Tamiya TD-2 Astute 2022 RC Buggy Electric 2WD 1/10 Scale Kit

The Tamiya Astute 2022 TD2 is a high-performance 1/10 scale electric 2WD buggy kit inspired by the original Astute. Its sleek low-profile body was designed by Kota Nezu, while the advanced TD2 chassis features a mid-mounted motor and rear-positioned battery for excellent balance and rear-wheel traction.

Built as an assembly kit, the Astute 2022 is an excellent choice for RC enthusiasts who enjoy building, tuning and driving their own buggy.
