The Tamiya 43531 - 1/10 Nitro R/C Car Vodafone AMG-Mercedes C-Class DTM 2006 faithfully echoes the competition car raced by Bernd Schneider in 2006, including its recognizable red and black livery. The model aims to provide both display quality and functional racing lines when set up correctly.
The robust TNS-FD platform underpins the model, featuring a 2.5mm aluminum lower deck paired with a reinforced resin upper deck to reduce unwanted flex. Propulsion is provided by the FS-12FD 2.1cc engine, with power routed through differentials into a shaft-driven full-time 4WD arrangement for steady traction.
Handling is tuned through four-wheel double wishbone suspension fitted with oil dampers to control body motion and tyre contact. The sizable disc brake gives the vehicle controlled stopping power that matches its nitro acceleration.
For enthusiasts who prefer nitro mechanics and period liveries, the Tamiya 43531 offers a balanced chassis and detailed styling that reward careful setup and regular maintenance.
