Classic return of the Tamiya 57749 XB Lunch Box

The Tamiya 57749 XB Lunch Box is more than a model vehicle; it brings back the feel of old-school RC thrills. This ready-to-run (RTR) package arrives assembled so you can get driving fast without a full build. Its bright yellow van shell, bold decals and metal-plated trim make it a standout on the bench or out on loose dirt tracks.

Chassis built for rugged play

Beneath the eye-catching body the Lunch Box rides on a sturdy box frame chassis engineered for toughness. The rear-wheel-drive layout works with an independent front swing axle and rear coil springs to handle rough ground. Massive 115mm monster truck tyres give traction and cushion impacts, while the sealed gearbox and differential gears help protect internals from dust and grit.

Stunts, wheelies and controlled power

This Lunch Box is well known for popping wheelies, and the included wheelie bar makes those stunts easy to control. A Type 540 motor teamed with the TEU-101 electronic speed controller delivers dependable response, making the truck approachable for casual drivers and club riders alike.

As an RTR model it requires minimal setup: install the battery pack and transmitter batteries, then you are ready to run. Basic trim on the transmitter may be needed.
Use a 7.2V racing pack sized to fit the chassis battery tray. Choose a pack with good discharge rating for consistent power.
Yes, the large tyres and spring suspension handle grass and compact gravel well, though very loose sand will reduce traction and add wear.
