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.

Tamiya originally released a special version of the R/C 4WD racing buggy Hotshot in 1986. This famous machine returns as the Super Hotshot, featuring modern improvements while keeping the basic layout of the original. Distinctive external features such as the stylish silver body and rear wing, yellow oil dampers, and spiked tires with gold metal-plated wheels have been retained.

The chassis maintains original features including the durable ABS monocoque frame, roll cage, and under guard. Full ball bearings minimize friction loss as power from the horizontally-mounted motor is transmitted to all four wheels via dog-bone type drive shafts. 4-wheel double wishbone suspension is equipped with oil dampers which allow 3 adjustable spring tensions to match track conditions. A GT-Tuned Motor (25T) provides plenty of power for dynamic off-road driving.

Note

This kit comes without an Electronic Speed Control.

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.
