The Tamiya 47201 TLT-1 Rock Buster delivers big-truck behavior in a compact 1/18 format, pairing full 4WD with a sturdy aluminium chassis for reliable trail performance. Its size makes it easy to run in confined spots while still coping with uneven outdoor surfaces.
As part of the Little Gear Series, this model is compatible with widely available electronics like 540 motors, standard ESCs, and common servos, giving you flexibility when assembling. The short overall length keeps the truck agile, and the tough polycarbonate shell stands up to rough play.
The suspension employs a four-link cantilever design and four aluminium oil-filled dampers to control body movement and improve traction. Four-wheel steering uses two servos to add responsiveness, making it simpler to negotiate tight rock gardens or trail features.
A range of optional parts lets builders personalise the TLT-1, from anodised turnbuckles to performance pinion gears. Upgrades focused on reducing rotating mass and improving drivetrain efficiency will sharpen throttle response and overall agility.
The TLT-1 is a versatile platform for fans who like to tweak setup and add hop-ups. It rewards careful tuning and is well suited to both casual trail drives and focused hobby sessions.
