Heritage Restored: Tamiya Land Rover Defender 90 47478-60A

The Land Rover Defender profile is instantly recognizable to RC trail riders and scale fans alike. This limited-run Tamiya kit, finished in light blue, blends classic Defender styling with Tamiya engineering. It is aimed at collectors and drivers who want a realistic scale truck that performs on rough terrain.

CC-02 Chassis: Designed for Trail Toughness

Under the body sits the CC-02 ladder frame chassis built to tackle varied surfaces. The 4WD layout with a longitudinal motor located behind the front axle powers separate gearbox and transfer case assemblies. Propeller shafts deliver torque to the differentials, while the four-link rigid suspension with CVA oil dampers provides controlled articulation for technical routes.

Tuning and Upgrades: Make It Your Own

Owners can personalise the Defender via the wide selection of Hop-Up Options for the CC-02 platform. Adjustable gear ratios let you tune for extra low-end torque or a freer top end depending on whether you prefer slow rock crawling or quicker trail runs.

Scale Looks and Practical Detail

The pre-painted polycarbonate shell captures Defender character while separate moulded parts for the grille, mirrors, light cases and external roll cages add realistic touches. Black ABS resin wheels fitted with semi-pneumatic all-terrain tyres give the model a balanced mix of scale appearance and usable traction.

The Tamiya Land Rover Defender 90 47478-60A pairs authentic scale styling with a capable CC-02 platform, offering a rewarding build and plenty of scope for trail-focused upgrades.

Assembly requires patience and basic modelling skills, but the instructions are clear. New builders should take their time with suspension and drivetrain steps and test fit parts before final assembly.
Pick an ESC rated for a 540 brushed motor and a steering servo with good torque. Use a 7.2-7.4V battery pack that fits the chassis layout and a simple 2-channel radio to keep the setup practical for trail use.
The body and tyres handle light wet conditions, but protect exposed electronics and the gearbox. Avoid deep water and check for trapped moisture after running to prevent corrosion.
Upgrading dampers, choosing softer compound tyres, and fitting a higher torque steering servo will noticeably improve traction and control on technical rock and root sections.
