Classic Design Remastered for Off-Road Running

The Tamiya 47457 - 1/10 Fire Dragon (2020) revives a well known body style while adding reliable mechanical bits to keep it competitive and durable on loose and rough terrain.

Materials and Shock Setup

Constructed around an ABS chassis with a lightweight polycarbonate body, this kit uses CVA oil-filled shocks to smooth impacts and keep the wheels tracking over rough sections.

Practical Setup and Power

The independent double wishbone suspension gives a broad tuning window for handling. A standard 540-brushed motor is the intended fit; pairing it with a matching ESC and a solid steering servo will let you fine tune acceleration and cornering.

Comparing the Retro Options

Although the Thunder Shot shares similar underpinnings, the Fire Dragon has a different visual identity and decal set. Both are capable, so the choice is often driven by which look you prefer to drive or display.
