Heritage Replica of WWII Fast Attack Vehicles

The Tamiya 57842 Fast Attack Vehicle honours classic military light utility machines, capturing the period look with shark mouth art and air force star markings. This ready-to-run model brings that wartime style into your RC lineup while staying practical for everyday use.

Prepared for Mixed-Surface Off-Roading

Built on a solid 1/10 scale platform, the chassis and ABS body are made to take knocks from rough ground. A protective roll cage and fully independent double wishbone suspension keep the vehicle composed, while the 2WD gear drive fed by a 540-brushed motor delivers straightforward torque for dirt, grass, and gravel runs.

Factory Electronics and Handling Details

The kit ships with a TEU-105BK ESC and a 2.4GHz radio set so you can drive out of the box. Friction dampers paired with rally block tyres help the car grip loose surfaces. It has authentic detailing but does not include LED lighting, which keeps the focus on mechanical realism.

For RC fans who like military styling and simple, durable performance, the Tamiya 57842 Fast Attack Vehicle is a reliable addition. Its detailed paintwork and rock-solid basic platform make it a fun, low-fuss runner for casual off-road sessions.

Routine upkeep is simple: check the suspension links, clean out debris from the chassis, and refresh drivetrain grease as needed. Shielded bearings reduce cleaning frequency.
Yes, the chassis accepts common 540-size upgrades. You will also need a compatible ESC and possibly a different pinion gear to match the new motor's rpm.
Open-block rally tyres or mixed-terrain rubber provide better bite on loose dirt and grass compared with smooth street tyres. Match tyre diameter to stock spec to avoid gearing changes.
The included 2.4GHz radio is straightforward and adequate for hobbyist use. For advanced tuning you might swap to a transmitter with trimming and endpoint adjustments.
