The Timeless Appeal of the Tamiya 47362 Porsche 934 Black Edition
The Tamiya 47362 Porsche 934 Black Edition is a nod to racing history and Tamiya's pioneering spirit in the RC world. The original Porsche 934 was a formidable competitor in the 1970s, making its mark in motorsports. Tamiya's recreation captures this essence with an authentic polycarbonate body that showcases the iconic flared fenders and pronounced front spoiler. Additional details like the rear wing and side mirrors are crafted separately, while metal-plated light cases and LEDs enhance realism when displayed or raced.
Performance Meets Precision: The TA02SW Chassis
Underneath the sleek bodywork lies the TA02SW chassis, engineered for performance with a shaft-driven 4WD system. This setup features a short 236mm wheelbase and wide tread, embodying the classic Porsche stance. The FRP double-deck frame provides rigidity and stability, while the 4-wheel double wishbone suspension, complete with CVA oil dampers, ensures smooth handling. The ball differential at the rear and bevel differential at the front offer precision control, making it ideal for enthusiasts who appreciate fine-tuning their ride.
Advanced Components for Enthusiasts
This kit comes equipped with high-spec components such as FRP damper stays, universal shafts, a hard propeller shaft, aluminum motor mount, and full ball bearings, promising an advanced driving experience. The 2-piece wheels, paired with wide rear tires and inner sponges, add to the model's authenticity and performance. The Type 540 motor powers this machine, demanding an electronic speed controller (sold separately) for optimal operation.
