Description

The Tamiya Racing Buggy Champ is a triumphant return of a true RC legend. This re-release of the 1979 buggy that established the electric RC buggy genre captures the spirit of the original while incorporating modern materials and manufacturing techniques. The Buggy Champ features a faithful reproduction of the original design, with improved  strength and durability to meet today's driving conditions.

The Buggy Champ's chassis is a testament to its classic heritage. The main frame, made of 2mm thick FRP plates and reinforced with duralumin panels, provides a balance of flexibility and strength for excellent driving stability. The 4-wheel independent suspension, with front double trailing and rear swing axles, is equipped with four oil dampers for smooth and responsive handling. The dust-proof transparent plastic radio box protects the RC mechanism and running battery, ensuring reliable performance on off-road adventures.   

The drivetrain is efficient and reliable, featuring a full ball bearing setup for minimal friction. The 3-piece centre lock wheels provide a secure grip on the tyres, with a rib pattern on the front for directional stability and a block pattern on the rear for excellent traction. Whether you're a seasoned racer who remembers the magic of the original Buggy Champ or a newcomer eager to experience a classic design, the Tamiya Racing Buggy Champ is a must-have.
