Tamiya Jun Watanabe Hornet
About this product
The Tamiya Jun Watanabe Hornet is a 1/10 scale 2WD buggy kit. It arrives as a box of parts rather than a finished car, so you assemble the chassis, fit the electronics and paint or trim the body before the first run.
The body is polycarbonate, so it takes knocks better than a hard shell.
Tamiya supply a 540 motor and an electronic speed controller in the box.
