DESCRIPTION
This RC product is a great option for RC beginners! The kit pairs the First Try kit version of the TT-02B off-road chassis, with a flashy painted Plasma Edge II body from item 47454. Hobbyists can still enjoy the informative and rewarding process of building a Tamiya chassis, but with some of the trickier sections pre-assembled.

The TT-02B is a highly adaptable and beginner-friendly chassis itself, with 4-wheel double wishbone suspension and shaft-driven 4WD giving great performance on, and off-road.

Shaft-Driven 4WD TT-02B
The shaft-driven 4WD TT-02B buggy chassis uses a skid-shaped frame. Its suspension setup uses 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension with long arms, plus CVA shock units, giving the car assured handling, while left and right suspension arms and uprights are identical to facilitate hassle-free assembly. Front and rear gearboxes include 4-bevel differentials for smooth operation, and are sealed to ensure that dust can't get inside. The top can be removed simply by loosening four screws, making maintenance a breeze. Four different gear ratios can be applied with the use of three separately-sold types of pinion gears, allowing you to match the characteristics of your car setup to the conditions at any given time. Of course, this off-road chassis also includes receiver case and motor cover to protect them from dirt and debris thrown up off of the track.

- Attach pre-assembled sections, then, assemble other areas to complete the chassis!
- The TT-02B gives efficient shaft-driven 4WD and great performance on a range of surfaces.
- Long suspension arms and CVA oil dampers provide a smooth ride, with square spike tires providing great grip.
- The polycarbonate Plasma-Edge II buggy body is included. It comes pre-cut and painted in our special iridescent purple/green (Tamiya PS-46). Stickers are supplied for decoration, and require application.
