Overview of the Tamiya 57890 XB Heavy Dump Truck

The Tamiya 57890 XB Heavy Dump Truck brings a compact, rugged 1/24 scale option to hobbyists who want a ready-to-run model that can handle varied ground. Built on the GF-01 chassis, this 4WD truck pairs a torque-tuned 540-brushed motor with a sealed drivetrain to deliver dependable low-speed pulling power across loose or firm surfaces.

GF-01 Chassis Details

The GF-01 chassis is built for adaptable trail use, featuring a sealed gearbox with front and rear gear differentials for consistent power to each wheel. Independent double wishbone suspension and friction dampers help keep the wheels in contact with uneven ground, while the dog bone drive line and bell-crank steering provide simple, serviceable mechanics for field repairs.

Body Styling and Practical Features

The model uses an injection-moulded resin body with a separate cab and rear bed for a realistic appearance. The rear bed can be set flat or raised using the stays and snap pins, giving basic load simulation. The kit is moulded in standout yellow for the body and deep rim wheels, and it ships with a pre-installed Finespec 2.4GHz R/C system plus a TEU-105BK ESC so you can start driving after fitting a compatible battery and charger.

This Tamiya 57890 XB Heavy Dump Truck suits hobbyists who want a solid, easy-to-maintain 1/24 scale truck for casual off-road runs and backyard trials. Its straightforward build and durable layout make it a practical pick for both new and experienced drivers.
