MODULAR CONSTRUCTION
Off-road racing often means dirt and grime gathering in the vehicle and interfering with upkeep, to express absolutely nothing of all the work you need to do to wash up afterwards. Our designers took this under consideration when designing the Nitrage and separated the vehicle into 5 major components: Front Gearbox (with steering servo and front suspension system), Center Gearbox (with throttle servo and disc brake), Mechanics Box (with fail safe equipped receiver), motor with Fuel Tank, and back Gearbox (with back suspension and wing). Each of these is separately taken out of the chassis for effortless upkeep and cleaning. All 5 elements sleep on a particular high-strength aluminum deck, a pioneering feature for this class, which was press-molded to ensure structural rigidity.
ALL GEARS FULLY ENCLOSED
Tamiya may be the very first to bring this unique function toward R/C world. Even the connection between the motor clutch bell and the spur gear are totally enclosed and protected from outside disturbance. Consequently, all gears have constant stable lubrication and gear backlash is included by the gearcase. This implies the Nitrage does not need to resort to using any heavy and costly steel gear parts, providing fans more modification freedom.
Moreover, the differential gear in the Nitrage is doubly protected, first by a unique durable case after which by an additional enclosure formed around it by the front and back gearboxes. This setup insulates the differential gear to avoid the suspension system hands and surprise towers from imparting stress on it (this is the issue with many makers&39; truggy differential gears).
EFFECTIVE ENERGY TRANSMISSION
The Nitrage is equipped with the R/C world&39;s first flexible joint drive system, using the spur gear having a short dog bone tissue linkage to the clutch bell, which helps reduce pressure on the motor. A durable lightweight aluminum slipper clutch to enhance transmission efficiency can be included, which can be another first within class.
WIDE-SPAN FRONT SUSPENSION UPPER ARM
Truggies off their manufacturers usually function top we arms for the front suspension system, that provide freedom but miss in structural strength. The Nitrage has especially created top A arms for the front suspension that allow flexible suspension travel without having to sacrifice strength.
WHEELS & TIRES
Colossal off-road tires with inner sponge feature an oval spike tread pattern which ideal for driving on rough surfaces. Tires are mounted on large diameter meal tires.
DISTINCTIVE BACK WING
The big rear wing regarding the Nitrage is a double-split design influenced by those prepared on actual WRC automobiles. Catch pin accessory means the top of area of this wing continues to be flat, contributing to its trendy appearance. Since the wing is connected on framework and not the body shell, it demonstrably distinguishes the Nitrage as a Tamiya product even though the human body is removed.
FOR ADDED CONVENIENCE AND INSTANT ACTION
The Nitrage features universal screw minds for most of its screws, this means all you need is the 2.5mm Hex Wrench to attach and take them off, making upkeep even more fast (keep in mind that there might be several screws that need a 1.5mm or 2mm Hex Wrench). Tamiya Handy Starter and Glow Plug Heater are included for effortless motor begins also for beginners (Handy Starter calls for 7.2V battery power, sold separately). ADSPEC GP 2-channel transmitter and TRU-03 receiver with fail safe device are included.
CHOICE PARTS AVAILABLE SOON!
Both performance-enhancing and aesthetic Option components are in the offing for launch in close future. Keep an eye out especially for announcements of the 2-speed transmission which will enhance top speed to 80km/hr (approx. 50mph) and powerful twin disc brake system.
MAKE NO MISTAKE
Whilst the Nitrage stocks exactly the same 5.2cc motor and wheels/tires with the TNX 5.2R, they truly are only cosmetic similarities. This might be a whole new framework with a unique design which has been designed specifically for off-road racing. Its lower ride-height means a lowered center-of-gravity, offering the Nitrage superb cornering performance. Have a look at the image above to see the distinction on your own (TNX 5.2R in the left, Nitrage 5.2 regarding the right).
