Scale Icon: Tamiya Land Rover Defender 90 47478-60A

The Defender shape is a staple for scale collectors and trail drivers. Tamiya's limited 47478-60A release presents the classic profile in a light blue pre-painted finish mounted on the proven CC-02 chassis, appealing to those who value authenticity and capable mechanics.

Proven CC-02 Layout for Practical Off-Roading

The CC-02 ladder frame houses a longitudinal motor positioned behind the front axle and links to a separate gearbox and transfer case. Propeller shafts feed the front and rear diffs while the four-link rigid suspension and CVA oil dampers deliver stable axle movement for scale-accurate articulation.

Performance Tweaks and Hop-Up Choices

This chassis supports a broad range of Hop-Up Options, allowing you to alter gear ratios, improve damping or fit stronger steering components. These changes let you dial in the truck for slow rock crawling or a more brisk pace on rough lanes.

Authentic Finishing and Component Quality

The pre-painted polycarbonate body captures Defender detail with separate moulded grille, mirrors and light housings for realism. Black ABS resin wheels combined with semi-pneumatic all-terrain tyres balance scale looks with practical traction on mixed surfaces.

Tamiya Land Rover Defender 90 47478-60A makes a fine addition for scale collectors and trail enthusiasts, combining a faithful body shell with a flexible CC-02 chassis ready for upgrades.

The pre-painted shell and separately moulded trim parts give a convincing scale appearance suitable for cabinet display, dioramas and scale meet events when combined with careful detailing.
Verify all screws are tight, ensure the ESC and battery are correctly installed and secure, and perform a free-rotation check on the drivetrain to confirm no binding before heading out.
Yes, many scale accessories such as roof racks, light bars and interior detail parts are compatible with the Defender body to enhance realism. Check fitment to avoid trimming or modification.
Inspect dampers and links after several runs or if performance drops. Replace or top up damper oil and check for worn links or bushings to maintain consistent handling and minimise wear.
