Retro Styling With Practical Engineering

The XB edition of the Grasshopper keeps the iconic silhouette while smoothing out the running experience. This Tamiya 57746 XB Grasshopper comes RTR and balances classic looks with sensible mechanical updates for reliable enjoyment.

Faithful Design, Tough Chassis

The Tamiya 57746 XB Grasshopper preserves the original aesthetic but adds a durable ABS bathtub frame to cope with everyday knocks. The body arrives pre-painted and stickered, saving fettling time, and a combination of plastic and metal bearings helps the drive train resist wear.

Engine and Suspension Details

Featuring a 380 electric motor, the car provides steady, predictable power for mixed-surface running. Its sealed rear gearbox keeps contaminants out, while the front swing axle and rear rigid suspension with coil springs deliver manageable handling. Traction comes from the extra-wide rear tyres and grooved fronts.

Ready to Run Straight Away

With Expec SP radio gear and the TEU-101 speed controller included, the model needs only batteries and minor setup. The minimal assembly and classic appeal make the Tamiya 57746 XB Grasshopper an accessible option for newcomers and a pleasant option for long-time collectors.

Yes, the stable handling and simple setup make it well suited to club sessions and backyard runs where reliability matters more than lap times.
You can swap to softer, more aggressive tyres to improve grip in damp or loose surfaces; make sure wheel hexes and offsets remain compatible.
Bring spare tyres, a set of shock springs, spare drive cups and basic screws. Those items cover the most common roadside fixes.
Perform a basic radio check and adjust steering and throttle trims for neutral behaviour before your first drive to avoid unexpected inputs.
