Tamiya KING YELLOW 6X6 (G6-01) 58653

The Tamiya 1/18 R/C 'KING YELLOW' 6x6 Off Road School Bus Model Kit.

Tamiya's newest big-wheeled 6WD model - the KING YELLOW 6x6! This model utilizes a new gear driven 6WD chassis which used the GF-01 as a starting point. The excellent drive it provides will make for supremely fun off-road driving.

The 6WD chassis employs 3 differential gears to transmit power from the front-centre-mounted motor to all of the model's wheels. These differentials are encased in the durable monocoque. 6-wheel independent double-wishbone suspension is paired with friction dampers.

The brand new polycarbonate body was inspired by a classic American School Bus, giving it a true 'Old School' feel.

The kit manual build creates a front wheel-steering model. It also includes instructions to re-assemble it into a 4-Wheel Steering model with steerable rear wheels. Separately-sold 4WS function transmitter and R/C equipment are required. The model is compatible with many GF-01 chassis Hop Up Option and spare parts.

Its powerful gear-driven setup allows the King Yellow to take on slopes of up to 40 degrees -the perfect outdoor drive all riding on massive deep rim wheels.
