The Iconic Tamiya Frog Returns!

Originally introduced in 1983, the 2WD Tamiya Frog buggy created a huge splash with its unusual design and high performance. This model, along with others from various manufactures, are credited with starting the RC off-road craze in America. The Frog now makes a comeback, modernized where applicable, but with its basic architecture essentially intact. Maintaining use of its characteristic space frame, the shock absorbers for the trailing-arm rear suspension have been updated to a diaphragm-type, while rear dogbone-style driveshafts deliver reliable power transmission. The sleek polycarbonate body remains the same, while original 3-piece wheels feature front grooved and rear spike tires for excellent off-road performance. This specific kit version also includes a Hobbywing 1060 Brushed ESC for convenience and ease of operation.

Packed with Innovation

The Frog features an ABS space frame with nylon suspension components and bumper for a lightweight yet rugged chassis that is perfect for off road running. The battery compartment is located in an ultra-low position, giving the Frog the stability and balance needed to handle the roughest terrain and tallest jumps. Advanced 4-wheel independent suspension features a double wishbone-type front assembly featuring inboard springs and durable steel radius arms. Rear trailing arms contain horizontally mounted aluminum oil-filled dampers, while a sealed gearbox with differential ensures optimal cornering. Full gearbox ball bearings and three available  gear ratio offers maximum efficiency regardless of terrain!
