DAS87A01 Land Rover Defender 4WD 1/87 Kit

Description

This is about as Tiny as 4×4 gets! The DAS87A01 Land Rover Defender is a beautifully engineered 1/87 scale masterpiece. Not only is the DAS87 range ideal for bringing interest to your H0 scale railway layout, they’re also great for table-top off-roading!

Lift the lid on the presentation tin and discover the cast brass chassis, axle housings and wheels. Rubber tires, brass gears and a resin printed Land Rover Defender D110 body complete the package. Oh, we forgot to mention the brass-etched detail parts!

Decide whether you want to install twin motors for power and speed, or a single motor with additional gear reduction to make an all-out nano crawler. All the necessary parts for both options are included. As is common at this scale, the suspension is simple, but effective. No shocks or links, the front and rear axles simply rotate around the center driveshaft to provide wheel travel.

We offer the DAS87A01 Land Rover Defender as a kit, allowing you to complete a roller to which you add your preferred electronic speed controller, servo, 1S LiPo battery and radio gear. Follow the links below for our recommendations.

Please note: This kit does not come with an instruction manual. It contains seriously small parts and is aimed at the more experienced and confident 1/87 enthusiast. If you haven’t worked with this tiny scale before, we recommend the simpler DAS87A02 kit as a more manageable place to start.
