Brand Introduction
Tamiya is a renowned Japanese model manufacturer, known for producing high-quality radio-controlled vehicles and various models. Their products are loved by many users for their precision and high performance.
Product Description
Reviving the 2WD pure racing buggy from the 1990s, the Super Astute was released in 1991. This assembly kit retains the basic structure while improving upon it. It features a 2.5mm thick FRP frame that allows for the direct mounting of RC mechanics and batteries for a low center of gravity. Equipped with CVA oil dampers, the model features a 4-wheel double wishbone suspension. The abundant use of metal in various parts minimizes play and provides linear operability.
Moreover, it integrates the TTC (Tamiya Traction Control) mechanism, safeguarding gears from shocks during landings and crashes, while stabilizing the vehicle on slippery surfaces and effectively utilizing drive power. High-grip tire combinations include front rib spikes and rear square spikes for traction.
Usage Instructions
After assembly, a brushless motor and ESC can be purchased separately for use. Settings can be made while the vehicle is in its state.
