For drivers who like a dash of nostalgia with contemporary function, the Tamiya 56715 TamTech-Gear Frog Mini GB-01S fits the bill. Its compact 1/10 footprint and electric drive make it suitable for quick practice sessions and neighbourhood runs.
The body keeps the Frog personality while relying on modern polycarbonate construction and reinforced mounts to handle everyday impacts and routine maintenance.
The GB-01S chassis provides crisp steering and steady acceleration control. Independent suspension helps maintain grip over rough ground while letting you explore different shock and spring setups.
The Frog Mini stands apart by pairing a heritage appearance with a chassis aimed at enjoyable handling rather than pure lap times, making it attractive for social runs and informal competition.
Start with conservative shock damping and adjust progressively. Check gear mesh regularly and use threadlocker on metal-to-metal fasteners to reduce the chance of parts loosening after heavy use.
Whether displayed or driven, the Tamiya 56715 TamTech-Gear Frog Mini GB-01S offers a satisfying mix of retro style and practical, tunable performance.
