Introducing the Star Unit Dual Rider 57407

The Tamiya 57407 Star Unit Dual Rider T3-01 presents a three-wheel leaning concept in 1/8 scale, emulating motorcycle cornering behaviour while delivering tidy model proportions. It is aimed at hobbyists who want an on-road model with distinctive movement and strong visual appeal.

Understanding the T3-01 Chassis

The T3-01 chassis is built to let the model lean into bends, producing more natural turn dynamics and a convincing riding sensation. The design emphasises balance and manageable handling so that both hobby newcomers and experienced modellers can enjoy controlled driving.

Scale Rider and Finish Options

The kit comes with a well-detailed rider figure that boosts realism and gives a focus for painting and weathering. Careful finishing of both rider and body panels results in a professional-looking display model.

Ideal Conditions for Running

Best suited to firm, smooth surfaces, the Tamiya 57407 feels most at home on sealed roads, runways or dedicated on-road tracks where steering feedback and lean are readily felt.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/8
  • Chassis Type: T3-01

The Tamiya 57407 Star Unit Dual Rider T3-01 suits modellers after a unique on-road project; its leaning chassis and figure detail combine to give both enjoyable running and display potential.

Great to do business with, good communication, items well packaged and delivery times are pretty good. Highly recommended. A+++
Clean mould lines and use a primer suitable for the figure material before applying acrylic or enamel paints; small brushes and masking help achieve crisp helmet and suit details.
On short, smooth circuits the leaning action gives distinctive cornering behaviour; tune steering and throttle response to suit tight layouts and keep runs controlled.
Finish seams, decals and small details first, then protect painted surfaces with a clear coat. Mount the model on a simple base or stand to show the rider and body lines to best effect.
Yes, the unusual three-wheel leaning layout and detailed rider often attract interest and make it a talking point among fellow modellers and on-road enthusiasts.
