Classic Grasshopper Candy Green - Tamiya 47348 2WD Buggy Kit  [47348]

Classic Grasshopper Reborn in Candy Green

For RC hobbyists and collectors, the Tamiya 47348 Grasshopper Candy Green Edition brings back a beloved kit with a fresh finish. The vivid Candy Green pre-painted ABS body keeps the model looking sharp out of the box while preserving the simple charm that made the original a go-to starter project.

Great Entry-Level Build for Newcomers

The Grasshopper is known for a beginner-friendly assembly that helps new builders learn common RC techniques. The bathtub-style chassis and the included ESC simplify setup, delivering a dependable baseline that is easy to maintain and repair after a day on rough tracks.

Off-Road Handling You Can Rely On

This rear-wheel-drive buggy balances simplicity and capability with independent swing axle front suspension and a rigid rear axle paired with friction dampers. The sealed gearbox and gear differential ensure steady power transfer, while paddle rear and grooved front tires give reliable traction on dirt and gravel.

Room to Upgrade and Tune

The supplied 380-type motor is suitable for learning and casual driving, and the chassis accepts a Type 540 motor for those wanting more speed. That upgrade path makes the Grasshopper a model that can evolve as the driver gains skill and confidence.

The Tamiya 47348 Grasshopper Candy Green Edition is an ideal first kit for anyone entering the hobby, and its straightforward upgrade potential keeps it interesting for more experienced builders looking for a retro project.
