Period Look with Modern RTR Convenience

The Tamiya 57842 Fast Attack Vehicle pairs historic wartime styling with a user-friendly ready-to-run package. The shark nose graphics and star markings give a bold scale appearance while keeping setup simple for club runs and weekend trails.

Tuned for Trail and Park Sessions

The car uses a tough 1/10 scale chassis and ABS shell to withstand everyday impacts. A roll cage adds protection and the fully independent double wishbone suspension keeps handling predictable. Power comes from a tried-and-tested 540-brushed motor driving a 2WD gearbox for reliable traction on loose surfaces.

Included Electronics and Practical Features

Included is a TEU-105BK electronic speed controller and a 2.4GHz radio system so you can drive right away. Friction shock units and rally-block tyres boost off-road grip. There are no factory-installed LEDs, but the model focuses on authentic scale detail and rugged mechanical basics.

If you want a robust, display-worthy RC that is also ready to run off-road, the Tamiya 57842 Fast Attack Vehicle provides a dependable base and striking scale looks. It is a good starting point for tuning and visual upgrades.

Basic hand tools like hex drivers and a small spanner are all you need for shock and link adjustments. A hobby stand helps when working on setup and alignment.
Yes, lightweight scale accessories can be glued or mounted to the ABS shell, but avoid heavy items that upset balance or interfere with suspension travel.
Upgrading to oil-filled shocks and higher-traction tyres will noticeably improve ride control. A brushless motor and matched ESC also boost responsiveness if you want increased speed and torque.
Yes, trim and end points on the transmitter adjust steering throw. Mechanical tweaks like changing bell-crank geometry require careful parts swaps for predictable results.
Replacement ABS bodies are usually available through hobby dealers and can be repainted or customised to freshen a tired shell.
