The addition of newly designed front and rear differential units using crown and pinion gears produces high efficiency drive performance with similar low levels of resistance to the existing 2WD version. Also, the addition of the AWD drive train hardly increases the weight of the chassis at all, enabling the benefits of AWD to be realized without any downside. The final result is a powerful chassis with awesome handling.

Available : Nov 1, 2008

Translation :

It is funny, the RC buggy!
It is the assembly kit of the electromotive radio control 2WD buggy which it is easy to handle with simple structure, the light running with ease can enjoy. The reality which uses the precise die which is similar to the scale model as for the co-cured body which overflows the ABS resin make whose strength is high. Also the driver doll being reproduced, mood is raised. Be able to paint both with the paint for the plastic model, also the fact that it finishes in the original color is the pleasure. As for the off load the rising fighter of the 2WD buggy which can be played of course fully even with on load, the RC car will be begun from these 1 units.
