Introduction

It was an enhanced follow up release to the original Grasshopper kit. This re-release (2017) kit features a number of updates while keeping largely faithful to the original model. Its streamlined construction process makes this kit perfect for less experienced users and R/C veterans alike, while separately sold option parts can be used to enhance the model.

About The Chassis

A rugged ABS resin chassis is more than up to the stresses of off-road driving, and features lightweight durable plastic suspension arms, gearboxes and so on - the result is a lightweight and durable unit. Front swing axle and rear rolling rigid suspension combine for a responsive drive, while a fully enclosed gearbox is integrated with the rear axle and has a built-in differential gear to aid smooth cornering. One-piece wheels are paired with front grooved and rear spike tires for solid performance.

  • The Grasshopper II Body Is Molded In Durable White Polystyrene Resin
  • Includes A Driver Figure For Attachment To The Body
  • Features A Rugged ABS Resin Bathtub Chassis
  • Front Swing Axle And Rear Rolling Rigid Suspension Setups
  • Front Ribbed Tires Give Great Straight-Line Grip, Rear Spike Tires Provide Powerful Drive
