Built as a modern tribute to the Super Champ lineage, the Tamiya 84389 Fighting Buggy brings classic styling back into a package updated for current RC use. It keeps the original personality while adding improvements to make running and maintenance easier.
The ABS-bodied shell retains the iconic profile and is enhanced by an aluminium roof panel and wing for added rigidity. New decal sheets echo the historic look but are clearer and easier to apply for neat finished builds.
The 2.5mm FRP chassis forms a stiff base for independent suspension geometry. Front double trailing arms provide consistent steering feedback and the rear transverse damper with a separate oil tank and progressive spring offers adjustable compliance for varied surfaces.
The die-cast sealed gear case protects the direct drive arrangement intended for a 540-brushed motor. Combined with ribbed front tyres and spike rear tyres on three-piece wheels, the setup aims for dependable traction and easy maintenance between sessions.
The Tamiya 84389 Fighting Buggy is a good match for modellers who want a historically inspired machine that still performs well in practical off-road use.
