Item no. 300058687 Item Name: 1:10 RC Ford Escort MkII Ral.Lac. MF-01X

RC rally models have captivated enthusiasts for years, and the Ford Escort MK.II is a classic of the genre. The Tamiya kit faithfully recreates this iconic vehicle, which competed in rally championships from 1975 to 1979. The Tamiya MF-01X chassis features four-wheel drive and rally-inspired block tires, providing the perfect platform for an authentic RC rally experience.

The kit includes a pre-painted, polycarbonate body in the classic white of the Ford Escort MK.II, along with separate attachments such as the bumper, side mirrors, and fog lights. The front and rear lamps are designed to accommodate 5mm LED lights (not included), adding to the model's realistic appearance. The decorative sheet includes sponsor logos, further enhancing the rally-inspired aesthetic.

Underneath the detailed body, the three-piece chassis frame houses a 540 torque-tuned electric motor, providing ample power for on and off-road adventures. The independent suspension and gimbal shaft-driven four-wheel drive system ensure superior handling and control, whether navigating tight turns or tackling rough terrain.

To complete the RC setup, users will need a remote control with a receiver, a steering servo, a 7.2V NiMH battery pack, and a charger. The kit is compatible with previous M-chassis body kits, offering flexibility for customization.

Before assembly, it is crucial to read and understand all instructions, especially if a child is involved. The use of tools, including knives, during the build process requires adult supervision to prevent injury. In case of assembly difficulties, it is recommended to seek assistance from an experienced RC modeler or a specialized retailer.

Tamiya, the leading Japanese manufacturer of electronics and model vehicles, stands behind the quality of this product. Each model undergoes a meticulous inspection, ensuring a high level of craftsmanship since the company's founding in 1946.

The 1:10 scale Ford Escort MK.II RC model kit offers an immersive rally experience, combining detailed polycarbonate bodywork, a capable four-wheel-drive chassis, and the renowned Tamiya brand's commitment to excellence. Whether you're a seasoned RC enthusiast or a newcomer to the hobby, this kit promises an engaging and authentic rally racing adventure.
