Tamiya 1/6 Honda CB750 Racing 23210 Semi-Assembled Premium Model

About the CB750 Racing

When it was released in 1969, the Honda CB750 revolutionized the motorcycle industry. With such state-of-the-art features as a 4-cylinder SOHC engine, electric starter, and front disc brake,the production motorcycle was the perfect base for a racing version. New, lighter materials were used for various engine components, the brake system was modified to use two front disc and two rear leading trailing brakes for greater stopping power, and Dunlop racing tires. It was with this machine that American motorcycle racing legend Dick Mann rode to victory at the 1970 Daytona 200 race.

Tamiya 58400 1/10 R/C MINI Cooper S 2006 (M-03L)

The 2007 model year saw the release of a re-engineered MINI, which many have unofficially dubbed as the Mk.II MINI. Although it looks similar to the first generation MINI, it uses completely new body panels and also features such cosmetic changes as repositioned turn signals and new front grille. The Cooper S is the top-of-the-line model and is powered by a turbocharged 175hp 4-cylinder engine mated to either a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. The engine also has a unique Overboost function that pumps out more torque when it is needed, giving the car performance to match its sporty image.

About the Model
★ Compact M-03L chassis features front-mounted motor and front-wheel drive, just like the actual MINI, to enable realistic handling.
★ Easy-to-assembly monocoque frame is made from durable resin material.
★ 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension helps produce nimble cornering.
★ New body parts made from lightweight polycarbonate accurately reproduce the subtle changes of the MINI Cooper S 2006, including hood scoop and wing.
★ Separately-molded parts for side mirrors ensure sharp detail.
★ Stylish wheels equipped with synthetic rubber radial tires.

The latest addition to Tamiya’s lineup of R/C off-road buggies using the proven DT-02 2WD chassis is the Neo Falcon, which continues in the direction of adapting popular Mini 4WD PRO products into 1/10 scale R/C cars. This gives kids who enjoy Mini 4WD an easy way to naturally progress to the next level and it also provides parents who enjoy R/C with a way to connect to their kids and share the hobby with them.

★ 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension with oil dampers provide stable handling.

Tamiya 58403 1/10 R/C Fire Dragon

Tamiya’s Fire Dragon was a popular R/C off-road buggy that was produced in the late 1980s. The chassis was an evolution from the Thunder Shot chassis and featured a more conventional 4 oil damper suspension instead of the previous front mono-shock system for improved off-road handling. R/C fans who dreamed about owning this buggy as children have now grown up, and Tamiya is about to make their childhood dream a reality. We are proud to announce that the Fire Dragon will return in its original form.

About the Model
★ Nostalgic 1/10 scale R/C off-road buggy assembly kit.
★ Shaft-driven 4WD chassis features durable monocoque frame and a chassis cover to help safeguard internal mechanisms.

The IFMAR Electric 1/10 Off-Road Car World Championships are held in Japan this year and Team TRF will be there in force with their specially-tuned TRF501X machines.

Tamiya 42106 TRF416 Chassis Kit

In recent years, world-class on-road R/C touring car race events have encouraged the use of brushless motors in conjunction with event-controlled tires. To achieve success under such conditions, a fine balance must be achieved between handling and tire wear. It is with this in mind that Tamiya designers developed the concept of the brand new TRF416 chassis.

About the Model
# 1/10 scale assembly kit R/C model of the TRF416 chassis.
# New 2.25mm lower deck design emphasizes simplicity, while the 2mm upper deck has been lengthened.
# Front and rear bulkheads feature the same width while everything about the chassis down to the screw locations has been designed for optimum symmetry for better roll characteristics.
# In order to obtain maximum traction, both the motor and the center shaft positions have been moved back to shift more weight to the rear of the car.
# Drivetrain features front direct-drive, center direct-drive, and rear ball diff.
# Front and rear uprights equipped with 1050 size ball bearings.
# 37T pulleys for front and rear, while an 18T pulley is installed in the center.
# R/C system, body, tires, motor, ESC, battery & charger separately required.
