About This Items
The Land Cruiser is not only one of Japan's pioneers of cross-country 4WD, but also one of the world's best-known four-wheel drive vehicles.
The Toyota Land Cruiser is not only the pioneer of cross-country 4WD in Japan, but also one of the best-known four-wheel drive vehicles in the world.
This kit is a comical reproduction of the long-selling model "40" pickup truck, which was released from 1960 to 1984, and is an electric radio controlled car with a triangular-shaped track unit (crawler) in place of the front and rear tires.The chassis is a monocoque frame.
The chassis is based on the GF-01, a gear-driven 4WD with a motor mounted in the center of the monocoque frame that transmits power to the front and rear wheels via gears.
The track unit has a larger ground contact area than the tires, which not only produces excellent hill climbing performance, but also provides a stable grip and expands the field of driving on rough terrain such as snow fields, sandy beaches, and muddy roads, making it hard to get stuck.
The body is made of lightweight polycarbonate.A driver doll is included for even more fun.
GF-01FT chassis boasts outstanding rough road drivability.
The GF-01FT chassis is based on the GF-01 gear-drive 4WD chassis, with front and rear tires replaced with track units.
The track unit is mounted with upright parts, and driveshaft power is transmitted to the track by sprocket wheels.
Eight rollers are placed on the ground surface.
It also has a swing mechanism, and the third roller can move up and down independently.This further enhances the ground contact.
Of course, the generous load clearance provided by the track unit is also a big attraction on rough roads.
The track is made of resin and is assembled using metal pins.Compared to rubber tracks, these tracks have less drive loss and run smoothly even at low speeds.
Furthermore, two types of tracks are available: a flat standard type and a grocer type with protrusions.The choice can be made according to the surface to be used.
