Tamiya Model reference: 58681
This R/C model assembly kit recreates the GEN2 race car that is used in
the Formula E world championship, the pinnacle of electric car racing.
The sleek, high-tech body with arch covered wheels is recreated in
polycarbonate. Halo, mirrors and rear diffuser/bumper are separately
molded components. Markings are included to recreate the Championship
Livery car, and the model is based upon the shaft-driven 4WD of the
TC-01 chassis.
TC-01: Seriously Low-Profile
This durable composite monocoque-frame chassis provides shaft driven 4WD
from a central motor via front and rear propeller shafts, with oil
filled gear differentials. 4-wheel independent double wishbone
suspension employs long arms, plus inboard setups front and rear with
oil shock-dampers actuated by push rods and rocker arms to allow the use
of low-profile bodies. Adjust spacer width to easily alter camber, skid
and toe angle settings. Both suspension arms and uprights are identical
left, right, front and rear, for more efficient maintenance and pit
work.
