Reviving Hornet Character in an X-SA Package

The Hornet has a long-standing reputation among R/C enthusiasts, and the X-SA variant brings that personality back with reduced assembly. This semi-assembled release makes it simpler to enjoy the original handling and style.

X-SA Approach for Practical Enthusiasts

The X-SA format suits hobbyists who prefer tuning and driving over long build sessions. The Tamiya 46703 arrives with a built chassis and a painted Hornet body, requiring only your choice of transmitter, steering servo and battery to run.

Ride Quality and Mechanical Protection

The scale model features an independent swing axle at the front with friction dampers and a rear rolling rigid axle fitted with oil-filled dampers for improved control. A sealed rear gearbox protects the differential and helps longevity in off-road use.
