Just in time for the holidays, Tamiya has announced 3 hot models will be released in RTR form.
The first is the 1:10 scale XBS Motul Autech Nissan GT-R based on Tamiya’s TT-01 Type ES onroad chassis. This setup comes with 4WD and a fully independent suspension. It is completely built and uses Tamiya’s TEU-105BK ESC, Mabuchi brushed motor and a Finespec 2.4GHz radio system already installed. The body comes pre-painted, pre-cut and pre-stickered and looks absolutely amazing.
The second ride is another 1:10 scale, this time modeled after the Mazda Roadster. It used the M-05, FWD mini chassis and also uses a Mabuchi brushed motor, TEU-105BK ESC and Finespec 2.4GHz radio system, both pre-installed. The Roadster body also comes pre-painted, pre-cut and pre-stickered. The M-05 has a HUGE following with lots of aftermarket support so you’ll have a great time upgrading this bad boy.
The final RTR of the 3 is the 1:24 scale Heavy Dump Truck. This monster of a truck rolls on Tamiya’s GF-01 chassis and, of course, uses a Mabuchi brushed motor, TEU-105BK ESC and Finespec 2.4GHz radio system. It’s 4WD platform allows for sure-footedness while hauling the rocks, dirt or mud and studded tires provide excellent grip. The best part, though, is the amazing body. It is molded out of strong, ABS and colored yellow for a realistic look. The cab and rear bed parts are separate pieces.
All 3 require a battery and charger.
