kiasukid 52 Posted January 29, 2014 The steering servo placement on the Willy Land Cruiser looks rather awkward. Is it a dual motor 4WD? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr crispy 2293 Posted January 29, 2014 I'm liking that Comical Landcruiser. Looks to me like a single motor mounted opposite the servo, you can just make out the power cables below. Looks like it's got a new 4x4 wheelie chassis too! I think there will be a few more 4x4 Wild Willys about this year 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TWINSET 1793 Posted January 29, 2014 Looks like a similar layout to the Mini 4WD chassis - motor in the middle and the rest of the chassis is a gearbox housing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JennyMo, have you been designing for Tamiya on the side ? This is going to be popular me thinks. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fruitfly01 596 Posted January 29, 2014 TamiyaBlog has a few photos of the show. The GF01 is a strange beast on the inside. And it appears the Alpine rally body is getting a reissue, although I don't know what chassis it's on yet. Thanks to JWeston for the heads up on Facebook.

JennyMo 3526 Posted January 29, 2014 Separated at birth? That is kinda spooky! I like the idea of a 4WD chassis this size... not sure on those wheels though as others have said... but the new little Landcruiser rocks! Jx 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr crispy 2293 Posted January 29, 2014 Although I welcome a new 4x4 fun sized chassis I think Tamiya have missed a trick here. It looks a little over engineered and I'm not keen on the steering servo placement, it'll limit other body fitting options. I wonder what steering mechanism they're using and how much slack it'll have? They could've gotten a similar short 4x4 by simply producing an official shortened TL01 chassis. It would only need 2 new plastic moulds of the chassis halfs and a shorter propshaft. In fact if they made its design similar to the M03/05 series with a front and rear section bolted together, they could've included a spacer section to allow the one chassis to fit multiple wheelbase lengths. Bolt multiple spacers together for longer chassis or a larger spacer that incorporates the battery cross wise like a M or TL chassis. Everything else would be sourced from TL, M or WW2 etc. The new chassis halfs could also address the lack of gearing options that the TL has or at least offer lower tooth pinion options . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mheald 351 Posted January 29, 2014 ****! I just bought my son his second WR-02 car only this time with a faster motor, and as I was building it I was thinking 'my boy needs to move up to 4WD for all our quarry trips' lol. And low and behold, this arises. Looks like his 3rd car is now found Although I foresee two being bought as man, these cars are SOOOO much fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kenny G 258 Posted January 29, 2014 When I read Toyota Land Cruiser 40 Pickup i instantly thought the GF-01 would be a new scale chassis. That being said, that thing looks awesome! Iv'e been waiting for a TLT-1 sized 4wd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
