Trail-Ready Scale Detail on the CC-02 G 500
For hobbyists who enjoy technical trail running, the Tamiya CC-02 platform delivers a balance of scale realism and rugged design. This build features a faithful Mercedes-Benz G 500 body shell at 1/10 scale that captures the SUVs proportions while being tough enough for off-road use.
Authentic Exterior and Lighting Details
The polycarbonate shell reproduces the G 500s bold lines and includes separate pieces for grille, mirrors, and the spare tyre cover for a more accurate finish. It also comes ready to accept the TLU-01 LED Light Unit for practical illumination on evening runs.
Rugged Ladder Frame Construction
The CC-02 uses a ladder frame layout similar to full-size off-roaders, positioning the motor behind the front axle with a dedicated gearbox and transfer case. That arrangement helps deliver drive to both front and rear differentials for confident traction over rough ground.
Adjustable Gear Ratios for Varied Terrain
With a wide range of gearing options from 11.09:1 up to 29.28:1, the chassis lets you tune acceleration and torque to suit rocks, roots, or smoother dirt tracks. These settings give practical flexibility when setting up for crawls or faster trail runs.
Smooth Articulation and Traction Control
The four-link rigid suspension with CVA oil dampers offers stable axle control and good articulation. Differential gears can be locked to increase traction on steep or slippery sections, helping keep wheels planted when it matters.
