Overview

This is a 1/10 scale R/C assembly kit of the Blitzer Beetle, which was inspired by the exciting off-road desert racer designs seen in the United States. The proven chassis is equipped with 4-wheel double wishbone suspension, CVA shock units, and high-grip off-road tires to offer superb driving performance on rough terrain.

Note

This body shell comes completely unpainted and may or may not 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.

  • Injection-molded body with metal-plated light covers and side mirror parts for greater realism
  • Driver figure and sticker sheet with fiery splash-pattern livery included
  • Tough, lightweight ABS bathtub chassis with rear-mounted motor and rear-wheel drive layout
