The Bigwig is back!
This is a 2017 version of the shaft-driven 4WD buggy that was released to commemorate 10 years of Tamiya R/C models back in 1986. It features several updates while keeping largely to the classic design of the original. The slimline body is that penned for the 1986 Bigwig by famed Japanese designer Takuya Yura, still a classic today, and which possesses advanced aerodynamics thanks to his encyclopedic design knowledge. Updated markings retain the flavour of the original Bigwig and include the Mooncraft logo of Yura's design company.
Body design: Takuya Yura
Takuya Yura is a highly regarded Japanese designer, active in many fields and known particularly for his racing car designs. He is President of the Mooncraft company.
King of the Off-Road
The extremely stable shaft-driven 4WD drive train has excellent efficiency thanks to full ball bearings, while differential gears ensure cornering is smooth.
4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension employs A-shaped front and H-shaped rear arms for excellent durability, with CVA oil dampers for high-quality suspension stroke. Dish wheels are not just aesthetically pleasing, but also practical on the off-road surfaces the Bigwig (2017) calls home; they are paired with grippy oval bock tires. The rack and pinion steering setup remains unique to the Bigwig among Tamiya R/C cars.

Our Philosophy
Here at Techtonic Hobbies, we believe that hobbies are a fantastic way for kids to take a break from screen time and instead engage in hands-on activities that can teach them practical skills.

Epic shop! found an epic set of wheels and tires for my TRX-4. Highly recommend.
Techtonic Hobbies is the store we needed on the coast. Good range and provides a great service.
I'm getting back into RC cars after a 10+ year hiatus. Things have changed alot! I did some research online, then went and visited the guys at Techtonic and learnt so much more than I could have expected (these guys know their stuff!). They sorted me out with everything I needed, and at a good price. I highly recommend and thank them for all their help and advise.
The boys helped me countless times with the build of my rc drift car. Provided me with priceless knowledge and expertise, all the parts I needed and were so friendly in the process. Great shop, staff and experience at techtonic hobbies!
Being a beginner scale modeller; I found Luca was extremely helpful with tips, recommendations and great customer service. Shop had an extensive variety of scale model kits and plenty of weathering stuff and things for painting/tools. As I live in Cairns without any hobby stores; I’ll definitely be making stops to Techtonic Hobbies anytime I’m in the Sunshine Coast. Thank you :)
