Intro to the Flame Astute Red Metallic Special AR Variant

The Tamiya 95209 Flame Astute Red Metallic Special is a Mini 4WD kit that blends an aero-focused shell with the AR chassis platform, suitable for enthusiasts who value both styling and tunability on the track.

Exterior Styling and Livery

The special finish uses matte red metallic paint across the body and wheel faces for a uniform presentation. Red, white and blue decals and metallic emblems lend a refined racing look that suits display or circuit use.

AR Chassis Characteristics

The AR chassis is injection moulded in black ABS and designed for efficient airflow and structural durability. The black underpanel and diffuser complete the cohesive design while aiding stable handling characteristics.

Performance and Upgrade Routes

Standard upgrades include higher performance 130 motors, track-appropriate tyres and precision gear sets. The supplied 3.5:1 gear ratio provides a balanced compromise between acceleration and top speed.

Assembly Guidance

Built with a snap-fit assembly system, the kit is approachable for first-time builders and modders alike. With many pieces in base colours, you can either leave the factory look or apply custom paint and decals.

The Tamiya 95209 Flame Astute Red Metallic Special combines attractive styling with an AR chassis that welcomes sensible upgrades, making it a good choice for competitive hobbyists and collectors.
