Kyosho Legendary Series Beetle 2WD 1:10 Kit

The Kyosho Legendary Series Beetle 2WD 1:10 Kit (K.30614D) revives an icon of 1980s electric buggy racing, pairing authentic Beetle style with modern reliability. Built on the advanced Scorpion 2014 ladder-frame 2WD chassis, it blends classic handling with upgraded materials and components for confident off-road performance and an enjoyable build.

With extensive aluminium hardware, full ball bearings and a tunable drivetrain including a slipper clutch, the Beetle is engineered for durability and smooth control. Key assemblies come pre-built to streamline the process, and the pre-cut clear polycarbonate body with decals makes it easy to finish to your taste.
