Tamiya 1/10 Scale Blitzer Beetle 2011 Radio Controlled Model Kit

This is a 1/10 scale R/C assembly kit of the Blitzer Beetle, which was inspired by the exciting off-road desert racer designs seen in the United States. The proven chassis is equipped with 4-wheel double wishbone suspension, CVA shock units, and high-grip off-road tyres to offer superb driving performance on rough terrain. The injection moulded body features metal-plated light covers and side mirror parts for greater realism. In addition, a driver figure as well as a sticker sheet to depict the fiery splash-pattern livery are also included.

2WD Off-Road Chassis
This tough, lightweight ABS bathtub chassis features a rear-mounted motor, rear-wheel drive layout. The fully enclosed gearbox protects against dirt and debris and is equipped with differential gears to offer smooth cornering. Four-wheel independent double wishbone suspension is equipped with C.V.A. shock units and extremely durable monocoque-type lower arms. The front spiked tyres feature three ribs for enhanced stability, while the rear tyres feature both spikes and an X-shaped tread pattern along the centre to ensure high levels of grip.
