The Tamiya Avante 47390 Black Special brings a contemporary build package to a design rooted in RC history. As a limited edition release, it reflects the Mini 4WD inspired look while delivering parts that help the car cope with demanding off-road use.
This model uses a shaft-driven 4WD arrangement that evolved from Tamiya trailblazers such as the Hotshot. The FRP double-deck chassis is laid out for longitudinal motor and battery placement, supported by a compact gearbox and centre differential that aid stability and consistent traction.
The Black Special upgrades include universal drive-shafts and machined aluminium uprights to boost strength. Carbon fibre upper and lower decks at 2mm thickness and a reinforced rear damper stay deliver a lightweight yet robust structure suited to competitive off-road running.
A good match for collectors and active racers who appreciate a classic silhouette updated with stronger materials, the Tamiya Avante 47390 Black Special balances nostalgia and practical upgrades.
