Shape Your Ride with the Thunder Dragon Body

The Tamiya 47473 - 1/10 Thunder Dragon Body Parts Set gives modellers an unpainted polycarbonate shell to personalise. Its lightweight construction withstands knocks while keeping the car responsive during club runs and practice sessions.

Body Set Features

Material: Tough polycarbonate that is both light and impact resistant, helping maintain predictable handling.
Customization: Delivered clear so you can create your own paint scheme, decals and masked graphics for a unique finish.
Included Accessories: Includes marking stickers for decal placement and masking stickers to assist clean paint separation.
Compatibility: Specifically cut for Thunder Dragon (Thunder Shot) and Hornet (Super Storm Dragon) chassis; fitment on other cars will vary.

Fitting Notes

Check all mounting points and metal fixtures for clearance before final assembly. Use the supplied masking stickers to protect areas and get sharp paint boundaries, and avoid over-tightening body screws.

Do I need special paint for the polycarbonate body?

Use paints designed for polycarbonate bodies to ensure proper adhesion and flexibility. Apply several light coats and allow adequate drying time between layers.

How should I position the body for best clearance?

Trial-fit the body over the chassis to check wheel and suspension travel. Mark and adjust mounting holes if required to prevent rubbing during full suspension articulation.

Any recommendations for protecting the finished paint?

Allow paint to cure fully, then consider a clear lacquer designed for polycarbonate if you need extra gloss or scratch resistance. Test on a spare piece first.
