Description
A Japan Cup 2026 commemorative edition of the Hyper-Dash 3, the high-revving single-shaft motor Tamiya pitches as the balance between speed and service life, which is what makes it a usable all-round choice rather than a qualifying-only motor. The commemorative build pairs a red end bell with a black JAPAN CUP 2026 label and ships on matching event backing card; the motor itself is mechanically the same as the standard 15477.
Released 20 June 2026 alongside the rest of the Japan Cup 2026 commemorative line-up. As a speed-type motor it rewards layouts with long straights and sustained full-throttle sections, and asks for more braking than a tuned motor does on the jumps and waves of the Upbeat Maelstrom Circuit 2026.
