Vintage Grasshopper With a Bright Candy Green Finish

The Tamiya 47348 Grasshopper Candy Green Edition revives a classic kit that taught many hobbyists the basics of RC assembly. Its Candy Green pre-painted ABS body is eye-catching on the trail and cuts down on build time with no need for painting work.

Simple Build That Teaches Fundamentals

This model is well suited to those starting out, with a straightforward assembly that introduces common RC techniques. The bathtub chassis is tough and the included ESC helps new builders get the buggy running quickly and reliably.

Stable Performance Across Rough Tracks

Rear-wheel drive, an independent swing axle up front and a rigid rear axle combine with friction dampers to handle uneven surfaces. The sealed gearbox with a gear differential delivers consistent drive, while the paddle rear tyres and grooved fronts help grip loose dirt.

Room To Modify As You Learn

The supplied 380-type motor is fine for learning and casual running, and the chassis design allows upgrading to a Type 540 motor for more speed. That adaptability makes the Grasshopper a long-lived kit for evolving skill levels.

Tamiya 47348 Grasshopper Candy Green Edition makes a practical and enjoyable first kit, while the option to upgrade keeps it relevant for hobbyists wanting to tune performance.

Yes. The parts are straightforward and the instructions are clear, making it a good practical introduction to kit building and basic maintenance.
Common spares include suspension links, tyres and pinions. Having basic replacement parts on hand speeds up repairs after off-road use.
The paddle-style rear tyres and grooved front tyres are aimed at loose surfaces and work well on dirt and short grass. For mud or deep grass you may want a different tyre compound or tread.
