Classic Looks, Modern Running Gear

The Tamiya 57929 - 1/10 Blitzer Beetle (2011) XB RTR celebrates the original silhouette while using contemporary components. This RTR kit gives a faithful Beetle profile with straightforward mechanical layout for everyday fun.

Nostalgic Shell with Durable Construction

The Beetle-style body keeps the charm of the early releases but is formed from resilient polycarbonate to resist knocks. Panel fit and paint options make it easy to personalise the visual style.

Off-Road Chassis Focus

Built around a practical 2WD off-road chassis, the model includes oil-filled dampers for controlled wheel travel and a torque-focused electric motor for good low-end pull. The chassis is light and forgiving for mixed-surface running.

Good Entry Point for New Pilots

With its ready-to-run format the Blitzer Beetle is sensible for those just getting into RC, while experienced hobbyists will find it simple to upgrade with better electronics or tuned suspension parts.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10
  • Drive Type: 2WD
  • Motor: Electric
  • Body Material: Polycarbonate
  • Chassis Type: Off-Road Buggy

The Tamiya 57929 Blitzer Beetle balances retro styling and practical mechanics, making it a solid pick for model fans who value both looks and easy maintenance.

The chassis and oil shocks can cope with small jumps, but avoid big airtime without reinforced parts and tuned damping.
Yes, many owners upgrade to brushless motors and compatible ESCs for more speed, but wiring, gearing, and battery choice should be matched carefully.
Some trimming and hole placement are needed for radio gear and wheel clearance, but the shell is designed for straightforward installation.
Regular checks of shocks, drive components, and wheel hexes will keep running smooth; replace worn tyres and stay on top of battery care.
