It was an enhanced follow up release to the original Grasshopper kit. This re-release (2017) kit features a number of updates while keeping largely faithful to the original model. Its streamlined construction process makes this kit perfect for less experienced users and R\/C veterans alike, while separately sold option parts can be used to enhance the model. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Chassis\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eA rugged ABS resin chassis is more than up to the stresses of off-road driving, and features lightweight durable plastic suspension arms, gearboxes and so on - the result is a lightweight and durable unit.
