Imagine cruising to school in a machine that turns heads and eats rough ground. Enter the Tamiya 58653 King Yellow G6-01, a 1/10 scale R/C that blends classic school bus looks with monster truck capability. Built on the proven G6-01 platform, it balances show-stopping style with rugged engineering.
The polycarbonate shell on this model emphasises realism and toughness. It includes roof lights and a stop sign, plus vivid stickers and paint masks for neat detailing. Matte silver deep rim wheels and chunky 113mm tyres give it the stance and traction needed for serious off-road use.
The core of the build is the G6-01 monocoque chassis, engineered for a compact but strong layout. Power flows from a centrally mounted motor through a gear-driven system into sealed gearboxes and three bevel differentials for reliable 6WD traction. Independent double wishbone suspension with friction dampers keeps the model composed over varied terrain.
The stock two-piece steering tie-rod and single servo provide solid steering response out of the box. For more manoeuvrability you can fit a separate 4WS-capable transmitter to enable rear-wheel steering. The platform also accepts common upgrades like higher torque servos and tighter tyres to match your driving style.
The Tamiya King Yellow G6-01 is a standout kit for builders who want character plus capability. With a realistic body and a rugged 6WD base, it suits collectors and trail riders alike and rewards modest upgrades for improved handling.
