Classic Porsche Styling in RC Form

The Tamiya Porsche 911 Carrera RSR 2.8 delivers a faithful miniature of the classic race car, complete with a pre-painted polycarbonate shell that reduces prep time and looks great on display or at the track. Its limited edition run makes it a strong choice for collectors who still want to drive their models.

Characteristics of the BT-01 Platform

The BT-01 platform features a short wheelbase and a mid-mounted rear motor to reproduce the driving characteristics of the real 911. This configuration emphasises rear-drive behaviour and gives the model agile cornering on smooth surfaces.

Track-Ready Aesthetics and Hardware

Stock silver wheels and slick tyres present a race-oriented appearance while delivering dependable grip on tarmac. The included 540 brushed motor and ESC let you focus on electronics like a 2-channel radio, steering servo and a 7.2-7.4V battery to finish the setup.

Assembly Friendly with Fine Scale Detail

Details such as smoke-tinted glazing and separate side mirror pieces enhance realism, while pre-cut arches and body mount holes speed up the build. The balance of detail and simplicity suits both new builders and hobbyists who like to tweak set-up.

The Tamiya Porsche 911 Carrera RSR 2.8 blends scale accuracy with a ready-to-run chassis layout, making it a rewarding model for both display and club-level track runs.

Basic modelling tools, a hobby knife and a small screwdriver set will handle most of the assembly. Polycarbonate-safe paints or trims are optional but not required due to the pre-painted body.
Yes, owners often fit different tyre compounds or tread patterns for specific surfaces. Ensure the replacement tyres match the wheel diameter and width specified by the kit.
The BT-01 offers a realistic handling platform for club-level on-road events. For competitive classes, check event rules on permitted modifications and electronics.
Use gentle cleaning with a soft cloth and avoid abrasive chemicals. If you plan to race hard, consider a clear protective film or a thin layer of suitable varnish compatible with polycarbonate bodies.
