Recreate a Rally Icon - Opel Kadett GT/E

This kit recreates the Opel Kadett GT/E at 1/10 scale, pairing a faithful body shell with the MB-01 chassis for a rewarding build. It is suited to enthusiasts who enjoy hands-on assembly and tuning for road and light rally environments.

MB-01 Chassis - Configurable Layouts

The MB-01 chassis provides multiple setup choices, including three wheelbase lengths and selectable front or rear-wheel drive. For rear-wheel drive, you can choose a low or high motor position to refine the car's handling characteristics.

Handling, Weight and Required Gear

The polycarbonate body is lightweight yet sturdy, and the 239mm long wheelbase plus 60mm tyres help the model feel stable in turns. To complete the car you will need a 2-channel radio system, a steering servo, an ESC, and a compatible battery and charger.

Whether youre restoring a classic rally look or building a weekend runner, the Opel Kadett GT/E on the MB-01 is a flexible project that responds well to setup tweaks and modest upgrades.

The MB-01 is designed for hobbyist use and club events. With suspension upgrades and careful setup it can be made competitive on suitable classes, but it is not a purpose-built race chassis.
Friction dampers are simple and low maintenance, giving a firm feel ideal for on-road performance. Oil shocks provide more tuning range and better heat management for aggressive driving.
Yes, a brushless motor can be fitted provided the motor size and ESC are compatible with the 1/10 MB-01 layout and mounting space.
