Ready to bash: Wild Willy 2 returns

The Tamiya 57743 Wild Willy 2 is a retro-styled stunt buggy that appeals to RC pilots who enjoy wheelies and light bashing. Supplied Ready-to-Run, it blends nostalgic looks with a practical WR02 chassis that stands up to play.

Sturdy WR02 chassis and support bracing

The WR02 chassis provides a durable foundation, with a monocoque section that secures the gearbox and side support bars that reinforce the frame. This construction helps the buggy tolerate the stresses of stunt driving.

Drive system, balance and steering

Equipped with a 540 motor, the Wild Willy 2 offers consistent performance for tricks and casual runs. The battery's rearward location helps the front lift for dramatic wheelies. Steering is handled by a central servo and equal-length tie rods for reliable, predictable response. Independent suspension and large tyres give added traction and stability.

Box contents and what to expect

You will receive a fully assembled chassis and a pre-painted body for immediate use. The package includes an Expec 2-channel transmitter and the TEU-101BK ESC, but batteries and a charger are not included. A painted driver figure completes the look.

For hobbyists after an uncomplicated, durable stunt platform, the Wild Willy 2 is a solid pick. Its simple setup and classic personality make it fun to run and easy to upgrade over time.

Yes. The chassis and suspension cope well with casual off-road bashing, though extremely rough terrain may call for tougher upgrades.
The central steering servo with equal-length tie rods offers dependable steering. For heavy stunt work, consider servo upgrades for quicker response and more torque.
Smooth pavement is fine for casual runs and wheelies, but tyre wear will be higher than on soft surfaces. Choose tyres suited for the surface to improve longevity.
Check the gearbox, suspension pivots and steering linkages after sessions. Keep screws tightened and inspect for worn parts to maintain peak performance.
