This highly detailed and well crafted body comes unpainted and with the classic "Carrera" decal. You can paint this in the traditional colours or create your own one of a kind art piece.

Additional Scale Detail

Separate headlight cases, ABS plastic side mirrors, and ABS plastic rear wing provide a high level of scale realism, making this model stand out.

Adjustable Chassis Set Ups

Offers a unique build experience and the ability to switch between drive configurations (Front/Mid-Rear) and wheelbase lengths for customised performance.

High Spec Suspension Design

Double wishbone design on all four wheels with friction dampers provides a solid foundation, with upgrade potential to TRF Special Dampers available.

Geared Differentials

Plastic 4-bevel differential gear ensures smooth power delivery and is compatible with performance-enhancing hop-ups like ball differentials.

Easy Maintenance

Unitised sections (motor mount, suspension) streamline assembly and make adjustments or repairs quick and straightforward.

Three Point Steering System

The BT-01 features a unique three-section steering system that delivers exceptional responsiveness and control. The servo is strategically positioned at the rear right, connected to the steering linkage via a long link rod for optimal efficiency. 

Easy Motor Access

Maintenance is made easy thanks to the BT-01's unitised motor mount. Secured with just two screws, it allows for quick and easy access to the motor for adjustments or upgrades. 

Adjustable Mid Mount Motor

The BT-01's adjustable midship motor layout enhances balance and handling. Positioned on the rear left, the motor delivers power smoothly to the rear wheels through a reliable propeller shaft but can also be moved to the front right for a higher level of weight bias customisability. 

Easy Battery Tray Access

The BT-01 allows for quick and easy battery swaps with the convenient flip-up holder. Simply flip the holder open to access the battery compartment, making battery changes as quick and easy as possible.
