Nimble driving and edgy style are back!

RC manga ``Radio Control Boy'' serialized in Shogakukan's ``CoroCoro Comic'' that started in 1983. This is a reprint version of the electric radio control car assembly kit of "Thunder Dragon", which was the main character machine. The bathtub frame is made of ABS resin and has high strength, making it easy to inspect and maintain. The double wishbone 4-wheel independent suspension is equipped with CVA oil dampers. Furthermore, a stabilizer is set at the front, and the supple suspension makes effective use of the 4WD power. The front and rear sealed gearboxes incorporate a compact and highly durable die-cast 3-bevel gear unit type differential gear. Produces smooth operation and straightforward manoeuvrability. It is also equipped with hollow rubber spiked tires that provide sufficient grip. The sharp, edgy body is made of polycarbonate. The canopy part is painted clear, and the main body is painted silver and has been cut.

Shaft drive 4WD chassis that is easy to assemble and maintain

The chassis is a shaft drive 4WD that mounts the motor mid-ship and uses a shaft for power transmission. The RC mechanism is built into the lightweight and strong bathtub frame, and the front and rear gearboxes attached to the suspension are docked for ease of maintenance. The suspension has a simple configuration of upper I-arm and lower H-arm, but it has 4 independent double wishbone wheels with excellent ground contact. In addition to four CVA oil dampers, a stabilizer is installed on the front to achieve supple driving. In addition, a unit type differential gear is built into the front and rear sealed gear cases. Another key point is that it uses an aluminium motor mount that has high precision, rigidity, and excellent heat dissipation. Furthermore, the gear case has been made compact to ensure road clearance. Combined with 4WD, it provides excellent drivability on rough roads.
