When the McLaren Senna debuted at the 2018 Geneva International Motor Show it showcased extreme aero and a tribute to Ayrton Senna. The production car uses a 4-liter V8 twin-turbo rated near 800PS and was limited to 500 examples. Tamiya recreates those design elements in an accurate polycarbonate shell for the 1/10 scale model.
The TT-02 is popular for offering a balance between ease of build and tuning scope. Its shaft-driven 4WD and longitudinal layout put the battery on the left and motor on the right to keep weight distribution sensible. Matching suspension arms and uprights simplify repairs, and the chassis supports multiple wheelbase, ground clearance and track positions plus ten gear ratio options for fine tuning.
The body is formed from polycarbonate and includes ABS side mirrors and a rear wing to match the Senna's profile. Large urethane bumpers add resilience and the model rolls on 10-spoke gun-metal wheels fitted with racing radial tyres. Expect to paint, attach parts and apply decals during assembly to achieve the finished look.
For those who enjoy scale assembly and setup adjustments, the Tamiya McLaren Senna on the TT-02 chassis provides a realistic platform that responds well to upgrades and tuning.
