田宮 47524 1/10 RC遙控車 保時捷 934 (1976) 50週年紀念版

【A 50th Anniversary Model Crafted with Meticulous Attention to Detail】

Rewind back to 1976: the Porsche 934 was Tamiya first R/C car model. Based upon the Porsche 930 Turbo, the full-size car was developed to compete in international Group 4 sports car racing in that same year. Of the 31 examples produced of this dominant car, a number were run by private teams including that of Kremer Racing, which featured German air conditioning company Vaillant as its main sponsor, in a distinctive cobalt green livery that also featured their rabbit mascot. It took victory in Division 1 drivers’ standings for that season. The Tamiya R/C model was also massively popular, and we celebrate 50 years since its release with this special model featuring a realistic body and a chassis inspired by the full-size Porsche 934.

【RR Chassis – similar to the production car】

The original Tamiya model of the 934 paired a 1/12 scale plastic model body with a duralumin chassis and plastic deck for the R.C equipment; this 50th anniversary model has made the change to 1/10 scale and uses a lightweight polycarbonate body with a dedicated new chassis. Its reinforced plastic lower deck with integrated main and rear frames has the motor (sold separately) lengthwise at the rear-center powering the rear wheels much like on the real car. This model uses a 230 mm wheelbase, but the rear can be reconfigured to put it into a 251 mm wheelbase setup. The 4-wheel independent suspension uses front double wishbone and rear trailing arm setups with TRF dampers and stabilizers, while the drivetrain features multiple ball bearings and universal shafts for efficient drive.

《About the Chassis》

【Motor position】

• Motor is positioned centrally and lengthwise to make the chassis layout similar to that of the actual car. The power is transmitted as follows: Pinion gear A → Spur gear → Propeller shaft → Pinion gear B → Spur gear　→ Gear differential. (Spur gears are new 66T design and all gears are 04 module. Gear differential is the one used on the TB-05 chassis.)
• Change pinion gears A and B to adjust gear ratio.
• Parts around gearbox are aluminum.

【Rear trailing arms】

• Just like the actual car, the rear suspension uses trailing arms. Trailing arms are molded in carbon fiber reinforced plastic for superior rigidity.

【Glass fiber reinforced plastic lower deck】

• The lower deck with integrated main and rear frames is molded in glass fiber reinforced plastic.
• The kit-standard wheelbase is 230mm (trailing arm rear suspension). (The rear layout of the lower deck can be altered to change the wheelbase to 251mm (double wishbone rear suspension). Separately sold body is required for 251mm wheelbase.)

【Design features inspired by the actual car】

• Motor guard shape similar to muffler shape
• Chassis underside patterns
• Stay mount design similar to intercooler design
• Separately sold cooling fan is above the motor, like cooling fan duct of the actual car

【Body mounts】

• Choose whether to mount the body using holes (driving model) or magnets and metal parts (display model).
