Details on the Tamiya 57755 Sand Viper desert style buggy

The Tamiya 57755 Sand Viper is a 1/10 scale Ready-to-Run buggy that replicates desert racer aesthetics while remaining practical for everyday use. Suitable for beginners and seasoned RC drivers, it balances ease of use with upgrade potential. The 2WD DT02 chassis provides stable handling over rough ground.

Thoughtful layout and dependable suspension

The bathtub chassis secures the radio gear and battery toward the centre to help even out weight distribution. This arrangement improves steering stability. The fully independent double wishbone suspension on all four corners allows for full travel and consistent wheel contact on uneven surfaces.

Painted polycarbonate shell with rugged styling

The lightweight polycarbonate body comes painted and marked to mimic a desert viper theme, offering visual character without sacrificing strength. Its low mass contributes to agile handling.

Practical drivetrain and tyre choices

Factory-fitted wide grooved front tyres and spiked rear tyres give balanced traction and directional control. The sealed differential gearbox reduces dirt entry for smoother operation, while the Type 540 electric motor supplies straightforward power for recreational racing.

The Tamiya 57755 Sand Viper is a sensible RTR option for hobbyists wanting a low-hassle off-road buggy with clear upgrade routes and dependable components.

Yes. The RTR setup and forgiving suspension make it a good starting point while still allowing the driver to learn setup adjustments and maintenance.
Fit a charged battery, set transmitter trims and endpoints, confirm wheel nut tightness and check that the steering servo responds correctly before heading out.
Yes, on short grass and light trails the chassis and tyres perform well, though very long wet grass or dense undergrowth can load the drivetrain and should be avoided.
Inspect the gearbox after rough sessions; clean any debris, check gear mesh and apply light grease as needed. Regular checks will extend the life of components.
