Tamiya The Frog

The 2WD racing buggy Frog made quite a splash when it was first presented to the public in 1983 thanks to its eye-catching design and high performance running capabilities. The Frog is now making a comeback, and while it has been updated for the modern age, its fundamental structure has essentially remained the same.

While the trailing-arm type of rear suspension has maintained its distinctive space frame, the oil dampers for the trailing-arm type have been upgraded to diaphragm type. The dogbone type joint found in the rear drive shaft ensures that power is transmitted reliably. The sleek polycarbonate body has not been changed, and the 3-piece wheels now have grooved and spiked tyres on the front and rear, respectively, for superior performance off-road.

2WD Chassis (n.) jam-packed with features exclusive to the Innovation Electric R/C racing buggy.
A lightweight yet rugged form that is ideal for off-road running thanks to a space frame made of ABS plastic and nylon for the suspension and bumper. The battery is kept in an extremely low position, which provides this vehicle with the stability and weight balance necessary to handle challenging terrain and extreme jumps.

The front suspension is of the double-wishbone type and features an inboard spring as well as a durable steel radius arm. The rear suspension is independent on all four wheels. Effective shock absorption is provided by the rear trailing arm type, which is characterised by horizontally mounted aluminium cylinder oil dampers. High-speed cornering can be maintained thanks to the sealed differential gearbox.
