Tamiya Tyrrell P34 - 6 Wheeler F103 Chassis Build Guide Part 1

[@TimothyDoherty-p7c]

The most watchable build video I've seen yet. Why? You describe hardware by its spec instead of the random Tamiya part number, you edit out all the fiddly bits, and you don't talk to your viewers like they are amateurs. Well done, sir! 😊

[@MarkBryanRC]

Hi Timothy and many thanks for the very encouraging words! Much appreciated! I've done so many build videos now and have tried to learn from past mistakes, endeavouring to pass on all the necessary info and cutting out the stuff that's not needed (like doing up screws!) Glad you approve, thanks again, sir! 🙏😎👍

[@barrycheesemore2928]

That looks like a pretty good build, not too complicated, but a little fiddly in places. Personally I would have put threadlock on any screw that goes into a metal part or metal nut, if you run the car they will inevitably work loose! Another awesome Mark Bryan build video, I love them!!

[@MarkBryanRC]

Hi there Barry! Exactly, it's not overcomplicated but tricky to wrestle the parts together in places! I agree about the threadlock but this lovely car will only get minimal use! Great to hear you love these build vids, thanks very much! Have a smashing Sunday! 🙏😎👊👍

[@DustyFingersRC]

Best build videos, love these to chill out too. What an interesting build so far. 👍🏻

[@MarkBryanRC]

Thanks a bunch Damian! That's very kind of you to say. Yes I'm finding it interesting, learning about this strange chassis as I go along! Have a smashing weekend mate! 😎👊👍

[@TonyGardnerRC]

First! Just home with a coffee and biscuits so a nice watch to kick off the weekend!

[@MarkBryanRC]

Gold medal goes to Tony! 🥇Well done pal and I hope you enjoyed the coffee and biscuits! And the video hopefully! 😅🙌👍

[@TonyGardnerRC]

@@MarkBryanRC The biscuits were indeed top notch, chocolate hob nobs! Always enjoy your videos, very informative and useful as always!

[@MarkBryanRC]

@@TonyGardnerRC Oooh! Chocolate hob nobs - posh biccies! 😅👍 Love 'em Tony! Cheers! 🍻

[@LassoKid7777]

Alot of nuts in this build😊

[@MarkBryanRC]

Haha! 😂 yeah including me of course! 😅 Cheers for the smiles mate! 🍻😁👍

[@JF-RC]

Hi Mark, another great instructional video on the amazing F103 chassis. This is a little different from what you normally feature, I think Peter has given you a wonderful gift indeed. These chassis kind of remind me of the early Tamiya days, FRP plates etc…in this chassis, a few different building techniques are used for the steering and suspension systems, really makes for an interesting build 😊😊best wishes to you and the family 😎🤗😉

[@MarkBryanRC]

Hello John and thanks for the great comment! Certainly is something very different to get my teeth into! You are right ✅ about it being like the early Tamiya days with the FRP. The main thing is that I'm enjoying it! All the best my friend! 😎👍

[@catcancrunch7260]

Well this is a strange but cool RC, very interested in the running video, thanks for your upload mate 👍🙏😸

[@MarkBryanRC]

You got that right, Cat! It's all new to me but I'm enjoying the build very much. Many thanks for watching, have a great weekend mate! 😎👊👍

[@HaydadRC]

Nice start Mark!👍😊 For some strange reason I’d like to add one to the collection though I’ve really no place to run one!🤣

[@MarkBryanRC]

Thanks J! Yeah a decent start to the build and only a couple of mistakes made off-camera! 😅 I know what you mean, I'll struggle to find a good place to run it but I don't care, it just looks so good! Have a great weekend pal! 😎👊👍

[@poorboysrc]

Second! - Something about this wacky six-wheeler has never appealed to me. Possibly the six wheels? Haha. That's a cool front-end setup they used to make it work. Wonderful video, as always, Mark. Hope the thumb is healing nicely! :)

[@MarkBryanRC]

And silver goes to Fil! 🥈Nice one pal! I love the look of this crazy contraption! And it's such a different build to any other kit I've done. The thumb is better than expected, thanks mate. Wishing you a wonderful weekend! 😁👊👍

[@theoagrc]

My brain was hurting through that video Mark. I was trying to understand how those front uprights worked and everytime I got my bearings I lost them again!! What a quirky chassis this is just like the real life car! Cheers dude 🙌🏻

[@MarkBryanRC]

Hi there Craig! You and me both mate, there was a lot of head scratching going on here I can tell you! 😅 Quirky is certainly the word for this kit, that's for sure! Very enjoyable all the same! Hope you are having a relaxing Sunday my friend! 👌😁🤝👍

[@scaleworksRC]

This is so relaxing with morning coffee, doing the morning routine. Thank you Mark!

[@MarkBryanRC]

Cheers, Mike! Glad to hear my friend! Have a fantastic day over there! 😎👊👍

[@scaleworksRC]

@@MarkBryanRC Same you you and Rob! Angry Ken and Barbra probably keeping each other warm🐨🐿😂

[@MarkBryanRC]

Thanks pal, you got that right, it's bloomin' freezing over here! Ken and Barbara are sharing body warmth! 😅👍

[@RCBirds]

Awesome car and build Mark. F-1s are alway great RCs. I really enjoyed the build.

[@MarkBryanRC]

Thanks Dirk, yes I agree it's an awesome kit and a lot of fun to build. I think I might need more F1 kits after doing this one! Cheers my friend! 🍻😎👍

[@MadBeeRC]

Been looking forward to this one Mark, such a classic and a really unique kit in a simple interesting way! Going to look awesome l am sure of that when finished l can bet on that! Have a cracking weekend buddy😉👍🍻😁

[@MarkBryanRC]

Hi there James, always lovely to read you my friend! You said it well, this quirky chassis is kind of simple yet complex at the same time! 😅 Certainly different that's for sure! The paint and bodywork will be the hardest part though I think! We're having a good one pal, hope you are too! 🤞😎👌👍

[@MadBeeRC]

@MarkBryanRC All good here Mark and agree that build you are doing is a nice thing! The bodyshell should be interesting too! but what a shocking day! My god Mick at the hobbyshed is making me jealous with his FB pics of the sun and blue skies and that bbq! Mate l miss the summer dude😥 We will get there lol! I have started my Plasma Edge build it's a perfect day for it on a positive note! Cheers pal 👍

[@MarkBryanRC]

Hi again James! Glad you're doing OK. I haven't seen what Mick has been up to, I must take a look! But from what you describe, I think I'd just be green with envy! 😅 Roll on Spring! Have fun with the Plasma Edge, it's a lovely build mate! 😍👍

[@roninfr4666]

Was watching house of lords falling a sleep ....this far more entertaining and informative 😂

[@MarkBryanRC]

Glad you enjoyed it, I'm glad it beats the House of Lords! 😅 Thanks for watching and commenting, pal! 😁👍

[@Lloyd0705]

This has made my day! Keep toying with the idea of building one of these. I'm looking forward to seeing the build and the completed model. 👍

[@MarkBryanRC]

Great to hear! Thanks! Yeah this has been on my radar for a long time and now I'm really enjoying the build process. Can't wait to try it out. Cheers! 🍻😎👍

[@cw-01creations46]

Ahhhh, thats a lovely looking birthday present you are finally getting round to building, young Mark 👍 i am very much looking forward to joining you for Part 2 😎 And Part 3 as well 😂 Hope you're having a smashing weekend 🤘🤘🤘

[@MarkBryanRC]

Hi Peter! Oh yes what a wonderful birthday 🎂 present 🎁 thanks very much! It really is a very interesting build to get my teeth into, just don't talk to me about the tyres!!! So hard to fit! 😬 Other than that I'm loving it! The weekend is going well thanks, hope 🙏 yours is too! 🤗🤝👍

[@coygtrc]

Of course we'll join for part 2, Mark. Great build start of this unusual chassis ✌ Enjoy 👍🤝

[@MarkBryanRC]

Many thanks, Gabriel! I'm certainly enjoying it. The chassis is very cramped so I've come up with a big change to the servo mounting position - fingers crossed it works... coming in part 2 my friend! 😎👊👍

[@LassoKid7777]

Nice build , interesting vehicle

[@MarkBryanRC]

Thanks dude, yeah this is so different to any other kit I've built so far... I'm loving it! 😁👊👍

[@Toystheyrenot]

It’s coming along nicely Mark. A stunning car and very interesting F103 chassis.👍😎

[@MarkBryanRC]

Thanks muchly, Sean! 🙏 Yeah I love the looks of this one and the chassis is very cool but all new to me, so it's an interesting build learning how it all goes together... I did completely change the way the servo mounts as you will see! Have a good one there! 😎👊👍

[@madmustangrc214]

This kit is just as interesting as the real car to think they built this for the hunt for more traction.

[@MarkBryanRC]

Hi there Kev and thanks for dropping in! I gotta agree, the real car was something very special, I think the 2 small front wheels had a larger contact patch that the larger single wheels. The 2 small wheels also improved airflow over the front of the car... anyway it was banned after a short while, such a shame! Have a great weekend my friend! 😎👊👍

[@aviano72]

Finally time to watch some YT videos👍 You do the best build videos by far. Always love to watch them. Can't wait to see you and Rob race it 😀 I just finished building a TA02 chassis. Just need to install some electrics.

[@MarkBryanRC]

Hi Are and thanks for getting time to watch this one. You are too kind my friend, I do my best with these videos, it takes a lot of time, especially in the editing! 😅 The TA02 is also a lovely chassis to put together, have fun with the choice of electrics! Cheers! 🍻😎👍

[@chaz7287]

Nice one Mark, very cool!!! I haven’t picked one of these up yet, tricky one to find at a good price, I’m in the middle of copying your tt02s with the Lancer body build at the moment. Then a Super Clodbuster👍

[@MarkBryanRC]

Thanks Chaz! Yes these are hard to come by and even harder to find at a good price. Definitely an interesting build though. I hope your TT02 comes out well... and I know you'll love the Clodbuster! Cheers! 🍻😎👍

[@chaz7287]

I’m looking forward to seeing which driver you choose, the Super Swede or Depailler.

[@MarkBryanRC]

@@chaz7287 Cheers Chaz, not decided yet pal! 😁👍

[@WoodsUnknown]

Thats a crazy looking rc, i cant wait to get my first Tamiya kit. Its gonna look great when its done.

[@MarkBryanRC]

Oh yes this chassis is mad! Never built anything like it before but I'm enjoying it! Hope you get a Tamiya kit soon! 🤞😎👍

[@WoodsUnknown]

@MarkBryanRC that's saying something I bet after the amount of kits you've built sir.

[@MarkBryanRC]

Oh yes, I think I've built about 40 by now! 😅👍

[@WoodsUnknown]

@MarkBryanRC alot of amazing builds I've seen on your channel. Keep them coming i can't wait for more

[@MarkBryanRC]

Many thanks, there are still a few builds coming up! 😁👍

Hobbytown had a built one in the case up front..owner had about 40 vintage kits on a top shelf very kool guy

That is impressive, Joe - very cool indeed! 😎👍

[@kimpestridge6668]

Wow Mark the patience you have to build this kit (it would have been thrown up the wall by now if it was me 😂) another brilliant video 👍 take care 😊

[@MarkBryanRC]

Glad you enjoyed it, Kim and thanks for watching! Oh yes, on the next part when trying to fit the front tyres, I nearly did throw it up the wall! All the best my friend, have a lovely week! 🙏😎👍

[@arronfrost2872]

Love your build vids Mark.Best on youtube by a (black)country mile.👍

[@MarkBryanRC]

Thanks a ton, Arron! Haha a "Black" Country mile, I see what you did there! 😅 How's the Blitzer coming along? All the best! 😎👍

[@BasBoyRC]

First time watching one of these being built, very interesting but I would have used more threadlock on more of the screws. Normally metal to metal needs more.

[@MarkBryanRC]

Thanks Mal! Yeah I was tempted to use more threadlock but decided to go with the instructions. This model will only get very light use anyway! Cheers pal! 🍻😎👍

[@BasBoyRC]

@@MarkBryanRC So no brushless conversion 🙂

[@MarkBryanRC]

@@BasBoyRC Haha too right Mal!!! 😂😂 Silver can all the way! 😅😅👍👍

[@thecontractor365]

My word mate, that looks a little different from the average buggy chassis. I'll be fascinated to see what surface you find run this on. A sports hall would be ideal.

[@MarkBryanRC]

Too right ✅ pal, it's just about as different as you can get!!! Nice to tackle something new for a change though! Agreed, a sports hall would be ideal but sadly I don't have access to one now I've retired from working at the school! Hopefully a nice smooth stretch of tarmac will be suffice. 🤞 All the best mate! 😎👊👍

[@roninfr4666]

Like building a Westfield 😅

[@MarkBryanRC]

Haha, yeah, plastic fantastic!!! 😅👍

[@roninfr4666]

Had the benetton wish still had it had that in Scalextric I think

[@MarkBryanRC]

Oh yes the Benetton F1 was a very cool looking car! 😍😎👍

[@rc-dom-uk]

interesting builds aren’t they these f1 cars. you can swop out the friction shock for an oil filled one . i think basically it’s a tt02 type one . very interesting mate 👍

[@MarkBryanRC]

Absolutely, Dom! Very interesting indeed. Yeah I saw some upgrades for oil shocks but I want to get an idea what this friction shock feels like. Thanks mate and hope all is god with you! 😎👍

[@rc-dom-uk]

@ yeah i don’t know how much a difference an oil shock would make . if it’s actually worth it as the suspension travel is so slight 🤔

[@MarkBryanRC]

@@rc-dom-uk That's true mate, I'm gonna try a bit of AW grease on the friction plate to actually add a little friction! 😅😅👍👍

[@Paul__FC]

Last!/3rd! DAMNIT!!!

[@MarkBryanRC]

Never mind, bronze medal to you Paul! 🥉 You can't win 'em all, brother! 😁👍

[@Mindauxx]

Very good build video! Interesting, that they dont offer friction grease for that damper, that I have on my F103. There is a special damper grease for these flat formula one style dampers, maybe you should try one?

[@MarkBryanRC]

Glad you enjoyed it! 😉 Oh yes it says in the manual to put friction grease on the damper but it's not included in the kit! I will see if I can get some to try out, thanks for the tip! All the best! 😎 👍

[@Mindauxx]

@MarkBryanRC That grease is some kind of sticky one, and you can get different grades. Cheers. Beautiful build. I dont have sixwheeler and would like to get one.

[@MarkBryanRC]

Thanks again! Yes, I tried some Tamiya AW grease as it's very sticky, it really does make a big difference and I think it will work well! Cheers!

[@OlliRC1980]

Hallo Mark glad your hand is healed and we can enjoy your content again. I like the old F1 Cars and this Tyrell was the coolest of them all espacially the all Blue one. I know you´re just doing the Chassis but I´d like to know is the blue plastic of the body the same as the plastic from the Holiday Buggy? Can it be painted? Take care and cheers.

[@MarkBryanRC]

Hello Oliver and thanks for the kind thoughts - yes my thumb has healed much faster than I expected! 👍 Same here, I love classic F1 cars and agree the Tyrrell is one of the best! I can tell you the blue plastic body is made of ABS like the Blitzer Beetle and Sand Scorcher, so it should be OK to paint, fingers crossed! 🤞 Have a great weekend there my friend! 🍻😎👍

[@OlliRC1980]

@@MarkBryanRC Thank you very much

[@UncleBobsRC]

First time I ever say a Deans (T-Connector) shown in a Tamiya manual... What's up with that? She looks good man, looks real good... ATB mate!!

Hi Mark.Are replacement wheels and tyres,readily available for this? Nearly bought one last year,but heard tyres ect were hard to come by.
