The Tamiya M-05 Mini Cooper Rally is a brilliant 1/10 scale replica that brings the glory of the 1994 Monte Carlo Rally right to your driveway. This assembly kit features the classic Mini Cooper body on the nimble M-05 chassis, which puts the motor and drivetrain at the front just like the real car. It is a fantastic project for anyone who loves building their own machine from the ground up, and it comes with a set of gold metal-plated wheels as a special bonus to make your build stand out.
Driving this Mini is a blast thanks to its low centre of gravity and short wheelbase, which make it incredibly agile around tight corners. The semi-monocoque frame is tough and easy to put together, while the independent suspension and three-piece steering linkage keep the car stable even when you are pushing it for speed. With its realistic polycarbonate body and detailed stickers, this kit is a perfect way to celebrate one of the most famous rally cars in history.
The car's weight distribution is carefully balanced for optimal performance. The RC mechanism is mounted at the rear, with the steering servo on the centreline and the receiver and ESC strategically placed on either side.
Nimble handling and precise control is easy with the M-05 chassis. The lightweight and durable semi-monocoque frame, combined with a low centre of gravity and responsive suspension, provides exceptional agility and stability. Realistic tyres and 11-spoke wheels complete the package.
The innovative three-piece wiper-type steering wheel improves steering precision and responsiveness, optimising the car's handling characteristics during suspension movement.
