TAMIYA RC 1/10 HORNET EVO

TAMIYA RC 1/10 Hornet EVO 40th Anniversary 2WD Off-Road Buggy Kit

Celebrate four decades of iconic Tamiya off-road R/C action with the Tamiya RC 1/10 Hornet EVO. This updated version of the legendary 1984 Hornet retains its unmistakable bathtub frame while adding modern performance features including fully independent double wishbone suspension, CVA oil dampers, a sealed rear gearbox and a 3-bevel differential for smooth cornering.

Please note this is an unassembled kit requiring assembly; it ships as a build-it-yourself kit and does not arrive pre-built or ready to run.

The Hornet EVO combines a lightweight polycarbonate body with full ball bearings, dog bone drive shafts and high-grip rear spike tyres. A 540-brushed motor and HobbyWing THW 1060 Brushed Motor ESC are included, while the updated 40th-anniversary sticker design and included driver figure give this classic buggy a distinctive modern finish.
