Upgrade Your RC with the Thunder Dragon Shell

The Tamiya 47473 - 1/10 Thunder Dragon Body Parts Set is an unpainted polycarbonate shell aimed at builders who like to personalise their machines. Its light yet tough construction keeps handling sharp while letting you create bespoke paint schemes.

What Comes with the Body

Material: Durable polycarbonate offers a good balance of flexibility and impact resistance for club racing and practice runs.
Customization: The clear, unpainted body is ideal for custom colourwork, masking effects and layered finishes to suit your style.
Included Accessories: Supplied with marking decals for alignment plus masking stickers to simplify painting and produce crisp lines.
Compatibility: Designed with cutlines for the Thunder Dragon (Thunder Shot) and Hornet (Super Storm Dragon) chassis; other mounts may require slight modification.

Painting and Fit Advice

Trial-fit the body before painting to confirm hole positions and clearances around metal parts. Use the masking stickers to protect trim areas and choose a fine hobby knife for accurate trimming along the cutlines.

Can I use the body on a different 1/10 chassis?

The body is optimised for Thunder Dragon (Thunder Shot) and Hornet (Super Storm Dragon) layouts. It can be adapted to other 1/10 cars but expect to make adjustments to cutlines and mounts.

How do I prepare the surface before painting?

Clean the inside with a mild detergent and dry thoroughly. Use the provided masking stickers to define paint zones and avoid handling the exterior surface to keep it oil free.

What tools help get a precise cutline?

A fresh hobby knife or sharp scissors give the cleanest trims. Work slowly along the printed cutline and sand lightly if needed for a smooth edge.

Are mounting screws included?

The set includes marking and masking stickers but does not include chassis screws. Reuse your existing body posts and fasteners or fit suitable countersunk screws for a secure mount.
