Tamiya 58721 Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR Berlina Corse Electric RC Car Kit w/o ESC
The inception of the M-chassis series traces back to December 1994, gaining immense popularity due to its cost-effective kits offering a wide array of body choices, user-friendly maintenance, and ease of control for enthusiasts at all levels. Now, introducing the brand-new MB-01!
The innovative MB-01 chassis upholds this legacy by allowing for six distinct setups. Users can select from three wheelbase options and opt for either a front- or rear-wheel drive system. The first body designed for this chassis is a tribute to the Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR Berlina Corse, a vehicle finely tuned from the compact 2-door Fiat 600.
The MB-01 Chassis:
This compact, 2WD MB-01 chassis provides flexibility with three wheelbase choices and the option for a front- or rear-wheel drive system. The model adopts a midship motor with a rear-wheel drive setup. Switching between front- and rear-wheel drive is seamless – users can alter attachment directions of final gears and steering linkage. For rear-wheel drive cars, a choice of low or high motor position is available without requiring the removal of the battery pack, motor, or R/C equipment setups from the center frame. The 4-wheel double wishbone suspension embodies a symmetrical structure and friction dampers. Convenient unitized sections, such as the motor mount, final gears, and suspension, facilitate easy assembly and effective maintenance.
