Heritage Meets Trail-Ready Performance in the Tamiya 58124 Super Hornet

Longtime RC builders know the Tamiya 58124 Super Hornet as a standout 1/10 scale buggy that blends enduring style with practical function. This 2WD kit delivers a straightforward build and rugged behavior on loose surfaces, thanks to its swing axle front suspension and rolling rigid rear axle.

Design and handling overview

The Super Hornet pairs a simple yet effective 2WD chassis with tuning options that reward driver input. The swing axle front end lets the buggy turn responsively, while the rolling rigid rear axle keeps the rear predictable over rough sections. Together they offer a balanced mix of agility and stability for club tracks and backyard runs.

Key features that matter

Compared to other classic Tamiya kits like the Grasshopper and Frog, the Super Hornet stands out for its durable construction and user-friendly setup. Oil-filled shock absorbers help control rebound and maintain traction, while the bright wheels provide grip and a distinctive look on varied terrain.
