The Tamiya BBX (TAM58719) is a 1/10 scale off-road RC buggy kit built on the new BB-01 chassis, designed for hobbyists who want to build and run a capable rear-wheel-drive buggy on dirt, gravel, and rough off-road terrain. Note that this kit is sold without an ESC — you'll need to source your own electronic speed controller to complete the build, making it well suited to builders who already have preferred electronics or want to spec the car to a particular power level.
The BB-01 chassis is Tamiya's dedicated platform for this buggy, offering a tub-style frame layout that keeps weight central and low for predictable handling on loose surfaces. As a kit build rather than a ready-to-run model, this radio control buggy rewards the builder with a proper understanding of how the car goes together — ideal for intermediate to experienced hobbyists comfortable with assembly and electronics installation.
