Intro to the Tamiya TT-02B Neo Scorcher for New RC Pilots

The Tamiya 57987 TT-02B Neo Scorcher is aimed at hobbyists learning kit assembly, offering a manageable build with several factory-assembled parts. Based on the TT-02B platform, it delivers a rugged layout that stands up to rough surface running while keeping assembly approachable.

Notable TT-02B Improvements

The TT-02B chassis brings longer suspension arms and CVA shock units for improved off-road control, plus robust buggy bumpers to protect the shell. Cooling ducts for the motor and a guarded receiver compartment add practical protection during hard use.

Modular Build Flow

Key items like the lower deck, gearboxes and motor mount arrive pre-assembled so you attach them to the main chassis and complete the rest at your pace. This modular approach helps newcomers focus on radio setup, trimming and paint work without being rushed.

Powertrain and Ride Characteristics

A shaft-driven 4WD drivetrain ensures even torque delivery to all wheels. The combination of long arms and CVA oil-filled dampers gives predictable suspension movement, and square spike tyres offer traction on loose tracks. The Neo Scorcher body is supplied in clear polycarbonate with sticker decals for easy customisation.

The Tamiya 57987 TT-02B Neo Scorcher First Try Kit is a solid entry option for anyone wanting an accessible kit that still uses authentic off-road hardware and gives room to upgrade as skills grow.

Is special glue or tools needed for the build?

No special glue is required for this kit. Basic hobby tools like screwdrivers, nippers and body reamers are generally sufficient.

Are the tyres suitable for hard packed tracks?

The square spike tyres work well on loose and moderately packed surfaces, though harder surfaces may benefit from different tyre compounds or tread patterns.

Can I upgrade the shocks or chassis later?

Yes, the TT-02B platform accepts a range of upgrade parts like aluminium shock towers and alternative dampers to fine tune handling as you progress.
