Now the winter-season is getting hot: with the SHARK-18 Buggy LRP presents its first RC Car.
LRP, so far known as a leading manufacturer in speed controllers and accessories, used all it’s experience from many years of RC product design to release a all new 1/18 size car, the LRP SHARK – 18 !
The SHARK-18 Buggy is a true 1/18 scale Off-Road racer. Following its bigger examples, the powerful 1/8 scale buggies, the Shark 18 is the new benchmark in the micro car scene:
Extremely fast, precise and aggressive. At home in the living room, the office, the backyard, at the skate park or on the race track – everywhere is a good hunting ground for the LRP SHARK-18.
The features:
1/18 scale
LRP A.I. Micro Reverse digital speedo (waterproof)
LRP Phaser Sport AM receiver
LRP Micro battery pack and 220V charger
LRP transmitter incl. a charging plug
Full-size steering servo

The LRP SHARK-18 buggy shows his rivals its shark teeth: 4WD-shaftdrive, 4 aluminium oil shocks, aluminium shock towers and an extra rigid chassis in tub design.
While developping the SHARK-18 buggy, our R&D-Team exactly followed the big examples, the 1/8 scale buggies. Main features like 4 wheel drive and the suspension geometry were taken over. It was not only our task to transform the proven details from 1/8 scale to 1/18 scale – the main target was to develop a real 1/18 scale race buggy. Many things like the installation of the electric components, the position of the motor, the suspension or the drive train needed to fulfill the requirements for the smaller scale.
At the end of the R&D time, the LRP SHARK-18 RTR is a micro buggy with the handling of a real 1/8 scale Buggy!
„Blue is Better“ means again high graded electric components: LRP included the special Micro speedo “A.I. Micro Reverse”. This speedo is state-of-the-art: it features a Fail Safe System to protect against interferences as well as the legendary LRP A.I. Automatic function for an automatic set up of the speed control to the transmitter. Just plug in and drive – every time with the perfect setup for maximum driving fun.
The LRP Phaser Sport AM receiver provides precise digital function for guaranteed driving fun. Together with all the other RTR kit equipment like the micro battery pack, the 220V charger and the 8x AA-batteries for the transmitter, LRP provides a true RTR kit which is ready to race right out of the package.
