The Tamiya Avante (2011) is a re-release of a true icon in the world of RC racing. Originally launched in 1988, the Avante captivated enthusiasts with its innovative design and high-performance features. Now, it's back to thrill a new generation of RC fans, featuring a faithful recreation of the original with modern upgrades for enhanced durability and capability.

The Avante boasts a unique shaft-driven 4WD system inherited from Tamiya's first 4WD R/C buggy, the Hotshot. The FRP double-deck chassis layout, longitudinal motor and battery positions, and formula-type body with chassis fairing create a distinctive and aerodynamic design. The Avante is equipped with a range of advanced features, including a compact gearbox with three small planetary gears, a centre differential for increased stability, a fully adjustable suspension, and cam-lock wheel caps.

This 2011 re-release includes updates such as universal drive-shafts and machined aluminium uprights, enhancing the car's durability and performance compared to the original. The Avante's innovative design and advanced features have influenced many modern RC cars, making it a true legend in the RC racing world. Whether you're a seasoned racer who remembers the thrill of the original Avante or a newcomer eager to experience a classic design with modern performance, the Tamiya Avante (2011) is a must-have.

Carbon Fibre Chassis

The car's chassis is engineered for both performance and durability, featuring a 2mm thick carbon double-deck that provides exceptional strength and rigidity.

Comp Spec Steering

Experience a smooth and accurate steering feel with the included racing steering set. The 2mm thick carbon plate construction ensures rigidity and responsiveness, enhancing overall handling.

Vertical Mount Battery Tray

The battery is mounted vertically on the right side of the vehicle, accommodating both 7.2V racing packs and LiPo batteries for flexible power options.

Cam-Lock Wheels

The car features cam-lock wheels that can be easily attached and detached without tools, simplifying maintenance and wheel swaps. The clamp-type pin hexagonal hubs provide a secure and reliable connection for worry-free performance.

Off-Road Ready

Experience an improved level of off-road capability with the high-clearance suspension design. This configuration allows the car to navigate challenging terrain and overcome obstacles with ease.

3-Piece Tie Rods

The high-strength 3-piece tie rod steering system, constructed with durable metal parts, delivers precise and reliable steering control. The included radius arm protector absorbs shocks and protects the steering components from damage.

Golden Aluminium Parts

The car features high-quality components that improve both performance, aesthetic and durability. The machined aluminium uprights and metal damper cylinders with end caps contribute to a robust and easily maintainable suspension system. In addition the Avante parts have been anodised in an eye catching gold.

GT Tuned Motor

The car's drivetrain is optimised for both power and control. The 25 turn gold label motor delivers ample torque, while the spur gear with a built-in ball-type centre differential ensures smooth and predictable power distribution.

Carbon Reinforced Shock Tower

The rear suspension is reinforced with a durable carbon fibre shock tower and aluminium mounting block. This robust design ensures that the rear suspension can handle the stresses of off-road driving.

Polycarbonate Under Cowl

The polycarbonate under-cowl enhances the car's skidding performance, allowing for smooth and controlled slides on a variety of surfaces.

Race Inspired Wing

The rear wing is designed for both style and function. The polycarbonate construction provides durability, while the adjustable angle allows you to customise the downforce and control the car's posture during jumps.
