Back to basics with the Tamiya 57749 XB Lunch Box

The Tamiya 57749 XB Lunch Box channels classic radio-controlled style into a ready-to-run package you can drive straight away. Pre-assembled and trimmed, the model removes build time so you can focus on running and fine tuning. The yellow van body with vivid graphics and metal trim keeps the van noticeable during club meets or casual runs.

Robust frame and simple suspension

Under the lively bodywork the Lunch Box uses a strong box frame chassis designed to absorb rough use. Its rear-wheel-drive system is paired with an independent front swing axle and rear coil spring suspension to manage uneven surfaces. The 115mm monster tyres soak up impacts and improve traction, and the enclosed gearbox and differential protect key components from dirt.

Easy stunts and dependable drivetrain

The Lunch Box is famous for wheelies, and the included wheelie bar helps control those moves. Power comes from a Type 540 motor and the TEU-101 electronic speed controller, offering dependable throttle control for both newcomers and experienced drivers.
