Scale Accuracy of the Tamiya Porsche 911 Carrera RSR 2.8

The Tamiya Porsche 911 Carrera RSR 2.8 reproduces the race car look with a pre-painted polycarbonate shell that reduces prep and presents well on the shelf or at an event. The model balances collectible presentation with practical running potential.

Understanding the BT-01 Chassis Setup

The BT-01 chassis features a short 251mm wheelbase and a midship rear motor to emulate the original Porsche's dynamics, giving the model crisp rear-drive handling and authentic on-track behaviour.

Performance-Focused Styling

With silver wheels and slick racing tyres fitted, the car looks the part and delivers predictable grip on smooth surfaces. The included 540 brushed motor and ESC mean you need only add a 2-channel radio, steering servo and a 7.2-7.4V battery and charger to run.

Fine Detail and User-Friendly Build

Smoked windows, separate mirror mouldings and pre-cut wheel arches enhance scale realism while easing assembly. Those details help new builders stay on track while giving experienced hobbyists scope for set-up tweaks.

The Tamiya Porsche 911 Carrera RSR 2.8 offers a convincing blend of authentic styling and a ready-to-run chassis layout, ideal for collectors who also want to drive their models.

No, the body comes pre-painted. Many owners still add small touch-ups or decals to personalise their car, but the finish is display-ready out of the box.
A basic 2-channel transmitter and receiver will control throttle and steering. Choose a compact steering servo with suitable torque for precise control of the BT-01 chassis.
The polycarbonate body is resilient, but repeated impacts can chip paint or deform panels. Treat it like any scale shell and inspect mounts regularly to avoid damage.
Spare chassis components, bodies and trim pieces are usually available through Tamiya dealers and specialist hobby stores, so repairs are straightforward if needed.
