Tamiya 57741 Hornet Vintage Style 1/10 RTR  [57741]

Classic Returns: Tamiya 57741 Hornet Edition

Recognised by many RC enthusiasts, the Hornet returns in the Tamiya 57741 ready-to-run format, preserving the original silhouette while using reliable components suited to regular use. This reissue keeps maintenance simple while maintaining period appeal.

Track-Proven Handling Characteristics

Thanks to its bathtub chassis and the Type 540 motor, the Hornet offers a familiar handling balance that suits both smooth surfaces and light off-road trails. Its setup prioritises predictable feedback for drivers refining their skills.

Trusted Mechanical Design

The front independent swing axle with friction dampers pairs with a rolling rigid rear axle using oil-filled dampers to provide stable behaviour in corners. The sealed rear gearbox helps protect internal gears from dust and grit.

Authentic Styling and Durable Construction

The polycarbonate body captures the original Hornet look and stands up to routine knocks. The three-piece wheels come with straight ribbed fronts and spiked rear tyres for a combined on-road and off-road compromise, while the reinforced resin bumper helps protect the nose during impacts.

The Tamiya Hornet 57741 is a faithful nod to a beloved design, offering approachable performance and period aesthetics for model collectors and club drivers alike.
