Introducing the Rookie Off-Road RO1.0, a reasonably priced entry-level racing buggy that runs through corners while emitting dust and clears jumps with flying colors!

A 2WD racing buggy with an easy-to-assemble parts structure based on an integrated resin main chassis that is flexible and resistant to crashes. It is also recommended for those who are trying out an off-road car for the first time, and its high running performance allows it to handle active driving such as jumping. Since the basic structure is the same as a race-specific machine, it can be adapted to various driving conditions by changing settings, even when driving on off-road circuits.

The suspension and drive system parts have the same design as the top model, so by replacing them with lightweight carbon parts or high-precision aluminum parts, you can create a high-end machine. Although it is a beginner-friendly model that emphasizes stability, it is also attractive for its expandability that can accommodate expert-level driving.
