The Kyosho Baja Beetle 2014 is a triumphant return of a true RC legend. This reimagined icon captures the spirit of the original Baja Beetle, a buggy that, along with the Scorpion, helped define electric buggy racing in the 1980s, while incorporating modern technology and performance enhancements for today's enthusiasts. The Baja Beetle 2014 retains the classic Buggy 2014 chassis layout, but with upgraded materials and components throughout.
The Baja Beetle 2014 features a durable and lightweight 6061T6 forged aluminium chassis, providing exceptional strength and rigidity. The two-piece die-cast aluminium gearbox with differential gears and an included slipper clutch delivers smooth and reliable power transfer, while precision 48-pitch gears ensure precise control and responsiveness. The flat under-surface of the countersunk chassis minimises contact resistance and scraping, enhancing durability for off-road adventures. Stainless steel shafts and aluminium cylinders in the oil shocks provide a smooth and consistent damping action, delivering a true racing buggy experience.
Like the original Beetle, the 2014 version is packaged as an unassembled kit, but with the added convenience of lightweight and secure hex screws. Whether you're a seasoned racer who remembers the magic of the original Baja Beetle or a newcomer eager to experience a classic design with modern performance, the Kyosho Baja Beetle 2014 is a must-have.
The Beetle's timeless design is back, featuring a sleek and stylish classoc beetle body that's sure to turn heads on the track and on the jumps.
Experience the benefits of a lightweight and durable chassis. The aluminium construction, including the main frame, shock stays, and subframe plate, ensures a rigid platform for optimal handling, while the countersunk underside enhances the car's aesthetics.
The Kyosho 2WD buggy range suspension arms are crafted from high-quality 6061-T6 forged aluminium, providing the ultimate combination of precision, rigidity, durability, and lightness. The wide front tread improves stability and control, allowing you to push the limits with confidence.
The Scorpion's two-piece die-cast aluminium gearbox houses durable diff gears and an adjustable slipper clutch for smooth and efficient power transfer. Fine-tune the slipper clutch to optimise performance on different surfaces.
Kyosho 2WD buggy range drivetrain features high-efficiency 48-pitch gears made from a combination of sintered alloy and nylon. Two gears are included for high-speed and low-speed settings, while an optional ball differential is available for further customisation.
The oil shocks, with their aluminium cylinders and stainless steel shafts, deliver smooth and effective damping. The signature colour caps pay homage to the original, adding a touch of nostalgia.
