The Tamiya Trail Beetle is a 1/14 scale RC rock crawler that's ready to tackle any off-road challenge. This unique and stylish model features a racy body inspired by customised Volkswagen Beetles, with exaggerated fenders, a simplified rear end, triple auxiliary lights, and metal-plated details for added realism. The Trail Beetle is built on the capable GF-01TR chassis, a gear-driven 4WD platform designed for exceptional off-road performance.
The GF-01TR chassis boasts hub reduction gears on each axle, providing immense traction, high ground clearance, and the ability to tackle tough terrain. The sealed gearbox protects the internals from dust and debris, while the built-in differential gears, filled with included diff putty, ensure smooth cornering and superior traction. The 4-wheel double wishbone suspension and friction shocks provide a comfortable and controlled ride, and the 2-piece tie rod steering setup with the servo on the left offers responsive handling. The yellow rims are fitted with 115mm diameter hybrid pin spike/lug pattern tires for excellent grip and cushioning.
Whether you're a fan of classic off-roaders or simply appreciate a unique and capable RC truck, the Tamiya Trail Beetle is a fantastic choice.

The GF-01TR Monster Beetle Trail features a fun and comical design with its lifted stance and oversized tyres, while also delivering impressive off-road capabilities.
The Monster Beetle Trail's body is meticulously crafted from ABS resin, capturing the iconic shape and details of the original Monster Beetle. Plated parts, such as the auxiliary lamps, engine components, and muffler, enhance the realism and add a touch of style.
The Monster Beetle Trail utilises a gear differential with high-traction gum, providing excellent grip and control on challenging terrain.
Hub reduction units on all four wheels reduce driveshaft rotation and increase torque, enhancing the Monster Beetle Trail's climbing and crawling abilities.
The lowered wheel axle position increases the minimum ground clearance, allowing the Monster Beetle Trail to navigate rough terrain with ease.
The battery is positioned vertically at the rear of the slim monocoque chassis, optimising weight distribution and maximising space for the electronics.
