Tamiya 47481 Super Avante 1/10 Pre-Painted Off-Road Buggy Kit  [47481]

Tamiya 47481 Super Avante Detailed Overview

The Tamiya 47481 Super Avante is a limited-run 1/10 scale R/C kit that blends a ready-painted polycarbonate shell with race-oriented styling. Designed by Kota Nezu of Znug Design, this edition highlights unique color accents and Tamiya engineering aimed at hobbyists who want a track-ready look straight from the box.

TD4 Chassis Features and Layout

The TD4 platform uses a shaft-driven 4WD setup combined with a front inboard suspension to achieve a compact, low-profile silhouette. The midship transverse motor and longitudinal battery placement help balance the car, while full ball bearings and sealed gearboxes with ball differentials improve drivetrain smoothness and reliability.

Suspension Tuning and Steering Details

Handling comes from a 4-wheel independent double wishbone layout fitted with CVA oil dampers for consistent shock control. Adjustable camber via turnbuckle shaft upper arms lets you fine tune cornering, and two wing stay options permit quick changes to rear downforce for varied surfaces.

Pre-Painted Body and Race-Oriented Styling

The pre-painted polycarbonate body arrives pre-cut for an easier build, and the yellow chassis bits and damper springs mark this release as distinctive. Star dish wheels with square spike tires supply strong traction for off-road conditions, keeping the Super Avante planted during aggressive runs.

This Tamiya 47481 Super Avante kit suits hobbyists who want a near-ready aesthetic combined with a performance-oriented TD4 chassis. It is a practical choice for collectors and racers seeking easy assembly and tunable handling.
