Iconic stunt buggy with ready-to-run convenience

The Tamiya 57743 Wild Willy 2 revives a classic stunt buggy formula for RC fans who value showy moves and simple ownership. This RTR package combines a nostalgic body with a durable WR02 chassis for dependable stunt practice.

Chassis engineering and reinforcement

The WR02 chassis is designed to keep the gearbox and drivetrain secure, using a monocoque framing approach. Additional side support bars help stiffen the overall structure so the model remains robust during aggressive runs.

Performance layout and handling traits

A 540 motor provides steady power suitable for wheelies and everyday driving. Placing the battery toward the rear improves balance for front lifts. Steering is managed by a centrally mounted servo with equal-length tie rods for even steering geometry, while independent suspension and large tyres deliver traction and control on varied terrain.

What is included and setup essentials

The buggy includes a pre-painted body and comes assembled to save time. You get an Expec 2-channel transmitter and the TEU-101BK ESC in the kit, but you must supply your own battery and charger. The included painted driver adds a finishing touch.
