The Tamiya Hotshot is back in 1:10 scale, blending classic R/C design with modern upgrades. Originally released in 1985, it stood out with a bold look, shaft-driven 4WD, and a unique 3-piece monocoque chassis.
This re-release keeps the original's spirit intact while improving performance and ease of assembly. It features modern dog bone propeller shafts, diaphragm-type oil dampers, and an ESC that replaces the need for the original heat sink—though a dummy heat sink keeps the vintage look alive.
With double wishbone suspension, fully enclosed gearboxes, and a powerful RS540 motor, the Hotshot is built for performance on rough terrain. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to R/C buggies, this model offers a fun mix of nostalgia and current tech.
