General info

The Dyna-Hawk features the low-height, open-wheel body design, with the sharp front canopy and the bulged rear fenders. A pair of fins were protruded from the side of the canopy. There's also the air-intakes on the bodyshells that can dissipate the heats from the motor.

It also comes with the plastic front nose guard, which is attached onto the chassis's front bumper. However, it cannot be attached to Super XX Chassis if the chassis's default front nose guard is installed.

All variants were equipped with the large diameter, 3-spoke X Mighty-type wheels paired with arched tires.
