Overview

Please Note:

This kit comes without a Servo, Battery, Charger, or Transmitter and will come with an unpainted body that may require cutting and drilling.

This R/C model assembly kit recreates the Team REINERT Racing MAN TGS truck which starred on the 2016 European truck racing circuit. The realistic body is a 4-piece set made from lightweight and durable polycarbonate, with separately moulded plastic side mirrors, coupler, and rear bumper parts. Stickers are included in the kit to recreate the truck's numerous sponsor markings and logos. The TT-01 Type-E chassis is a proven performer, fitted with dedicated racing truck model wheels and tyres.

The bathtub frame of the shaft-driven 4WD TT-01 Type-E has its motor and battery close to the ground for lower centre of gravity and optimum balance. A fibreglass-reinforced nylon upper deck and gear covers improve rigidity, and a 3-piece tie rod provides smoother steering action. 4-wheel double wishbone suspension and front and rear differential gears produce excellent operating ability. 70mm-diameter radial tyres are paired with metal-plated wheels; the high sidewalls make for forgiving turns.

Note

This body shell comes completely unpainted and may or may not require body post holes to be drilled. Only use a polycarbonate-style paint such as the Tamiya PS series to finish these bodies, as standard paints will not adhere and/or cause damage to the body shell's surface.
