The Tamiya 47517 RC model kit reproduces the Audi R8 LMS 2008 GT3 race car in 1:10 scale with impressive detail fidelity and authentic design. This remote-controlled vehicle features a pre-painted polycarbonate body in light gray with black accents and tinted windows, delivered ready for assembly. The TT-02 chassis provides a balanced all-wheel-drive system with a shaft-driven construction for reliable performance and stability. With a length of 434 mm, a width of 194 mm, and a height of 120 mm with a wheelbase of 257 mm, this model captures the precise dimensions of the original race car. It includes realistic black 16-spoke wheels with slick tires for optimal grip, along with decals and window masking film for customization. Powered by a 540-Type Torque Tuned brushed motor and compatible with a Hobbywing ESC, the kit requires a 2-channel transmitter, steering servo, and a 7.2-7.4V battery with charger for operation. The modular chassis design offers adjustable gear ratios and ground clearance settings, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced RC enthusiasts. Made from durable plastic materials, this model kit emphasizes engineering precision and authentic racing aesthetics without the need for additional painting. As a successor to previous Tamiya RC kits, it upholds the brand's reputation for quality construction and realistic detailing. This product appeals to adult hobbyists interested in scale modeling and remote-controlled vehicles, providing a rewarding assembly experience with reliable performance features.
