Tamiya Radio Control Kit
Mini Cooper Racing (MB-01) (1/10) 58747
The Mini Cooper Racing (MB-01) from Tamiya brings back one of Britain’s most beloved icons in 1/10 scale radio control form. Based on the Mini designed by the British Motor Corporation between 1959 and 2000, this kit captures the distinctive character of the original compact car that redefined small vehicle design. The front-wheel drive layout mirrors the real Mini’s innovative engineering, combining efficient packaging with dynamic handling in a compact frame.
The MB-01 chassis is a versatile 2WD platform that allows a choice of three wheelbase lengths and both front- or rear-wheel drive configurations. It uses a symmetrical double wishbone suspension system with friction dampers for smooth handling. The modular design enables easy assembly and maintenance, while the polycarbonate body shell accurately replicates the classic Mini’s racing lines.
