Tamiya 18716 Geo Glider FM-A Chassis Mini 4WD  [18716]

Overview of the Geo Glider Mini 4WD

The Geo Glider brings a jet-like silhouette to the Mini 4WD range, combining striking looks with race-focused lines. It gained recognition with the TAMIYA AWARD at the 2018 Mini 4WD Design Contest for its creative bodywork.

Visual Notes and Body Shape

Its streamlined shell is built around an X-shaped cowl in pearl white that encourages clean airflow. The kit pairs purple large-diameter V-spoke wheels with arched tyres to deliver a cohesive, performance-minded aesthetic.

FM-A Chassis Features and Handling

The FM-A chassis provides a front motor configuration that helps balance the car for faster laps. The olive gray chassis panels offer a contemporary look and contribute to predictable handling on a variety of circuits.

Customisation and Race Prep

The Geo Glider is easy to personalise with upgraded motors, special tyre sets, and refined gear ratios. Racers can adapt the FM-A platform for improved cornering, traction, and straight-line pace.

For model builders who value both looks and tunability, the Geo Glider offers a platform that responds well to common Mini 4WD upgrades and setup changes.
