1. Tamiya Avante
When the TAMIYA Avante was first delivered in 1988, it took the RC world and thousands of fans by storm. Almost a quarter of a century later there is another Avante, the Avante 2011 on a modernised chassis. The 2011 version is limited to 333 units in Germany. The original fibreglass decks have been replaced by 2 mm thick carbon fibre decks, which increases stability. The chassis has been optimised for the installation of modern RC components. The rear shock tower is stronger and now also reinforced with carbon fibre. A cross connection between the right and left arm increases stability. The original steering knuckles have been replaced by strong and lightweight aluminium parts for improved performance. Polycarbonate bodywork, rear wing and side panelling are designed for tough off-road use. The packaging of the 2011 model has the same design as the original version. The "Avante" logo and the rear wing decals are unchanged. The other elements of the decal sheet have the modern Tamiya design.

Brushed Motor
A brushed motor is particularly notable for its simple design and resulting ease of maintenance. Additionally, the brushed motor is significantly cheaper to purchase compared to a brushless motor. However, due to the friction of the brushes, wear is high, leading to a limited lifespan and measurable RPM.
On-Road Model – Driving Fun on Paved Surfaces
On-road models are designed for use on paved surfaces. The low ground clearance provides driving stability and allows for high speeds. On-road models are generally unsuitable for off-road use, with the exception of rally vehicles, which can often be used both on the road and in rough terrain.
Touring Car
A touring car refers to a modified passenger car from mass production that is used in motorsport races. Approved vehicles include sedan and hatchback limousines with four doors, equipped with the necessary safety features. Depending on the racing class, two-door vehicles may also be permitted.
Difficulty Level: Advanced
You possess basic knowledge and have the necessary experience and suitable tools to correctly wire your model if needed and safely operate it.
