Tamiya 58122 Blitzer Beetle Off-Road Weekend Buggy Kit  [58122]

Blitzer Beetle - Ready for Off-Road Bashing

The Tamiya 58122 Blitzer Beetle offers a fun reinterpretation of the Volkswagen Beetle in a 1/10 scale 2WD package. Bright decals and large tyres give it a playful look while the chassis is tuned for simple, durable off-road use.

Construction and Finish

Made from ABS plastic, the body accepts decals for a customised finish and mounts securely to the plastic chassis. The worm of drive is a dog bone driven gearbox sending power to the rear wheels in a classic 2WD layout. The independent double wishbone suspension smooths out rough sections of track.

Powertrain and Dampers

Equipped with a conventional 540-brushed motor, the Blitzer Beetle produces dependable acceleration for grass and dirt. The oil-filled plastic shock absorbers help control rebounds and the rubber pin spike tyres grip loose surfaces. A mechanical ESC is provided in the kit to control motor speed once electronics are added.

Tamiya 58122 Blitzer Beetle works well for builders who want a straightforward, characterful buggy that handles basic off-road terrain and welcomes modest upgrades.
