Tamiya XR311 Combat Support Vehicle

2WD Military Support Vehicle. 2WD rear-wheel drive with a longitudinally mounted engine and differential. ABS plastic body with many details and a driver figure. Duralumin frame chassis. Independent wheel suspension with torsion bar springs. Reissue of the first Tamiya RC model with movable suspension from 1977. Includes a 540 brushed motor. A brushed motor is particularly convincing due to its simple construction and resulting ease of maintenance. Additionally, the brushed motor is significantly cheaper to purchase compared to a brushless motor. Buggies typically feature tires with a pronounced off-road profile and a well-tuned suspension. This makes them ideal models for tough off-road use. The gearboxes are often closed, thus protecting against incoming dirt. Furthermore, the shock absorbers usually operate hydraulically and can be tuned with different oils. Difficulty level: Beginner. No special prior knowledge in model building is required for this product. The necessary materials for completion and commissioning are usually fully included in the delivery. Kits are model components that need to be assembled and may require additional parts. This allows for various configuration options but also requires some prior knowledge in model building.
