The motor is mounted at the rear end, with a 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension featuring a unique front-mounted horizontal friction damper system allowing for an accurate low silhouette. It is designed for joyride, not for racing. You can use a 370 class brushless motor on it but don&#8217;t make it too powerful as the plastic ball differential unit will break. It also has a slipper clutch, which is pretty fancy.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OdNo-8MhWgs\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Tamiya TamTech RC car is a line of smaller scale RC cars that was first introduced in the early 2000s.
