Overview of the Tamiya 84163 Buggy Champ 2009 Release

The Buggy Champ played a major role in early off-road RC culture, and the 2009 limited run honours that lineage. This Expert Built edition keeps the look of the original while improving durability for current hobby use.

Durable FRP and Aluminium Chassis

A 2mm FRP base combined with an aluminium reinforcing plate gives the chassis both edge protection and controlled flexibility. The setup delivers a robust platform that copes well with rough terrain and club tracks.

Off-Road Focused Suspension

The model uses a full independent suspension scheme with front double trailing arms and a rear swing axle. Die-cast arms and oil dampers smooth impacts and keep the tyres planted for confident cornering.

Shielded Electrics and Low-Friction Running

The clear plastic mechanism box helps keep dirt away from the battery and electronics. Full ball bearings lower friction losses in the drivetrain, while the block tread tyres provide predictable traction on varied surfaces.

The Buggy Champ 2009 Limited Edition is a tidy mix of classic styling and practical upgrades, suitable for anyone who enjoys historic models that still perform on modern tracks.

Yes, its resilient chassis and oil dampers handle casual off-road use well, making it a good choice for backyard runs and club practice.
Compact LiPo or NiMH packs that do not exceed L:70mm W:35mm H:20mm will fit the battery compartment comfortably.
This Expert Built release reduces assembly needs but you will still need to install radio gear, battery and any optional electronics before running.
The block tread pattern gives good traction on loose and mixed surfaces; on very hardpack you may notice reduced bite compared with specialist tyres.
