Overview of the Tamiya 95308 Bigwig RS
The Tamiya 95308 Bigwig RS packs Mini 4WD performance into a compact off-road buggy style. Built around the Super-II chassis, this kit blends a retro buggy silhouette with parts and features aimed at racers who like to tune gearing and suspension for better lap times. Its RS detailing gives it a purposeful race look while remaining friendly to hobby builders.
Visuals and Body Styling
The model shows off a Royal Blue PS body that echoes classic off-road buggies while staying track-ready. Metallic sticker accents bring a modern sheen, and the large matte plated 6-spoke wheels paired with black slick tyres create a balanced visual and functional package that grips smooth track surfaces well.
Super-II Chassis Features
The Super-II chassis used here is moulded in Black and Light Gun Metal ABS, offering a sturdy platform that accepts common Mini 4WD tuning parts. Its layout supports straightforward setup changes, and the 4.2:1 gear ratio gives a sensible mix of acceleration and top speed for a variety of racing conditions.
Tuning and Upgrade Options
Owners can pursue a number of upgrades including higher-output motors, track-specific tyres, and precision gear sets to fine tune acceleration and handling. Ballast, dampers, and different wheel setups can also be used to dial in cornering balance on technical circuits.
Assembly and Practical Tips
This kit is assembled with snap-fit components and common modelling tools. A small Phillips screwdriver and plastic side cutters are the basic requirements, letting builders concentrate on setup and race-day tuning rather than complex construction.
