RC Car Reviews – Tamiya Hornet

RC Car Reviews check outs the Tamiya Hornet!

The Tamiya Hornet is perfect for those that used to have one, those that have always wanted one and for those that want a revolutionary buggy that has earned its place in RC history.

A legendary RC buggy when released in the 80’s, the Tamiya Hornet was seen as the new benchmark for off road RC buggies. It seems that this little buggy is still holding its own with a recent re-release back on to the shelves of hobby and department stores around the world.

The Tamiya Hornet is the perfect electric RC buggy for anyone looking to get into the sport or those looking for another race breed buggy to take to the track. It really is hard to fault the Hornet and we have to say it did bring a tear to our eye when we first got wind that Tamiya was going to bring it back!

Thank you Tamiya, we have supported your decision with multiple Hornets in our team line up.

Here is our Pros and Cons of the legendary Tamiya Hornet

  • Pros
  1. Super solid chassis and can take a beating
  2. Spares are available everywhere if you ever need them
  3. Heaps of hop up (go faster) parts
  4. Awesome value for money – check them out here at Amazon
  5. Easy to modify for personal tastes
  6. Can handle all types of terrain easily
  • Cons
  1. Assembly is required
  2. Does not come with radio unit
