The Tamiya Super Avante RS delivers a mix of aggressive styling and sensible upgrade paths for Mini 4WD fans. The Super-II chassis underpins the kit with a reliable layout for tuning and racing.
Designed with an off-road buggy look, the body shows aerodynamic shaping and a sturdy stance. The body is supplied in white PS so you can paint it to taste, while light blue ABS details add contrast. The included large fluorescent orange hard slick tyres boost its on-track presence.
The Super-II chassis uses blue ABS for a balance of rigidity and part compatibility. It is a good base for add-ons and comes fitted with light blue 13mm rollers that aid cornering and track hold.
Common upgrades include fitting higher performance motors, experimenting with tyre compounds, and tweaking gear ratios. The supplied 4.2:1 gearing provides a middle ground between torque and top speed for varied race formats.
Assembly is friendly for builders thanks to snap-fit components and clear instructions. The kit requires two AA batteries which are not included, and it contains a Type 130 motor so you can run the car after assembly.
Solidly built and easy to personalise, the Tamiya Super Avante RS is a good match for racers who enjoy incremental upgrades and track testing.
