Black Livery on a Time-Honoured Platform

The Tamiya 47419 Monster Beetle Black Edition brings a monochrome twist to a recognised 1/10 2WD platform, marrying the classic profile with parts that are easy to service. The black body and chassis offer a clean aesthetic without altering the established layout.

Shell Design and Detail Work

The package includes a black polystyrene resin body with exaggerated fenders, a triple lamp array at the nose and a cropped rear section. Chrome-finished lamp surrounds and grab handles add detail, while the revised decals refresh the model's look.

Handling Package and Wheel Choice

Mounted on 130mm by 58mm lug pattern pin-spike tyres and gold plated wheels, the Monster Beetle delivers reliable grip on soft and uneven surfaces. The front double wishbone and rear trailing arm suspension, together with CVA oil filled dampers, produce stable and predictable handling.

Transmission, Motor and Essentials

The car uses a gear-driven 2WD system powered by a standard 540-type brushed motor, with universal driveshafts covered by rubber boots for protection. To finish the build you will need a 2-channel radio, ESC, steering servo and a 7.2-7.4V battery pack plus charger.

The Tamiya 47419 Monster Beetle Black Edition is ideal for modders and collectors who appreciate a retro profile with conventional, easy-to-source components for maintenance and upgrades.

It can be used for casual club events; its 2WD layout and stock tyres suit informal off-road races, though competitors often tweak gearing and tyres for track conditions.
Regularly inspect universal joints, check for loose screws, and keep the CVA dampers free of dirt to maintain consistent suspension response.
Yes, common upgrades include aluminium dampers, hardened drive axles and alternative wheels and tyres; these improve durability and handling depending on running style.
Clean off grit, remove batteries for storage, and keep the car in a cool dry place to avoid part degradation and sticker lift.
