Tamiya Avante Vanquish VQS RC Buggy Electric 4WD 1/10 Scale Kit

The Tamiya Avante Vanquish VQS is a meticulously engineered 4WD buggy that revives the spirit of the legendary 1988 Avante. This updated re-release boasts a lightweight and durable ABS plastic monocoque chassis that provides exceptional rigidity and protection for vital electronics. The shaft-driven 4WD system, combined with triple differentials (front and rear planetary gear differentials and a centre ball differential), ensures smooth and responsive handling on any terrain.

The Avante Vanquish VQS features a 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension with adjustable camber, allowing for precise tuning to suit individual driving preferences and track conditions. The front suspension utilises aluminium uprights for added strength and precision, while universal driveshafts front and rear ensure efficient power transfer and minimal worry about parts coming loose during rigorous off-road driving. The lightweight polycarbonate body is pre-painted in black and comes pre-cut with body mount holes for easy assembly.
