Meet the Tamiya 57731 XB Rising Storm DF-02 Buggy

The Tamiya 57731 XB Rising Storm brings a fully assembled 1/10 buggy built on the trusted DF-02 chassis. The model includes a pre-painted body with pre-applied decals so the looks are sorted straight from the box.

Chassis Design for Confident Cornering

A shaft-driven 4WD system delivers even torque to all wheels for consistent traction, while the lower centre of gravity and broader track width improve corner stability on rough surfaces. Sealed front and rear gearboxes house semi-bearing differential gears to keep maintenance low.

Drive Train and Electronics Details

This buggy is fitted with a Type 540 motor and an electronic speed controller for reliable throttle control. The Expec R/C transmitter and receiver are supplied, but battery packs and a charger must be purchased separately. Metal dogbone drive shafts help the model withstand tougher sessions.

The Tamiya 57731 XB Rising Storm is suitable for drivers who want an out-of-the-box off-road machine that is durable enough for regular running yet approachable for newcomers.
