TAMIYA SUPER SABRE (2023)
1/10 R/C SUPER SABRE 2023
At the Sharp End
This R/C model assembly kit is a re-released and updated version of the Super Sabre, a beginner-friendly buggy released in 1987. It is based upon a bathtub frame chassis with 4WD and CVA oil dampers: a recipe for off-road success enhanced by gripps hybrid tires. The aerodynamic polycarbonate body is pre-painted and pre-cut, and really looks the part on this speedy model.
Capable Off-Road Chassis
This shaft-driven 4WD chassis has a midship motor and sealed front and rear gearboxes, each containing a differential gear for smooth cornering. It is broken down into three easily-maintained sections: bathtub frame and gearboxes, and features short CVA oil dampers on the double-wishbone suspension, plus a front stabilizer to combat roll. Oval block/pin spike hybrid tires deliver superb grip, and together with the efficient 4WD make the Super Sabre right at home off-road.
