[The sharp form that changed the image of the FM-A machine won the Tamiya Award]
This is a plastic model assembly kit of a high-performance racer that uses a shaft drive four-wheel drive. Geo Glider is a machine that won the Tamiya Award of the "Mini 4WD Design Contest 2018". The focus is on the form that overturns the impression of a front-heavy FM-A machine.
The sharp silhouette reminiscent of a fighter plane and the crossover with the X-shaped cowl that covers the cockpit are attractive.
The body is made of ABS resin with sufficient strength. The pearl white coloring enhances the image of an aerodynamic machine that runs smoothly on the ground and gives you a sense of stability when jumping.
In addition, purple and light green lines that emphasize the X-type body style and machine name logos are available as stickers.
[Adopts FM-A chassis with front motor layout]
The chassis adopts FM-A with a front motor layout that incorporates aero design.
The center of gravity is located closer to the front of the body, so it is possible to run with a sense of stability even on courses with many ups and downs.
In addition to the standard low-friction resin skid bar at the bottom of the front, the four rollers are also made of low-friction resin.
In particular, the rear roller is an 8mm thick type that enhances stability.
In addition, the motor can be easily replaced from the bottom of the chassis, allowing speedy setting changes.
Various parts can be attached to the aero side stay, which is inspired by the cross-sectional shape of an airplane wing.
The chassis body is made of olive gray ABS resin, and the A parts such as the under panel and skid bar are made of black low-friction resin.
In addition, barrel tires are set on purple large-diameter narrow V-spoke wheels. 4.2:1 speed gear with motor.
