Tamiya Manta Ray - 2018

Tamiya Manta Ray - 2018

Since its first debut in 1990, this radio-controlled car has garnered a lot of attention due to its popularity as a beginner-level off-road buggy as well as an easily upgradeable car for experienced radio-control hobbyists. Polycarbonate, which is both lightweight and sturdy, is used to construct the body, which takes its design cues from the sleek and curved shape of Manta Rays. The big rear wing is responsible for providing downforce, and the all-terrain spike tires that are mounted on dish wheels are responsible for providing grip. This combination allows for great handling on any surface.

All of the radio components, including the battery and the R/C mechanics, are strategically placed in the middle of the honeycomb bathtub structure to ensure that they are in perfect equilibrium. The bathtub chassis of the vehicle is coupled with a four-wheel double wishbone suspension and is fitted with CVA oil dampers to ensure a stable running experience in difficult off-road conditions. This four-wheel powertrain is equipped with front and rear sealed gearboxes, as well as internal differential gear units, which allow for smooth cornering. Additionally, the gearbox itself is equipped with a quick-access hatch, which makes maintenance more convenient and less of a problem.
