Let It All Begin With This 1 Buggy
Based on
1-seater buggies seen tearing-up dirt tracks across the U.S. in the
80's, the Grasshopper first made its appearance in R/C stores in 1984.
Boasting easy assembly and easy control, the lightweight Grasshopper
proved an instant hit as the perfect entry level R/C kit. Also
compatible with a whole range of option parts such as oil dampers, 540
motor and ball bearings, the Grasshopper was an entry level car that
could keep up with the owners driving experience. Packed with all the
fantastic features of the original kit, this fun 2WD buggy is a blast on
both off-road and on-road tracks. Whether it was your first or will be
your first, the Grasshopper guarantees to please.
Simple But Tough 2WD Chassis
The perfect
combination of simple assembly and tough exterior is what made the
Grasshopper so special. Durable plastic body is fastened to bathtub
resin monocoque chassis by screws, creating a solid frame that can
absorb any type of rough handling. Off-road tracks can be tackled with
ease thanks to coil spring dampers, and independent swing axle front and
rigid axle rear suspension. Diff loaded sealed gearbox keeps out the
dirt and stones for smooth driving and cornering. Paddle style rear
tires and grooved front tires combine with 3-piece assembly type wheels
for excellent grip performance on dirt tracks. Half-body driver figure
adds that finishing touch to a fun off-road R/C car.
