The Kyosho 1/10 Scale Tomahawk 2WD Electric Remote Control Racing Buggy Kit revives a racing legend with modern engineering and vintage styling. Based on the iconic Scorpion chassis, this kit features a double-deck layout, red anodised oil shocks, and a pre-cut polycarbonate body that mirrors the original Tomahawk. Its lightweight design and side-mounted battery setup optimise weight distribution for enhanced circuit performance.
Forged suspension arms, a diecast aluminium gearbox, and high-efficiency 48-pitch gears ensure durability and smooth power delivery. The slipper clutch protects the drivetrain under rough conditions, while the adjustable wheelbase and compatibility with Scorpion upgrades allow for custom tuning. With pre-assembled gearbox and oil shocks, the kit offers a rewarding build experience for intermediate and advanced hobbyists.

Based on the solid foundation of the Scorpion, the Tomahawk was modified and launched as a pure racing vehicle. On its release, the Tomahawk swept challengers away from Japan and around the world to create a legend that is still remembered by many R/C racers today. In response to many requests from R/C fans, Kyosho is proud to add the Tomahawk as the 3rd Immortal model in the Vintage Series. Incorporating metal parts from the 2014 Scorpion such as the 6061T6 aluminum main frame chassis, forged suspension arms, 2-piece aluminum diecast gearbox with built-in diff gears, the Tomahawk will always be a pure racing machine with its characteristic Spartan double deck. The new Tomahawk is not simply a reproduction of the original machine. Each key component has updated with modern R/C racing technology and power source to product superior circuit performance. Many will appreciate its nostalgic style, but the elimination of radio box to reduce weight and side mounting of the battery for optimal weight distribution sharpens the edge of the Tomahawk for the pure enjoyment of true racing performance.
