[18711] Trairong (FM-A Chassis)

[A machine inspired by a hawk, the winner of a Thai design contest]

This is a plastic model assembly kit of a high-performance racer that uses a shaft-driven four-wheel drive.

The Trilong is a machine that was produced based on the winning entry of a mini 4WD design contest held in Thailand.

The name of the car comes from the Thai national flag, "Ton Trilong" (three-color flag). The red ABS resin body has a hawk motif and an aerodynamic design that is conscious of air flow.

It is characterized by two-stage air deflectors, one above the other, installed between the left and right front fenders and the nose.

It is a full-scale model that is reminiscent of a real racing car, with air taken in from the front of the body and flowing to the sides.

In addition, the headlights inspired by the eyes of a hawk and the curved stripes based on the three colors of the Thai flag are available as stickers.

[Uses the FM-A chassis with a front motor layout]

The chassis uses the FM-A with a front motor layout that incorporates an aerodynamic design.

Since the center of gravity is closer to the front of the body, it is possible to run with a sense of stability even on courses with many ups and downs.

In addition to the skid bar made of low-friction resin that is standard equipment on the lower front, the four rollers are also made of low-friction resin.

In particular, the rear roller is 8 mm thick for increased stability.

In addition, the motor can be easily replaced from the bottom of the chassis, allowing for quick setting changes.

Various parts can be attached to the aero side stays, which were inspired by the cross-sectional shape of an airplane wing.

The chassis body is made of ABS resin, while the A parts such as the underpanel and skid bar are made of low-friction resin.

Both are finished in black to resemble a real car.

In addition, low-height tires are set on the A-spoke wheels with textured smoke plating.

3.5:1 super-speed gear, motor included.
