Tamiya 49486 Nismo Coppermix Silvia TB-02 Street Drift Kit  [49486]

Balanced Drift Performance from the Tamiya 49486 Nismo Coppermix Silvia

The Tamiya 49486 - 1/10 RC Nismo Coppermix Silvia TB-02 Drift Spec Chassis blends factory-style bodywork with a chassis engineered for slide control. It offers a neat mix of visual accuracy and mechanical soundness for RC drift sessions.

Chassis Layout and Drive Characteristics

The TB-02 platform gives a rugged base with a shaft-driven 4WD arrangement that helps keep traction predictable through long drifts. The bathtub frame and longitudinal motor fit promote an even weight spread for steady cornering.

Shock Absorption and Steering Setup

C.V.A. Mini Shock dampers front and rear reduce unsettled movement over bumps, while turnbuckle shafts and 5mm ball connectors allow accurate steering and axle alignment tweaks to suit different track surfaces.

Body Detail and Drift Tyres

The Coppermix Silvia body is moulded in lightweight polycarbonate to preserve trim and detail without adding excess weight. A set of stickers recreates the livery, and the included black 5-spoke wheels with Super Driftech Tires give reliable slip and consistent grip during practice.

Fitting Electronics and Light Upgrades

Front and rear LEDs provide instant on-board lighting when the model is powered. For extra control over signals and special effects, fit the TLU-02 Light Control Unit (ITEM 53937). The kit comes with a Type 540 motor, but a 2-channel radio, ESC, servos and a 7.2V battery are required separately.

The Tamiya 49486 - 1/10 RC Nismo Coppermix Silvia TB-02 Drift Spec Chassis is well suited to drivers wanting a tidy, tuneable platform that looks authentic on the track. It works for regular practice and for developing drifting technique.
