Tamiya RC 1/10 Konghead 6x6 (G6-01) Off-Road Truck Kit

Take on six-wheeled off-road fun with the Tamiya RC 1/10 Konghead 6x6, Tamiya's first-ever six-wheeled RC vehicle, ready to pound dirt, asphalt lots, and neighbourhood streets across the country. Built on a new gear-driven 6WD chassis partially derived from the capable Tamiya GF-01 wheelie machine, this model delivers exceptional drive for extreme off-road fun, with a powerful gear-driven setup that allows it to take on slope inclines of up to 40 degrees.

Please note this is an unassembled kit requiring assembly; it ships as a build-it-yourself kit and does not arrive pre-built or ready to run.

The fun G6-01 chassis is based around a tough, slim-line monocoque frame, offering excellent off-road performance thanks to its 6-wheel drive system. Power comes from a motor positioned behind the front wheels, transmitted to the front, centre, and rear wheels via gears, with the gearbox sealed and integrated into the frame to protect against dust and debris. Built-in front, centre, and rear differential gears provide smooth cornering, while 6-wheel double wishbone suspension fitted with friction dampers keeps all six wheels planted. A 2-piece steering tie-rod setup with a left-mounted servo delivers excellent steering response, and with suspension reassembly plus a separately sold 4WS-function transmitter and RC equipment, the rear wheels can even be made steerable.
