[18716] Geo Glider (FM-A Chassis)

[The sharp form that changed the image of the FM-A machine won the Tamiya Award]

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

The Geo Glider is a machine that won the Tamiya Award at the "Mini 4WD Design Contest 2018".

The focus is on the form that overturns the impression of the front-heavy FM-A machine.

The sharp silhouette reminiscent of a fighter jet and the three-dimensional intersection with the X-shaped cowl that covers the cockpit are attractive.

The body is made of ABS resin with sufficient strength.

The pearl white coloring further enhances the image of an aerodynamic machine that runs smoothly on the ground and feels stable when jumping.

In addition, the purple and light green lines that emphasize the X-shaped body style and the machine name logo are available as stickers.

[Adopts FM-A chassis with front motor layout]

The chassis is an FM-A with a front motor layout that incorporates an aero 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.

The front lower part is equipped with a skid bar made of low-friction resin as standard, and the four rollers are also made of low-friction resin.

The rear roller is 8 mm thick for increased stability.

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

The aero side stays, inspired by the cross-sectional shape of an airplane wing, can be used to attach various parts.

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

In addition, barrel tires are set on the large-diameter narrow V-spoke purple wheels.

4.2:1 speed gear and motor included.
