A Long-awaited Aspiration

Buggy Champ, which was introduced in 1979 and established the electric RC buggy genre and gained worldwide popularity, is back. The basic configuration of the time, which boasted high driving performance and high quality, has been changed. In order to satisfy current driving conditions, such as increasing the strength of each part, the reprint version has been completely recreated by remaking many moulds. Of course, the clear parts mechanism that contains the RC mechanism and driving battery are also included. It is also equipped with a box. The front and rear tires have the same original tread pattern. Also, the body parts are white, so it is easy to finish it in the colour of your choice. I thought about the scene where you drive freely through a roadless wasteland. This is a revival of a machine that rekindles the passion of those days.

2WD chassis that faithfully reproduces the original

The main frame is composed of a 2mm thick FRP plate and reinforcing duralumin panels, and has both flexibility and strength for excellent running performance. Produces stability. Front and rear suspension arms are made of die-cast. 4-wheel independent suspension with front double trailing and rear swing axle is adopted, and equipped with 4 oil dampers with excellent shock absorption. RC mechanism. The highly dust-proof transparent plastic mechanical box that houses the vehicle and running battery ensures reliable off-road driving. The drive system is also equipped with full bearings. The wheels are three-piece wheels that firmly hold the tires. ･Centre lock type. The front wheel has a rib pattern with high directional stability, and the rear wheel has a block pattern tire with excellent grip. Promises dynamic off-road driving.
