Tamiya 18702 Aero Thunder Shot (AR Chassis)

Get the Wind on Your Side!
This high performance plastic Mini 4WD assembly kit is the second model launched in the aerodynamically-superior Mini 4WD REV Series, the Aero Thunder Shot. R/C veterans may well recognize its origins in the body of the classic Thunder Shot model. The model enjoys superior aerodynamics thanks to its integrated 1-piece body and smooth form including front bargeboards and 3-step rear wing. Furthermore, openings in the canopy and side pontoons allow air into the car to efficiently cool its battery and motor as it runs.

The Thunder Shot Lineage

The Thunder Shot racing buggy was a hit among R/C fans thanks to its high performance levels, and spawned such successors as the Racing Mini 4WD Series Thunder Shot Jr.

Low to the Ground
The model features a ground-hugging body and large-diameter tires on its lightweight wheels. Drivers can expect the impressive top speed to translate into racing performance, particularly on circuits with a long straight.
