This aluminum rear underguard is an RC-scale hop-up made for the Tamiya Hornet EVO (58742) chassis. Finished in red anodizing, the component offers a hard-wearing surface under the rear section to help limit wear from impacts and abrasive track contact while still allowing routine access for maintenance.
The underguard acts as a tuning item by adding measured mass and a firmer rear reference compared with many factory plastic parts, which can change rear stability during acceleration and over rough terrain. Fit it as part of a balanced upgrade plan with suspension and motor adjustments, remembering that changes to sprung or unsprung mass influence handling.
Fitting is intended to be straightforward for hobby builders: line the underguard up with the Hornet EVO (58742) rear mounting points and secure with the existing fasteners where possible. No specialist tools are normally required, and you should recheck fastener tightness after initial runs.
