[18653] Hexagonite (MA Chassis)

[A massive hexagonal machine that won the Tamiya Award]

This is a plastic model assembly kit of a four-wheel drive racer that is fun to race with its high-performance running.

The Hexagonite is a machine that won the Tamiya Award in the "Mini 4WD Design Contest 2018".

It is an image of a four-wheel drive (SUV) that can powerfully push forward on any road.

The yellow-green ABS resin body features a tough form with a hexagonal motif, as the name Hexagonite suggests.

In addition, hexagonal designs are scattered on the front grille, lamps, air intakes, etc.

White stripes and the machine name logo are prepared as stickers.

The chassis is also MA. The main body is made of light gray ABS resin, and the A parts are made of low-friction resin and are light green.

The silver five-spoke wheels are set with super hard small-diameter low-height tires.

[MA chassis that pursues driving efficiency]

"MA" is an abbreviation for Midship AERO.

The "MS chassis" has a midship layout with a double shaft motor mounted in the center of the body, and the "AR chassis" is designed with particular attention to airflow (aero) while driving.

The "MA chassis" combines the excellent features of each into one chassis.

Of course, by utilizing the racing know-how accumulated so far, a gear ratio of 3.5:1 is adopted, and six low-friction resin rollers and a rear skid bar are also standard equipment, thoroughly refining the driving performance.

In addition, the adoption of an integrated monocoque structure further improves ease of assembly and maintenance, making it a chassis that can be used by a wide range of racers from beginners to veteran racers, and from street corner races on small courses to official competitions on large special 5-lane circuits.
