Description
Experience the nostalgia of classic off-road racing with this re-release of Tamiya's Blitzer Beetle. This 1/10 scale R/C assembly kit is inspired by the exciting off-road desert racers from the United States. The Blitzer Beetle comes with a durable ABS body, injection-molded and detailed with metal-plated light covers and side mirrors for added realism. The kit also includes a driver figure and a sticker sheet to recreate the iconic fiery splash-pattern livery.
2WD Off-Road Chassis The tough, lightweight ABS bathtub chassis is equipped with a rear-mounted motor and rear-wheel drive. The fully enclosed gearbox protects against dirt and debris and features differential gears for smooth cornering. The independent double wishbone suspension on all four wheels is equipped with C.V.A. shock units and extremely durable monocoque-type lower arms. The front tires feature three ribs for enhanced stability, while the rear tires feature both spikes and an X-shaped tread pattern along the center to ensure high levels of grip.
