Tamiya 1/10 Hotshot 4x4 Off-Road Buggy Kit

Description:

When it debuted in 1985, the Hotshot made an immediate impact as Tamiya’s first shaft-driven 4WD R/C buggy, boasting an aggressive body style and a low center of gravity. Its distinctive 3-piece chassis incorporated several forward-thinking features for its time, including front and rear mono-shock oil dampers, a 4-wheel double wishbone suspension with stabilizers, and fully enclosed gearboxes equipped with thrust ball bearings and differential gears. A wide selection of dedicated option parts soon followed, cementing the Hotshot as a dream machine for young enthusiasts of the era. After years of anticipation, Tamiya has revived this iconic model so fans can relive the excitement of their early R/C experiences.

For the re-release, Tamiya updated many components to modern standards while preserving the spirit and appearance of the original. The front and rear double wishbone suspension and adjustable mono-shock dampers remain, but the drivetrain now uses modern dog bone-style propeller shafts for improved durability. The oil dampers have also been updated to contemporary diaphragm-type units. Additionally, since today’s ESCs eliminate the need for the original rear aluminum heat sink, a dummy version is included to maintain the Hotshot’s classic silhouette. Take this refreshed Hotshot for a run and compare it with modern R/C buggies to truly appreciate how far the hobby has evolved over the decades.

Prevents me from adjusting the air vent up or down
It's true that it doesn't block the air flow. I had to put it on the left passenger side vent to retain the ability to point the driver's air vents where I want. With it over there, I have to turn my head too far to the right when I'm driving to see my phone, and the passenger can't adjust the vent up or down. Also, phone can't tilt as far left and right as other ones. Good price, unique design, easy to install, feels sturdy, holds iPhone SE fine, and doesn't block my view of the entertainment system.

BETTER THAN A CUP HOLDER
I had a cup-holder mount and it was always falling apart. No matter how it was turned, to unfasten my phone I had to move the spring part of the holder in the same direction that removes the entire clip from the stem of the mount. Of course, I eventually lost the clip. What a bad idea. And, in a 4-Runner, on my cupholder, MAPS sometines got lost and I would have to hold my phone up to the windshield for a minute to get back MAPS back on track. Also not a good Idea. We're not supposed to be handeling a phone and driving so holding my phone up to the windshield is kinda like flagging down a cop. (The 4-Runner has hand-free phone service, as well as some kind of circuitious navigation but it's always lost.) . So, for about $9 on sale, I though I would try one of these LISEN mounts. It works great ! Really. Easy to attach securely but scratchlessly it to my center AC/heat vent and It is infantly moveable. Swing the arm 360 degrees, in and out, phone up or saideways, and tilt the phone to me or the Boss. If I get bored, I can relocate it anywhere along the center vents, or even over to my side vent if I have nothing better to do.. It is sturdy, quiet, easy to clamp in my S21, and release is simplye by pushing the button on the back. Sooo much better that my previous mount, for a third of the price. It might be the best $9 you ever spent. And still worthwhile,if you have to shell out the $18. (But I always try to avoid paying full price for anything). Enjoy !

Usable but average, with only basic build quality and stability.
This in-car phone mount is fairly average overall. It’s easy to install and works for basic navigation needs, but the build quality isn’t particularly impressive. The materials feel a bit ordinary, and stability can be an issue on rough roads, with some looseness over time. It’s usable, but not outstanding.

WORTH IT!!
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Fresh
After debating for a few weeks, I finally bought this interior cleaner hoping it would be better than the other stuff I had been using. I just got a new vehicle and really want to keep it detailed and nice. This stuff is FANTASTIC!! It made the whole cleaning process easier. I am a mom to 6 kids and between everyday school trips and busy sports seasons, the dirt and wear can add up QUICK. I needed something worth the money and to make my cleaning process easier and worth my time in this very busy season of life. It leaves a nice finish without any streaks or oily appearance. It dried in a timely manner and my Suburban looks and smells wonderful.

Nice Interior Cleaner / No Residue and No Shine
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Fresh
Most people knock Chemical Guys and it appears a rather basic , not boutique, car care line. This is one hit in the line and actually comes in at least three versions based upon the scent left after use. This one is a baby powder scent that does not linger too long nor to heavy. The cleaning power is light with no streaks. It dries quickly and does not appear to leave any markings. A light spritz on doors, dash, and interior parts and a quick wipe with MF. You could use a dampen towel also. It leaves behind no shine or dressing afterwards which is wonderful for those wanting a fresh like new appearance without the shine or goopy sticky mess.
