Tamiya 58497 1/10 R/C Racing truck Vajra

This 1/10 scale R/C assembly kit racing truck features a lengthened version of the chassis from Item 58489 Avante (2011) and a lightning-themed livery inspired by its namesake ceremonial weapon. New 2.5mm thick carbon fiber lower & upper decks extend the wheelbase by 15mm to 275mm and the truck also features lightweight resin lower suspension arms. The steering plate and F/R damper stays are also made from durable carbon-fiber material. In addition, F/R assembly universal shafts and full-ball bearings help minimize friction loss. The 110mm diameter V-pattern block tires give the truck an aggressive, purposeful stance.

Chassis features 2mm thick carbon-fiber upper and lower decks with the battery and servo mounted in between them. A highly-efficient shaft-driven 4WD setup with F/R ball differentials effectively transfers the power to all four wheels. 26 ball bearings and F/R assembly drive shafts greatly reduce friction loss by the drivetrain components. 4-wheel double wishbone suspension features resin lower arms and CVA shock units which are attached to tough, 3.5mm thick carbon-fiber damper stays. The steering system features a 2mm thick carbon-fiber steering plate which contributes to sharp handling response.
