Thundering around off-road stadiums with immense tires, Monster Trucks have fascinated the world for years. Tamiya is proud to present its radio-controlled monster truck assembly kit - the Twin Detonator. In order to generate power worthy of its dynamic image, the chassis has been equipped with a motor in both the front and the rear. With the battery located in the middle of the chassis, the Twin Detonator is perfectly balanced for rough riding. The centrally positioned servo ensures the equal alignment of the steering tie rods, improving control. The four-wheel double wishbone suspension offers flexible handling over all road conditions. The chassis adopts a sturdy gear-train, firmly holding the gearboxes on both sides with a semi-monocoque frame. This arrangement guarantees stability on even the toughest of terrain, and allows easy access and maintenance of gearbox without disassembly. To get your Twin Detonator down and dirty, you will need the eHobbies electric starter pack, a 2-channel radio control system with 2 servos, and tamiya lexan spray paint (see required components). To get even more uninterrupted run-time in the dirt, you can upgrade to one of the higher rated battery packs found in the optional components section below.
