Released in 1986, the Blackfoot is a rear-wheel-drive R/C monster truck made by Tamiya. It utilizes the ORV-MT chassis, which is a modified ORV chassis that was released in 1983 with the release of Subaru Brat R/C car.
The ORV-MT chassis has the plastic spaceframe chassis frame, with the 540-size motor being mounted on the rear gearbox with transfers power to the rear wheels. It was support by the front, strengthen lower arm suspensions and rear trailing arm suspensions, with four independent coilover dampers attached.
Steering system has been strengthen to handle the forces incurs with the large, lug-pattern monster truck tires. The bathtub box has the cover that protects the mechanical speed controller and its servo from dirts and tiny rocks.
The Blackfoot was later re-released in 2016, with the same refinements that can be found in the re-release of the Monster Beetle R/C truck. (Which was released a year prior.)
