Tamiya 58657 Land Rover Defender 90 (CC-01)


Another big name joins the world of Tamiya R/C: the Land Rover Defender 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 (so named on account of its wheelbase length), the shorter wheelbase variant of the car.

About the Model • This is a 1/10 scale R/C model assembly kit. Length: 457mm, width: 200mm, height: 214mm, wheelbase: 242mm. • The classic Defender 90 form is accurately captured by the polycarbonate body, with slide molding used for great detail such as rear panel surfaces. • Includes separately molded parts for grille, side mirrors, light cases and tire cover. • Compatible with 5mm-diameter LEDs (White) x2 for headlights and 5mm-diameter LEDs x6 for the rear. • Matte plated wheels are paired with realistic tires featuring authentic tread pattern. • Highly reliable CC-01 chassis features a full-time 4WD system and front double wishbone, rear 4-link rigid suspension equipped with 4 CVA oil dampers. • An expansive range of option parts is available to customize the CC-01 chassis.

The annual summer big event “Fujitsu dry battery provided Mini 4WD Japan Cup 2018” will be held again this year! In 2018 celebrating 30 years since the Japan Cup held, we started from the Tokyo convention on June 16, and traveled all over Japan until October’s championship decision. MC Gutz will explain the points of the section on the official course “Japan Cup 30 Year Classic Circuit 2018” with the origin returning to the concept.
