Reissued after its 1985 debut, the Wild One brings classic styling back to the dirt. This 1/10 model pairs a resilient ABS chassis with modern compatibility for common battery packs and LF cell formats.
Ride control comes from a fully independent double wishbone layout and oil-filled aluminium shock absorbers that smooth bumpy runs. The 2WD drivetrain and dogbone-style driveshafts offer a reliable, low-maintenance power path, while shielded ball bearings improve longevity.
The structure uses FRP elements to add rigidity where needed, and the clear polycarbonate shell is an ideal canvas for paint. Pin spike rubber tyres provide predictable traction on loose soil and hard tracks. The TEU-105BK ESC and 540-brushed motor are included to get you started once you install batteries and radio gear.
Adjustable toe and ride height let you dial the handling to suit sandy surfaces or tighter circuits. Remember to supply a 7.2V battery, charger and radio system to complete the build and run the model.
The Wild One is an approachable classic for hobbyists who like to run, upgrade and personalise their buggies. It is well suited to club-level off-road use and scenic display builds.
