The DT-04 NXGEN is the logical evolution of the TAMIYA Fighter Buggy models and serves as the entry-level buggy for aspiring racers. Since 1996, TAMIYA has set the standard in the entry-level segment and the RC car scene with the Fighter Buggies. The DT-04 is based on the proven foundation of the DT-03 but has been revised in many areas. NXGEN stands for "Next-Generation," representing the latest generation of Fighter 2WD buggies. This model features many innovations both technically and aesthetically: its design is inspired by popular single-seater American racing buggies with 2WD rear-wheel drive. TAMIYA achieves this with pre-colored white plastic parts, eliminating the need for painting. The kit can be assembled in two color variants, and the driver figure with a helmet makes the Fighter a real eye-catcher. Technically, the NXGEN offers a new three-part steering system, oil-filled shock absorbers, new axle carriers, hex wheel mounts at the front and rear, new steering arms, and much more. The model can be built in two different wheelbases (265 mm or 280 mm) simply by flipping the front lower control arms and modifying the steering. A shorter wheelbase makes the model more agile on the racetrack, while a longer wheelbase allows for a smoother ride. Required accessories: remote control with receiver, steering servo, 7.2V NiMH battery pack, charger, and TAMIYA X, XF, or LP paint for the driver figure.
