Retro Hot Shot Reimagined for Trail and Track

Inspired by the 1985 original, the Comical Hot Shot 58685 brings back a beloved silhouette with modern construction. This 1/10 kit features a vivid pre-painted polycarbonate body and decals so you can finish it straight out of the box or personalise the look.

GF-01CB Chassis Built for Consistent Control

The GF-01CB provides a gear-driven, four-wheel drive chassis that prioritises balance and predictable behaviour on mixed surfaces. A centrally located motor and sealed gearboxes reduce wear from dust, and the independent double wishbone suspension paired with CVA oil shocks soaks up bumps and landings.

Driver-Friendly Performance and Stunt Stability

The Comical Hot Shot is designed to deliver playful wheelies while remaining controllable thanks to the rear wheelie bar. Its distinctive two-piece wheels with red and white spokes use ST block bubble tyres to maintain traction whether youre on pavement or light off-road sections.

Assembly varies by experience, but many modellers complete the build in a few afternoons, taking care with gearboxes and suspension setup.
Yes, the ESC supports brushless motors within the suggested turn ranges, but check gearing and power delivery to avoid stressing the drivetrain.
