Description
Painting Required

This body shell comes completely UNPAINTED and may require body post holes to be drilled. Only use a polycarbonate style paint such as The Tamiya PS series to finish these bodies, as standard paints will not adhere and/or cause damage to the body shell's surface. If you require paint, we recommend the polycarbonate safe paints.

Relive the golden age of RC with the return of the iconic Tamiya Frog. This 1/10 scale electric 2WD buggy, first introduced in 1983, is back and blends its classic design with modern touches. The Frog retains its signature ABS space frame and eye-catching polycarbonate body. This version includes diaphragm-type oil-filled shocks and durable dog-bone driveshafts for smoother, more efficient power transmission. The 4-wheel independent suspension, featuring front double-wishbones and rear trailing arms with horizontally mounted oil shocks, delivers fantastic off-road handling. With its 3-piece rims, grooved front tyres, and spike rear tyres, the Frog is ready to conquer any terrain, just like it did in the 80s.

This "Essentials Builder Bundle" is the perfect way to start your build, as it includes all the core electronics. We've packed in a FlySky 2-channel radio system, a strong Power HD 13kg waterproof servo, and a reliable waterproof brushed ESC. For power, you get a Tornado 3600mAh NiMH battery and a G.T. Power charger. We even include the 8 AA batteries for the transmitter! The kit comes with a clear, unpainted polycarbonate body, so you can have the fun of painting it in the classic box-art style or creating your own unique design. Just grab your tools, some paint, and get building!

Improved Front End Rigidity

The double wishbone front suspension provides a strong and reliable ride. It is designed with steel rod radius arms to increase stiffness, and the springs are integrated into the bulkhead for a compact and durable setup.

Layover Suspension

The Tamiya Frog's trailing arm rear suspension, equipped with a smooth aluminium oil damper, ensures stable and predictable handling.  Its strategically positioned battery keeps the centre of gravity low for enhanced cornering and confident jumps.

Selectable Gear Ratios

The sealed gear case protects the differential gear and allows you to choose from three selectable gear ratios. Power is sent to the wheels via a durable dogbone-type drive shaft that is protected by joint boots.

ABS Chassis

Just like the original, the Tamiya Frog features a tough, lightweight ABS resin space frame, letting it fly over jumps and tear across challenging terrain with legendary durability.
