Introducing the Raikiri with Panda Racer

The Tamiya Raikiri (Green) & Panda Racer pairs a see-through green body with a light green and white MA chassis to create a visually striking Mini 4WD that looks at home on both track and display.

Exterior Styling and Character

The body draws on high-speed touring car shapes for an aerodynamic profile that also looks aggressive. The Panda Racer figure adds charm, and the decal sheet offers options to customise your number and graphics.

MA Chassis Engineering Notes

The MA (Midship AERO) chassis places the motor centrally to aid weight distribution and airflow. Six low-friction rollers and a rear skid bar help maintain stability in corners and across bumpier sections of a course. The chassis assembly is accessible for a range of skill levels.

Practical Upgrade Paths

Upgrades such as different motors, tyre types and gearing let you adapt the Raikiri to specific track demands. The MA chassis accepts many Tamiya parts, giving room to refine handling and acceleration through tested tuning choices.

Specifications

  • Chassis Type: MA (Midship AERO)
  • Body Style: Sports Car

  • Assembly: Snap-together and screw-attachment

The Tamiya Raikiri (Green) & Panda Racer offers a balanced mix of showy looks and a tune-friendly MA chassis, making it an appealing option for hobbyists who want to race and customise their Mini 4WD.

Yes, with standard tuning the Raikiri can be prepared for club-level races, and its MA chassis supports common performance upgrades used in events.
A balance between acceleration and top speed is key; many racers start with stock gearing then test slightly higher or lower ratios depending on track length.
Use light coats of polycarbonate-safe paint rather than heavy layers, and apply clear protective film to high-wear zones to keep the shell looking sharp.
The MA chassis handles a variety of track surfaces but consider tyre choice and roller setup when running on less uniform surfaces to preserve speed and reduce wear.
