The Farm King Wheelie: A Tribute to Farming Fun
Step into the whimsical world of RC with the Tamiya Farm King Wheelie, a model that pays homage to the hardworking tractors of rural life, but with a playful twist. Expertly constructed by Tamiya's renowned builders, this ready-to-run masterpiece offers immediate enjoyment right out of the box. All you need to get started is a handful of AA batteries for the transmitter and your choice of battery pack and charger, both sold separately.
A Design That's Both Playful and Practical
At first glance, the Farm King Wheelie stands out with its unique, comically-styled polycarbonate body. The exaggerated front mask, oversized rear plow, and dual exhaust pipes give it a charming yet rugged appearance. This model isn't just about looks; it's designed for action, sporting a driver figure complete with a ten-gallon hat that adds character to every run.
Unmatched Performance on the WR-02G Chassis
The WR-02G chassis is the backbone of this spirited monster truck, featuring a sturdy monocoque frame that ensures durability and strength. The chassis is fitted with different-sized wheels—97mm at the front and 130mm at the rear—providing a realistic scale presence and enhancing the overall driving experience. The centrally aligned motor delivers power efficiently to the rear wheels through a fully enclosed gearbox with a gear differential, ensuring smooth and reliable performance.
Suspension and Wheelie Capabilities
Equipped with a 4-wheel double wishbone suspension system, the Farm King Wheelie navigates bumps and uneven terrain with ease, offering a remarkably realistic driving experience. The addition of a wheelie bar means that you can enjoy thrilling wheelie action, making every drive an adventure that will keep you coming back for more.
Making Farmin' Fun!
This factory finished R/C model recreates the hard-working mainstay of farm life, the tractor. The finished polycarbonate body features a comically-styled front mask over the bonnet, a large plow on the rear and exhaust pipes on either side of the driver's seat. A painted driver figure with ten-gallon hat is pre-attached. The WR-02G chassis features a heavy duty monocoque frame which is equipped with 97mm and 130mm diameter wheels on the front and rear respectively for a realistic scale presence. Motor is positioned along the centerline of the chassis and power is delivered to the rear wheels via fully-enclosed gearbox equipped with a differential. 4-wheel double wishbone suspension makes for realistic mechanism. Designed with a wheelie bar to enable fun, wheels in the air driving action, this tractor definitely puts the fun into farming!
The rear-wheel drive WR-02G chassis was made for rough riding! Shielded by side plates and held tightly in place by the monocoque frame, the gearbox is well-protected from impact, and the different sized front and rear wheels cushion the model's moves. Power is provided to the rear wheels by a centrally-positioned motor, and transmitted via fully-enclosed gearbox equipped with a differential. The location of the battery pack is key: its longitudinally-placed high position in the rear ensures that when the model accelerates, the front naturally rises in a wheelie. As it does, the wheelie bar at the rear stops the model from toppling over, and in doing so maintains a great wheelie! Steering servo is placed along the center of the chassis, and combines with the 2-piece tie rod for precision steering. The suspension is of the tough 4-wheel double-wishbone variety.
2.4GHz Transmitter included
In addition to the painted body, this item also includes a wheel-type transmitter, battery pack and charger to allow instant enjoyment of driving. (*Battery pack and charger are included for Japan market only.) The 2.4GHz transmitter eliminates the need for frequency crystals, and is factory-paired with the receiver in the model to ensure that the receiver communicates with that transmitter only. Transmitter features detachable grip covers to match your hand size as well as a throttle trigger cover to increase the size of the throttle trigger for easier operation.
