Characterful Hornet styling on a sturdy WR-02CB base

The Tamiya 57909 XB Comical Hornet captures the iconic Hornet vibe in a playful, compact body fitted to the WR-02CB chassis. This ready-to-run 1/10 model is suitable for display and spirited driving alike, arriving pre-assembled for convenience.

Nostalgic design meets sensible layout

Recognisable Hornet features are exaggerated for a comical effect, yet the chassis layout remains practical. The WR-02CB framework supports neat internals and offers good ground clearance for casual use.

Balance, grip and stunt potential

The WR-02CB provides balanced handling that rewards smooth inputs and allows for basic stunts. The 2WD drive and grippy tyres help maintain traction on paved and firm surfaces, while the wheelie bar gives added control during wheelstands.

Start running quickly with minimal extras

Provided pre-painted with a pre-installed 2.4GHz radio system, the 57909 needs only a battery and charger to be out on the road, making it an easy pick for new hobbyists and collectors.

The Tamiya XB Comical Hornet blends classic styling and a practical WR-02CB chassis to deliver an enjoyable, low-hassle RC experience.

Yes. The 57909 is RTR with the radio fitted and the body pre-painted; you only need to add a suitable battery and a charger.
The car is compatible with standard 7.2V NiMH packs out of the box. If using LiPo or other chemistries, confirm fit and electronics compatibility first.
Owners often swap tyres for grip, change gearing for speed, or fit a more powerful motor for stronger acceleration on the WR-02CB platform.
Routine checks such as tightening screws, inspecting gears and cleaning after dusty runs keep the model reliable and are straightforward for most hobbyists.
