TAMIYA 18663 Mini 4WD PRO Raizzan (ME Chassis)

Total length: 156 mm. The photo shows the kit assembled and painted. [New Generation Form and Performance: Introducing the Raizan] This is a plastic assembly kit of a four-wheel-drive racer that delivers high-performance performance and fun racing. The Mini 4WD Raizan was designed by Kota Nezu, who also designed the Raikiri and Elegritter . The low, sharp body is inspired by birds of prey such as falcons and eagles, and features red body panels attached to a smoke-colored center section reminiscent of the monocoque structure of high-end sports cars. Not only can you assemble it as if you were building the actual car, but you can also remove the panels for an open-top finish. The ME chassis is equipped with a double-shaft motor for excellent drive efficiency. The delicately designed T-spoke wheels provide a firm grip and are fitted with small, low-profile tires. [The ME Chassis Improves Drive Efficiency and Lightweight] The ME chassis is the third double-shaft motor-equipped chassis, following the MS and MA models. "ME" stands for "Midship Evolution." Developed with the concept of being "light, flexible, and easy to use," this chassis has just the right amount of flexibility for excellent road-holding performance while still maintaining sufficient torsional rigidity for the drivetrain. Furthermore, it achieves a lighter weight while maintaining the ease of assembly of the MA chassis. The chassis body and rollers, as well as other A-parts, are made from lightweight, highly rigid ABS resin, while the shaft bearings are made from low-friction POM resin. The front and rear bumpers are also separate and are attached to the chassis body with screws. A gear ratio of 3.5:1 is standard, enabling high-speed driving.
