Tamiya 58657 Land Rover Defender 90 4WD 1/10 CC-01 Chassis

This is a radio control assembly kit of the Land Rover Defender. It is an enduring vehicle that traces its lineage back to the original Land Rover cars first released in the immediate post-WWII era. This model recreates an early version of the Defender 90 (named on account of its wheelbase length), the shorter wheelbase variant of the car.

Land Rover Legend

Loved by millions across the world for its superb 4WD performance and distincive functional form, the Land Rover Defender had a long production run from 1948 until 2016. This R/C model assembly kit recreates the short wheelbase Defender 90 variant, with the unmistakeable form captured by a polycarbonate body featuring front and rear light cases which are compatible with separately sold LEDs. Separate molded parts are included to depict features such as the outer roll cage, front grille and spare tire cover. The CC-01 chassis is a great base, providing a sure-footed drive whether on-road or off; it is paired with matte plated wheels and treaded tires.

The All-Terrain CC-01 Chassis

The CC-01's highly reliable and efficient full-time 4WD system features a longitudinally-positioned motor, which transmits power to the front wheels via the gearbox and to the rear wheels via propeller shaft with universal joints. Front and rear differentials enable smooth cornering, and for even greater off-road performance on rough terrain, the rear differential may be locked during assembly. The chassis suspension employs double-wishbone front upper single links and lower H-shaped arms plus rear rigid suspension. With CVA oil dampers front and rear, there's enough cushion to take on even the roughest surfaces.
