This Tamiya Toyota Land Cruiser 40 model on the GF-01 chassis suits builders who want a tough-looking scale truck for trail and backyard runs. It pairs the Land Cruiser's classic silhouette with a practical 4WD layout for confident driving.
The GF-01 moves beyond older 2WD designs by using a centre motor and dual gearbox system for front and rear drive. That configuration helps the model maintain composure on loose or uneven ground and improves overall balance.
The polycarbonate pick-up body captures the Land Cruiser 40 proportions, with dimensions around 333mm long and 244mm wide. Metal-plated 5-spoke wheels and 110mm block tyres complete the model's tough off-road appearance.
Independent double wishbone suspension with friction dampers delivers controlled movement, while the sealed gear differential keeps driveline wear to a minimum. The 540 Torque Tuned motor included gives ample, user-friendly power for most off-road scenarios.
Whether you are new to RC or looking for a reliable scale runner, the GF-01 based Land Cruiser 40 offers a straightforward build and dependable on-track manners, ready to accept further tuning.
