Overview

Painting Required

This body shell comes completely UNPAINTED. 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 shells surface. To view the entire range of polycarbonate safe paints CLICK HERE?

Tamiya's designers have crafted the TD-4 Super Avante, a fun-to-drive 4WD off-road buggy. The body is a re-imagined Avante, designed by Kota Nezu, and even shares the fun rear wing moniker "Being Nuts is Neat!" The front of the all-new TD-4 chassis shares a front horizontal damper layout design similar to the original Avante, with the front dampers positioned underneath the body.

The TD-4 is a shaft-driven 4WD buggy chassis which employs front inboard suspension for a slim, low-profile form. It features a longitudinal battery pack position in the center and a midship transverse motor for optimum balance and improved performance. The drivetrain uses full bearings, and sealed front/rear gearboxes have built-in ball differentials. Two link rods and a crank arm transmit movement of the left-side servo to the three-piece steering arm setup. Four-wheel independent double wishbone suspension utilises CVA oil dampers. Turnbuckle shaft upper arms facilitate camber angle adjustment. Two types (high/low) of wing stays are included and star dish wheels are paired with square spike tires which offer superlative grip off-road.

Note

This body shell comes completely unpainted. Only use polycarbonate-safe paints such as the Tamiya PS series. Standard paints will not adhere and/or may cause damage to the body shell surface.

Protective Fenders & High-Grip Tyres

Protective Fenders & High-Grip Tyres

The TD-4 Avante is equipped with small polycarbonate fenders on the front and rear to protect the chassis from flying debris. High-grip square spike tyres, mounted on vibrant yellow wheels, provide excellent traction and a distinctive look.

Adjustable Aerodynamic Buttresses

Adjustable Aerodynamic Buttresses

Enhance aerodynamic performance with the distinctive buttresses, inspired by real-world supercars. These polycarbonate components are separate parts, allowing for customisation and fine-tuning. Choose between high and low wing stays to adjust downforce and optimise handling on different surfaces. (The photo shows the low downforce specification.)

Advanced Double Wishbone Front Suspension

Advanced Double Wishbone Front Suspension

The TD-4 Avante features a sophisticated double wishbone front suspension system with upper I-arm and lower H-arm configuration. This design allows for precise tuning, with a turnbuckle on the upper arm enabling camber angle adjustments. The inboard-mounted CVA oil-filled shocks, tilted at approximately 10 degrees, are actuated by a push rod and rocker arm, providing responsive and controlled damping for optimal handling.

Easy Access & Aerodynamic Body

Easy Access & Aerodynamic Body
