Bringing a DTM Classic Back to Life with Tamiya 47461

The Tamiya 47461 - 1/10 Opel Calibra V6 recreates a 1994 DTM racer with accurate body lines and period details. This kit captures the look of the Joest Racing entry and is aimed at hobbyists who value authentic scale appearance and a rewarding build.

TA-02 Platform: Balanced 4WD Performance

The TA-02 chassis provides a rugged bathtub frame and a shaft-driven 4WD layout for dependable traction. Its 4-wheel double wishbone suspension paired with CVA oil dampers delivers composed handling and makes the car predictable on varied surfaces.

Bodywork and Scale Detailing

The Calibra V6 shell is moulded in clear polycarbonate for accurate contours and easy painting. Separate trim pieces like mirrors and wipers plus a dedicated rear wing add realism, and the included decal sheets and mask stickers simplify accurate livery work.

Motor Options and Electronics Fitment

This kit comes with a 540-brushed motor and an ESC that accepts sensored brushless systems, letting you upgrade power if desired. You will need a 2-channel radio, steering servo, and a 7.2-7.4V battery pack to finish the build and get on track.
