Acme Racing Condor PRO Special Edition Nitro Buggy

Ultimate Special Edition Platform

The Acme Racing Condor PRO Special Edition is the highest-specification version of the Condor series, engineered for drivers who demand maximum performance, strength, and style straight out of the box. By taking the standard Condor PRO and outfitting it with every major optional upgrade, this Special Edition offers not only enhanced durability but also a significant performance boost across acceleration, handling, and top speed.

All premium components - including aluminium suspension components, polished aluminium exhaust, reinforced drivetrain gears, and a fully ball-raced transmission - are factory-installed. Purchasing these upgrades separately would cost considerably more, making this Special Edition exceptional value for a fully loaded, race-ready nitro buggy.

Full Aluminium Upgrade Package

This SE variant includes a comprehensive suite of aluminium components designed to increase structural strength, improve rigidity, and enhance handling precision. These include:

• Aluminium upper and lower wishbones.
• Aluminium knuckle arms.
• Aluminium servo saver.
• Aluminium shock towers.
• Full aluminium oil-filled shocks.
• Extra durable polished aluminium tuned exhaust.

These upgrades minimise chassis flex, reduce component wear, and increase accuracy in suspension movement. The polished aluminium pipe provides a small performance increase by improving exhaust flow, while giving the buggy a premium, race-ready appearance.

Reinforced Drivetrain with Hardened Gearing

To support the increased performance demands, the Condor PRO SE features:

• Hardened steel engine clutch gear.
• Hardened spur gear.
• Upgraded two-speed automatic gearbox with a Delrin first gear and steel pinion gear.

These components dramatically reduce the likelihood of stripping gears under high loads, ensuring consistent power delivery and long-term drivetrain resilience. The two-speed gearbox provides rapid acceleration in first gear before shifting into a higher ratio for increased top speed.

Powerful SH .18 Engine

The buggy is powered by a Taiwan-manufactured SH .18 pull-start engine, renowned for quality, reliability, and ease of use. SH engines feature a simplified single-needle carburettor, making tuning straightforward even for beginners, while still delivering impressive power output.

This engine is paired with:

• A 75 cc fuel tank with splash guard.
• A metal brake disc system.
• A strong steel clutch bell.
• A smooth and efficient fully ball-raced drivetrain.

The result is a power system capable of high top speeds, strong torque, and reliable cold starts.

Advanced 4WD Handling Characteristics

The Condor PRO SE's 4WD shaft-drive layout evenly distirbutes power between the front and rear axles for balanced traction. Working front and rear bevel differentials further enhance cornering performance and prevent wheel binding during tight turns.

Additionally, the Special Edition includes:

• Pre-fitted anti-roll bars, reducing chassis roll and improving stability at speed.
• Adjustable aluminium shocks, allowing drivers to fine-tune damping and ride height for different terrains.
• A strong alloy chassis with countersunk screws for a smooth underside.

The combined effect is consistent, predictable handling across demanding off-road environments.

Electronics and Construction

The buggy arrives fully assembled with pre-installed 2.4 GHz radio system, offering interference-free operation and precise control. The sealed radio box protects the receiver and failsafe electronics from dust and splashes, improving durability during off-road driving.

A pre-painted, pre-cut body shell completes the model, providing both aerodynamic stability and a visually striking appearance that complements the polished aluminium components.
