Heritage Rebuilt: Tamiya 47442 - 1/10 Terra Scorcher 2020

The Tamiya 47442 - 1/10 Terra Scorcher 2020 returns a beloved off-road model with careful updates to meet contemporary hobby standards. The limited edition keeps the period styling while integrating improvements that boost reliability and handling.

Drivetrain Details and Durability

The model rides on a solid 4WD chassis related to the Fire Dragon reissue and uses a shaft-driven arrangement to transfer power through universal joints to three-bevel differentials in sealed casings. Full ball bearings are used to reduce wear and maintain smooth operation.

Precision Suspension and Setup

Handling comes from a double wishbone suspension with upper I-arms and lower H-arms, fitted with CVA oil dampers. Adjustable upper arms provide setup flexibility and front and rear stabilisers help control roll for sharper cornering.

Kit Requirements and Finishing Touches

The kit includes an ESC but requires a 2-channel radio, steering servo and a 7.2V battery pack plus charger to complete. The clear polycarbonate body is compatible with Tamiya PS paint for custom livery and detailing.

Collectors and active drivers will appreciate the Tamiya 47442 - 1/10 Terra Scorcher 2020 for its faithful styling and sensible mechanical upgrades, offering a rewarding build and capable off-road handling.
