Overview

Please Note:

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

The Tamiya Fighter Buggy NXGEN (DT-04) is a 1/10 scale R/C model assembly kit inspired by full-size single-seater racing buggies. This exciting new buggy features the DT-04 chassis, a 2WD rear-wheel-drive platform designed for lively performance and ease of assembly. The "NXGEN" (Next Generation) name reflects the improved off-road performance and wealth of setup options this chassis offers.

The Fighter Buggy NXGEN boasts a distinctive body with multiple body panels connected to pipe frames, a design inspired by full-size racing buggies. The lightweight and durable bathtub frame chassis features an inline battery pack position and a rear-mounted motor for optimal traction. The sealed gearbox with a built-in gear differential ensures smooth cornering and protects the internals from dust and dirt.

The 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension with long arms and CVA oil dampers provides exceptional handling and control over rough terrain. With its combination of unique design, versatile features, and compatibility with DT-02 and DT-03 option parts, the Tamiya Fighter Buggy NXGEN (DT-04) is the perfect choice for off-road enthusiasts of all levels.
