Tamiya RC 1/10 Wild Willy 2 Off-Road Wheelie Truck Kit

The Tamiya RC 1/10 Wild Willy 2 is a reproduction of the popular original Wild Willy from the mid-1980s. The new Wild Willy features an all-new chassis and larger tyres, allowing it to tread over rough terrain with ease. Of course, the Wild Willy's trademark remains its animated wheelie capability, thanks to an all-new wheelie bar.

Please note this is an unassembled kit requiring assembly; it ships as a build-it-yourself kit and does not arrive pre-built or ready to run.

The WR-02 chassis features a heavy-duty monocoque with side frames to increase rigidity. The RC unit, motor, and battery pack are positioned along the centreline of the chassis, and the motor's power is delivered to the rear wheels via a fully-enclosed gearbox equipped with a differential. A wheelie bar is fitted to enable exciting, wheels-in-the-air driving action, while 4-wheel double wishbone suspension and a 2-piece steering tie-rod offer smooth steering response. Tyres, wheels, and the gearbox/motor assembly come pre-assembled for ease of build.
