Porsche 956 heritage recreated in 1/10 scale with Tamiya 47508

The Tamiya 47508 Porsche 956 Group C kit gives RC fans a chance to build a faithful 1/10 replica of the iconic endurance racer. It balances authentic period styling with practical engineering, producing a model that looks great and performs well on smooth on-road circuits.

Bodywork and period detailing

The long-tail shell is formed from lightweight polycarbonate to hold realistic curves while staying tough. Separate moulded front and rear light cases plus the wing let builders replicate original assembly steps, and black ABS mirrors and wing stays add accurate trim to the finished car.

Composite chassis and drivetrain for sharp handling

Under the body, a composite chassis combines an ABS bathtub, FRP plates and space frame elements to create rigidity with a compliant suspension. The 540 Sport-Tuned motor drives a spur and pinion direct setup with a ball pressure plate differential for smooth power delivery and confident cornering.

Wheels and tyres for on-road grip

Dish-style front wheels and 5-spoke rear wheels are paired with high-grip sponge tyres tailored to paved surfaces. Wheels come unpainted, offering scope for custom colour schemes or period-correct liveries.

Yes. A careful beginner can finish the build by following the instructions step by step; the kit is a good way to learn assembly, painting and basic tuning techniques.
You will need a 2-channel transmitter and receiver, a steering servo, an ESC suitable for a 540 brushed motor, a 7.2V battery pack with charger, plus paints for the body and wheels.
Use polycarbonate-compatible paints applied to the inside of the shell for best adhesion. Mask carefully for livery details and allow proper drying time before fitting the body to the chassis.
Small adjustments like ride height, toe and camber, tyre compound choice and correct gear mesh will produce the biggest gains on paved tracks.
