After the release of Item 58725 1/10 R/C Squash Van (GF-02) in 2023, we welcome the second new model paired with the gear-driven 4WD GF-02 chassis. While the Squash Van is a retro, actual-car-like model inspired by 1950s American panel vans, this Quirkhopper's concept is a slim, insect-like buggy body. The word "quirk" means something strange, unique and unexpected. Enjoy off-road performance and customisation of this kit as you like!
About the Model
About the GF-02 chassis
The gear-driven 4WD GF-02 chassis features its motor in a low, central position in the lightweight, durable monocoque frame, and transmits power to front and rear via gears. The long wheelbase and wide tread setup ensures stable off-road performance. The slim frame features ladder/pipe motifs and features integrated sealed gearboxes which help keep stones out. Front and rear gear differentials allow smooth cornering, while separately sold pinion gears offer a choice from three types of gear ratios, and a motor guard enhances reliability off-road. The 4-wheel double wishbone suspension employs four friction dampers, and the steering servo is positioned on the left with identical-length tie-rods.
