This R/C assembly kit is a unique model with a slim buggy body and big tires. The rigid and lightweight bug-inspired polycarbonate body has a distinctive style with a front face employing twin headlights, side air intakes and a rear wing that flows into the body sides. Stickers feature designs such as name logos and blue graphics which are perfect for use with a black painted body. The gear-driven 4WD GF-02 chassis utilizes 4-wheel double wishbone suspension and is fitted with 123mm large diameter tires, to ensure powerful performance both on- and off- road.

GF-02 Chassis

The gear-driven 4WD GF-02 chassis features its motor in a low, central position in the lightweight, durable monocoque frame, and transmits power to front and rear via gears. The long wheelbase and wide tread setup ensure stable off-road performance. The slim frame is inspired by ladder/pipe layouts and features integrated sealed gearboxes which help keep dust and debris out. Front and rear gear differentials allow smooth cornering, while separately sold pinion gears offer a choice from three types of gear ratios, and a motor guard enhances reliability off-road. The 4-wheel double wishbone suspension employs four friction dampers, and the steering linkage uses identical-length tie-rods. Fluorescent yellow one-piece deep rim wheels are paired with 123mm diameter semi-pneumatic tires.
