Product Description
【 A new evolution of the 2WD buggy focused on enjoying the drive 】 This assembly kit of the electric radio-controlled car inherits the name of the mid-class rear-wheel drive buggy, Astute, introduced in 1989. The low-profile body with smooth outlines was crafted by Takahiro Nezu of znug design. The cockpit is equipped with a driver figurine, and the front and rear feature small fenders. Additionally, the rear wing stay is provided in two types, high and low, allowing for downforce adjustments. The chassis employs a monocoque frame with a midship motor mount, keeping the weighty running battery horizontally mounted at the rear to ensure traction on the rear tires. The front is outfitted with rib-pattern tires and the rear with square spike tires, pursuing the joy of lightweight movement and aiming for a controllable handling in this evolved 2WD buggy.
