## Description

RC Radio Control Car 1/10 Electric Wild Willy 2 Jeep Kit

## Features

- Tamiya branded model assembly radio control kit car.
- Required to complete: two-channel radio control unit, steering servo, 7.2 volt battery & battery charger, and Tamiya TS Paint. The body comes in a military green colour but can be painted for a better or different colour finish.
- The Wild Willy 2 is a reproduction of the popular original Wild Willy from the mid 80s. The new Wild Willy has an all new chassis and larger tyres, allowing it to tread over rough terrain. Of course, the Wild Willy's trademark is the animated wheelie capability thanks to an all new wheelie bar.
- The WR-02 chassis features a heavy-duty monocoque which has side frames to increase rigidity. R/C unit, motor, and battery pack are positioned along the centreline of the chassis and the motor's power is delivered to the rear wheels via a fully-enclosed gearbox equipped with a differential. A wheelie bar is fitted to enable exciting, wheels in the air driving action. Four-wheel double wishbone suspension and two-piece steering tie-rod offer smooth steering response. Tyres/wheels and the gearbox/motor come pre-assembled for ease of assembly, and a driver figure is also included.
- Length: 345 mm. Width: 270 mm. Height: 270 mm. Wheelbase: 170 mm.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great kit BUT MORE STUFF NEED TO GET IT GOING
*by H***S on 27 December 2015*

This is a great product but purchasers should be aware of the following:1. It comes in kit form and needs a considerable amount of building. It's fiddly in places with (very) small parts. It isn't especially hard to do build if you're that way inclined but it requires a certain degree of skill and you'll need to follow the instructions carefully. It takes more than several hours work to complete. Kids of less than probably 12 or so will need adult supervision to complete the build3. MORE IMPORTANTLY (if you haven't already got them) THIS KIT NEEDS ADDITIONAL ITEMS TO GET WORKING:> 2 channel Radio control unit> A servo> 7.2v Ni Cad battery + charger> Plastic cement> Thread lock (medium)> Paint (for the driver)All of this is readily available and fairly straightforward purchases from online radio controlled equipment stores and adds a minimum of £60/65 to the costs

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant little model for Tamiya fans
*by M***S on 5 February 2019*

Great retro car. Partner loved building and painting this up. Delivery was brilliant and came well packaged to protect the contents.
