Tamiya 1/10 Fire Dragon 4×4 Buggy Kit

Tamiya 47457 – 1/10 Fire Dragon 4×4 Buggy Kit

The Fire Dragon was the machine used by the main character of the manga series “Radicon Boy” and was first released as an R/C model back in 1989. Featuring a unique body styling and parts for a driver figure, this colorful buggy is a great way for beginners to get started with this hobby and for veterans of R/C to remind themselves of their childhood years. This updated re-release edition incorporates some updated parts to improve durability.

User-Friendly 4WD Drivetrain

Durable chassis features motor mounted amidships, which powers all four wheels via a shaft drive system. The simple, yet effective, suspension is made up of upper I-arms and lower H-arms for an efficient double wishbone setup. CVA oil dampers at all four corners help absorb shocks from rough terrain while differential gears in the front and rear gearboxes help put the power to the ground smoothly.
