Tamiya 58124 Super Hornet: Vintage 2WD Buggy Built for Play

The Tamiya 58124 Super Hornet brings classic 1/10 scale buggy engineering into a buildable kit that is easy to maintain. Its traditional layout and rugged components make it a smart pick for hands-on hobbyists who like to tinker.

Start with shock oil weight and spring rate changes to alter body roll and landing control; small steps make a big difference.
Yes, the chassis can accept a brushless conversion with the right motor mount and ESC; check space and pinion gearing for fitment.
Keep pivot points clean and lightly greased, and inspect for wear after hard sessions to preserve smooth operation.
Compact LiPo packs that match the battery tray dimensions and weight balance work well; avoid oversized batteries that upset handling.
Many replacement parts and hop-up options are available from hobby suppliers, making repairs and upgrades straightforward.
