Tamiya 18702 - TAMIYA MINI 4WD AERO THUNDERSHOT (AR)

Get the Wind on Your Side!

This high performance plastic Mini 4WD assembly kit is the second model launched in the aerodynamically-superior Mini 4WD REV Series, the Aero Thunder Shot. R/C veterans may well recognize its origins in the body of the classic Thunder Shot model. The model enjoys superior aerodynamics thanks to its integrated 1-piece body and smooth form including front bargeboards and 3-step rear wing. Furthermore, openings in the canopy and side pontoons allow air into the car to efficiently cool its battery and motor as it runs.

The Thunder Shot Lineage

The Thunder Shot racing buggy was a hit among R/C fans thanks to its high performance levels, and spawned such successors as the Racing Mini 4WD Series Thunder Shot Jr.

Low to the Ground

The model features a ground-hugging body and large-diameter tires on its lightweight wheels. Drivers can expect the impressive top speed to translate into racing performance, particularly on circuits with a long straight.

- Motor included
- Easy snap-on assembly

In pursuit of aerodynamic excellence

The AR chassis has the aerodnamics, durability, ease of maintenance, and adaptability that every Mini 4WD racer needs. Snap-together assembly makes underpanel and diffuser installation quick and easy.

A cool design in more ways than one

The chassis air intake design allows cool air to efficiently reach the motor, battery and mechanism thereby reducing performance loss from overheating.

Large canopy and 3-step rear wing

The distinctive smooth form of the Thunder Shot with its large canopy is combined with bargeboards, and the 3-step rear wing is integrated into the body side part. Features 6 low-friction 13mm rollers (double at the rear).
