one of those long damper releases last year but it nvr showed up from where i am; singapore
I would not say that fitting the electronics is easy. The space is given, you need electronics that fit and cables need to be well organised. The radio antenna has an strange path (inside) until reaching the pipe. The battey needs long cables to reach the esc and it has to be always connected...and disconnecting the battery quickly is always a safe measure in case of electric cut. This cannot be done here. Another strange thing is that the belt transmission is "completelly" sealed but ... not completelly: the front pulley is open to air (ridiculous) and then all dust can get into the "completelly" sealed compartment. The best thing in the car is the oversteering in corners. As always great video and please, bring more touring cars to the channel.
You should give the Tamiya FF03 kit a go. They are relatively inexpensive and and interesting concept as a FF chassis.
Good call - the FF03 is a great kit - almost like half an XV01 but with funky suspension! 👍😊
I’ll take a look.
@@MarkBryanRC your build videos is what lead me to make the purchase!
@@slolx50 That's great to know! Hope you are enjoying it! 👍
i just bought this kit at us140, and found it marked made in japan
Would you be inclined to get a LC Racing PTG 2 Rally chassis and compare it to the XV-01 ?
Not currently due to channel budget limitations unfortunately.
HE USED THE SUPERSMASH BROS THING AJHAJAHAHAHHA
Do you have a Eurocarparts depot nearby - if so they can usually get Tamiya PS paints for next-day collection, no delivery costs! 😁
Edit... Oops, see I'm not the first to suggest this!
Great vid what nimh battery would you advise to put in this chassis ? Thanks
Any normal tamiya shape will do if you are going NIMH. Just go for one will a reasonable 4000+ mah
@@RCKickschannel much appreciated thank you . It’s my first ever build so just unsure of a few things
@@davidshort952 If you haven’t already, come and join the RCKicks Facebook group. It’s full of friendly people happy to help 👍🏻
@@RCKickschannel brilliant I sure will 👍
Your paints probably in the Suez Canal mate.
Yeah I think my RC Mart order is there too. It's full of hop ups for the TT02B😟
🚣♀️ 💨
Ha Ha how many tins of paint have you got !! no wonder i cant get any anywhere
It’s a magic box of Tamiya paint Todd. It has 50+ tins of all types of colour but NEVER the colour you bloody need. 😂
why did you use damper oil for the diffs??
No clue at all, ask Tamiya. I built it stock first but some changes will come.
@@RCKickschannel oh that’s what was included! how odd. the ta06 has molasses by comparison. i guess they wanted more diff action
I will swap it out when I upgrade the diffs
I have ps-1 but that unfortunately only plays games and audio cds :/
10 seconds in... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
WTF mate! Got to the first "let's crack on" and an 8 minute ad. about a cooking knife comes on then 5 minutes later some woman came on explaining in Spanish the great points of a leather belt, which I couldn't skip as i was in the shower! Who can talk about a belt for 5 minutes? Get rid of the mid roll chap!
Hi, LOL sorry about that, RUclips puts them in automatically. Unfortunately, If I remove mid-roll adverts you won't have an RCKicks channel to watch. When the channel gets bigger and I can afford to remove the adverts I will dial them back one at a time. While the channel makes a loss each month, it's not possible to remove a large chunk of the income. Currently, the channel is funded by RCKicks Patreons, Rebecca and I and the RUclips advert income. You can subscribe to RUclips to remove all adverts on a monthly subscription. That way you don't have to deal with the adverts but content creators can afford to make content for you to watch.
