The Legendary Cayenne S Transsyberia: A Rally Icon in RC Form
The Tamiya 58406 Cayenne S Transsyberia embodies the spirit of endurance and adventure. Modeled after the real-world Porsche Cayenne S that conquered the 2007 Transsyberia Rally, this 1/10 scale RC kit captures both the rugged aesthetics and robust performance of its namesake. The rally spanned a challenging 7,100 kilometers from Moscow to Ulaanbaatar, testing the limits of both vehicle and driver. This model pays homage to those victorious Cayennes with its detailed design and high-performance capabilities.
Advanced Engineering with the DF01 Chassis
At the heart of this RC marvel is the DF01 chassis, known for its reliability and versatility. The shaft-driven 4WD system ensures stable power distribution across all terrains, making it ideal for off-road racing. The double wishbone suspension paired with oil dampers offers exceptional shock absorption, allowing for smooth handling over rough surfaces. These features make the DF01 chassis a favorite among RC enthusiasts looking for durability and precision.
Realistic Design and Detailing
Crafted with a focus on realism, the Cayenne S Transsyberia's body is made from lightweight yet durable polycarbonate. The separate vacuum-molded front and rear bumpers, along with ABS resin parts like side mirrors, fog lamps, and snorkel, add layers of authenticity. The model also includes a detailed sticker set to replicate the No.12 car, enhancing its visual appeal.
Perfect for Hobbyists and Collectors Alike
This kit is not just about looks; it's about the experience. Whether you're a seasoned racer or a collector, the Cayenne S Transsyberia offers a rewarding build and driving experience. The realistic wheels with thin spokes are mounted with off-road tires, ensuring excellent traction on diverse terrains. Its compatibility with a 2-channel R/C system and the requirement for a 7.2V battery pack and charger (sold separately) means you can customize your setup to suit your racing style.
