The Innovative Wing Car
This is a ready to assemble electric powered R/C model of the Lotus Type79 "wing car," which recorded a pole-to-finish win on debut at the 1978 Belgian GP as well as help Lotus claim both drivers' and constructors' titles. The polycarbonate body recreates the "Black Beauty's" graceful form and a sticker sheet depicts its classic pinstripe livery. Set includes separately-molded parts that depict the side pontoon front tips parts, front and rear wing panels, and driver. The Black Beauty comes loaded on the direct drive 2WD F104W chassis.
【 F104W Chassis 】
F104W chassis features a double-deck frame equipped with 2.0mm upper and 3.2mm lower FRP decks and has the battery placed in a longitudinal position to allow for a slim body design. F103 front suspension arms are incorporated to accurately replicate the wide dimensions of this classic 1970s race car. Front suspension features an independent kingpin/coil spring while rear features a proven 3-point suspension with the combination of friction plates and a coil spring. The highly efficient direct drive 2WD features the motor pinion directly connected to the spur gear which has a built-in ball differential. Realistic semi-pneumatic rubber tires are equipped with inner sponges.
