Tamiya RC Egress 2013 Off Road Buggy - Item #58583

1/10 Scale 4WD

This is a re-release of the iconic Egress 4WD off-road racing buggy. The Egress first appeared in 1989. It was a follow up kit to the Avante kit, which had a huge fan following.

The original Egress featured stacks of special racing parts. The Egress (2013) builds upon the racy original of the same name, adding modern parts to bring it fully up to speed with available battery and motor technologies available in the hobby market today.

Shaft Drive 4WD!

This shaft-driven 4WD chassis features a longitudinally positioned motor and full ball bearings, while carbon fibre upper and lower decks ensure that the model has superb strength. Re-designed front and rear ball differentials offer excellent reliability and easy maintenance, working in tandem with the built-in centre one-way to provide sure-footed movement.

The one-way bearing is lockable as a set up option. Universal drive shafts feature the same design as those used in the current TRF series parts, to maximise power transmission and improve resistance to wear and tear. 4-wheel double wishbone suspension, supported by four oil dampers equipped with aluminium cylinders, while the front and rear of the model is equipped with stabilisers for enhanced corning performance.

Aluminium front uprights offer excellent reliability, and ball bearings in steering linkage arms combine with 2mm thick carbon fibre plate to offer a linear steering response.
