This R/C assembly kit recreates the 4WD buggy Saint Dragon which was the main model of a popular 1980s Japanese comic. The chassis consists of a tough bathtub frame plus front and rear gearboxes with suspension attached. 4-wheel double wishbone suspension uses CVA oil dampers for a superior ride, and a front stabilizer for a firm setup. The stylish body is molded in polycarbonate and pre-painted white, just requiring application of stickers to finish it.


Efficient Shaft-Driven 4WD
The chassis features a shaft-driven 4WD drivetrain married to a lightweight and tough bathtub frame that employs front and rear gearboxes with the suspension attached to them; that suspension utilizes upper "I" and lower "H" arms, and offers a ground-hugging drive. CVA oil dampers and a front stabilizer contribute further to an excellent drive. Both gearboxes house a gear differential, and are compact to ensure plentiful ground clearance. The kit also features an aluminum motor mount for superior heat dissipation.

Features:

• The flowing, dynamic body lines are a real treat; it is pre-painted in white, and pre-cut, just requiring application of stickers.
• A durable, easy-maintenance layout employs a bathtub frame with front and rear gearboxes screw-attached to it.
• Double-wishbone suspension features upper "I" and lower "H" arms, and employs a front stabilizer to minimize roll when cornering.
• CVA oil dampers give exemplary shock absorption that translates into a highly controllable drive.
• An aluminium motor mount not only boosts the model's rigidity, it also helps with motor heat dissipation.
• This image is a close up on the CVA oil damper-fitted rear double wishbone suspension.
• Dish wheels attract less mud when driving; they are paired with grippy spike tires.
• The polycarbonate chassis cover includes a depiction of driver arms. The helmet is a separate part.

Thunder & Flame
This assembly kit creates an updated re-release version of the classic R/C off-road buggy Thunder Dragon, which appeared in a Japanese cartoon in the 1980s. Its ABS bathtub frame is tough and allows easy maintenance, while 4-wheel double wishbone suspension uses CVA oil dampers and a front stabilizer for a superior ride.
Sealed gearboxes front and rear contain differentials with die-cast 3-bevel types for smooth, superior handling feel, and semi-pneumatic spike tires give great grip. The streamlined body is molded in polycarbonate, with non-canopy sections painted in silver. It is pre-cut for convenience.

Tough Shaft-Driven 4WD
The midship motor, shaft-driven 4WD chassis is based around a lightweight and tough monocoque, with 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension attached to gearboxes: an easy maintenance layout using upper "I" and lower "H" arms. Dual CVA oil dampers at the rear and a single one in the front monoshock setup are joined by a front stabilizer for optimal flex.
Gear differential units front and rear are in sealed gearboxes, and an aluminium motor mount further improves reliability.

Features:

• Front double wishbone suspension utilizes upper "I" arms and lower "H" arms for a ground hugging drive.
• A front monoshock setup employs a CVA oil damper and helps limit roll when your buggy is cornering.
• A close-up on the aluminum motor mount, which facilitates rigidity and superior heat dissipation.
• The double wishbone suspension setup at the rear employs dual CVA oil dampers for a smooth ride.
• Dish design wheels help mud and dirt to slide right off, and are paired with grippy spike tires.
• A polycarbonate chassis cover provides protection from dirt, and features a driver figure for realism.
