Tamiya 18617 Neo Falcon Mini 4WD Kit 1/32 Aero Coupe  [18617]

Inside the Neo Falcon build

The Tamiya 18617 Neo Falcon stands out in the Mini 4WD line-up with a futuristic, low-slung shell and distinct racing flair. Its form emphasizes speed and agility while nodding to classic model roots.

Body shape and inspiration

The bodywork carries a race-bred silhouette with keen edges and flowing surfaces, giving the car a purposeful stance and aiding visual downforce cues on track.

Performance traits of the MS chassis

The MS chassis provides a stable core thanks to a three-piece construction and mid motor layout, which keeps mass central and helps the car stay composed through bends.

Custom setup and parts choices

Plenty of upgrade paths are available so you can tailor performance:

• Motors: Swap in higher torque or higher RPM motors depending on track demands.
• Tires: Choose low-profile or grippy slicks to match surface and cornering behaviour.
• Gears: Change gear ratios to favour top speed or acceleration as needed.
• Dampers: Use dampers to steady the chassis across jumps and fast transitions.

Assembly guidance for builders

The snap-fit construction means no cement, and parts are designed for straightforward assembly so both newcomers and seasoned builders can get on the track quickly.

With a strong visual identity and space for tuning, the Neo Falcon is a flexible choice for club racers and hobbyists looking to customise their Mini 4WD.
