question about tamiya's 1/16 rc kublewagen

[mcevoyi]

Hi all

Can any one help ...?

Tamiya's kublewagen ....any one know if the rc chassis is used on any other of there kits ? Or is it just the kublewagen

I see with interest that revell have a vw beetle kit that's now dirt cheap ..and i wanted to do an army vw .....

Could be fun ?

The rc Tamiya kubelwagen has its own chassis its not used on any others

TAMIYA does make a VW beetle... it's 1/10th scale... but with your skill set ... I'm sure you would have no problem retrofitting parts


I would say the largest barrier is the nature of the beast that is Volkswagen... they all had that "flat" pan chassis instead of a frame...so doing a prototypical model would be a challenge to say the least


Have a good one Mcevoyi
