Overview

Please Note:

This kit comes without an ESC, Servo, Battery, Charger, or Transmitter and will come with an unpainted body that may require cutting, painting and drilling.

The Boomerang, originally released in 1986, is now available as a 1/10 scale re-release assembly RC kit. It features a wedge-shape form, large-sized rear wing, and ball bearings installed in the gearboxes. The newly designed polycarbonate chassis cover ensures easy maintenance and prevents dirt and debris from entering.

The Boomerang inherits the chassis and shaft-driven 4WD powertrain of the famous Hotshot. The 3-piece bathtub chassis, consisting of a centre frame with front and rear gearboxes, ensures easy maintenance. It has a mono-shock oil shock and a stabiliser in the front, and CVA long oil shocks in the rear. A newly included polycarbonate chassis cover protects the chassis from dirt and debris. It can be upgraded with option parts such as the DF-02 Assembly Universal Shaft (Item 53791) and the DF-03 Aluminium Shock Set (Item 53926).

Note

This kit does not include an Electronic Speed Controller. 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; standard paints will not adhere and/or may cause damage to the body shell's surface.
