Tamiya 57412 MudMad SW-01 1/24 Mini Monster Truck Kit  [57412]

Meet the MudMad Mini Monster

The Tamiya MudMad brings small-scale monster truck style to the SW-01 platform for drivers who want compact thrills. With design input from Takayaki Yamazaki, it blends rugged visual cues with straightforward engineering for enjoyable running sessions.

Engineered Around the SW-01

The SW-01 chassis concentrates components into a compact footprint. At 190mm long and 150mm wide it houses a central Type 370 motor in a monocoque assembly. Power is gear-driven to all four wheels for dependable traction, and the elevated motor position helps create dramatic wheelies under hard acceleration.

Lightweight Body and Agile Motion

The polycarbonate body is held by magnets for fast removal and comes pre-painted in PS-3 Light Blue. The shell shape allows it to tilt in turns, helping the model carve tighter lines and reducing roll during faster cornering.

Suspension Tuning and Steering Response

Strut-type independent coil-sprung suspension on each corner gives the MudMad the ability to handle uneven surfaces while preserving tyre contact. Single-piece upper arms keep steering inputs balanced, and front and rear diffs assist with tight turning without losing momentum.

The Tamiya MudMad on the SW-01 chassis is an excellent compact choice for pilots who enjoy agile, wheelie-friendly monster truck action.
