PDC Designworks continues its design collaboration with Tamiya with this new Mini 4WD car body mounted on the ME chassis.
Their latest creation is the TYXIV, a car designed above all to win races.
Low to the ground, aerodynamic and with a compact design, its switchable fender parts let you fit the TYXIV with both small- and large-diameter tires, while the tinted cockpit is inspired by autonomous vehicles of the coming AI age; those who prefer a more traditional style can remove it and run the TYXIV as an open-top car with space for a driver figure.
ME Chassis
The ME is the third double shaft motor chassis after the MS and MA, and its initials are derived from its "Midship Evolution" concept. Lightweight, flexible and easy to get started with, its outstanding combination of rigidity and flex ensures a fluid drive, while the ease of assembly is very much in the vein of the MA chassis. The chassis and its “A” parts are molded in lightweight, tough ABS resin, and low-friction plastic bearings ensure efficient drive. Its bumpers are separately molded, and the chassis has a speedy 3.5:1 gear ratio.
