Tamiya Super Hotshot (2012)

4WD Off-Road RC model kit in 1:10 scale. A reissue of the classic buggy from 1986 with modern improvements. Independent wheel suspension with oil-filled shock absorbers. Fully ball-bearing equipped. Silver-painted Lexan body. Gold-coated rims with pin spike tires. Includes a 540 GT-Tuned brushed motor. Buggies typically feature tires with a pronounced off-road profile and a well-tuned chassis, making them ideal models for tough off-road use. The gearboxes are often enclosed, protecting them from dirt ingress. Additionally, the shock absorbers usually operate hydraulically and can be tuned with different oils. A brushed motor is particularly appealing due to its simple design and resulting ease of maintenance. Furthermore, the brushed motor is significantly cheaper to purchase compared to a brushless motor. Kits consist of model components that need to be assembled and may require additional parts. This allows for various configuration options but also requires some prior knowledge in model building. Difficulty level: Beginner. No special prior knowledge in model building is required for this product. The necessary materials for completion and operation are usually fully included in the delivery.
