Engine Overview: FS-15FD Performance

The FS-15FD .15 glow unit delivers straightforward power and includes a recoil starter for hassle-free ignition. Its layout is aimed at hobbyists who value dependable starts and consistent lap times from a compact nitro engine.

Chassis and Suspension: TNS-B15 Setup

The TNS-B15 chassis uses a shaft-driven 4WD system with a 2.5mm aluminium lower deck and a resin upper deck to blend light weight and strength. Independent double wishbone suspension with oil dampers and long-span arms helps the buggy stay composed over bumps and jumps.

Braking and Reliability

Braking is managed by a large diameter disc that provides steady stopping force, while sealed gearboxes and a metal spur gear help protect drivetrain components during regular off-road running.

RTR Finish and Body

The Mighty Ballista is shipped with a pre-painted polycarbonate shell and applied markings, so it looks race-ready straight away. The oversized rear wing adds visual presence and helps stability at speed.

The Tamiya 43535 Mighty Ballista makes a strong entry-level nitro option while still giving experienced drivers a platform that responds well to tuning and upgrades.
