Tamiya 71113 Boxing Fighter Battle Set - 2ch RC Boxing Robot Kit  [71113]

Tamiya 71113 Boxing Fighter Battle Set for Practical STEM Learning

The Tamiya 71113 Boxing Fighter Battle Set brings a tactile STEM project to the workbench, offering two remote-controlled boxing fighters driven by twin motor gearboxes. It is suited to newcomers and experienced hobbyists who want to explore mechanical interactions through head-to-head matches.

Robust Chassis and Hit Detection

Each fighter is moulded from durable ABS resin to withstand lively bouts. A judging plate drops when a fighter lands a successful strike to the opponent's mouth, providing a simple mechanical way to decide the winner. You can alter the challenge by fitting one or two stays to the bottom rear of a fighter to change its stability.

Controls and Fighting Options

The kit includes a dual-stick remote that gives direct control over each fighter's gearbox, with one lever per motor for nuanced movement. By adjusting the arm linkage you can select between a straight punch or an uppercut, adding tactical variety to each match.

Build Process and Presentation

Assembly uses a mix of screws and snap-lock parts for a straightforward build that is friendly to beginners yet engaging for experienced builders. The box is designed to fold into a display boxing ring, and sticker sheets let you customise the red and yellow fighters for a personalised look.
