Rally Pedigree Styled for Scale Modelling

The Mitsubishi Lancer name is closely linked to rally success, and the Tamiya 58421 RC Mitsubishi Racing Lancer DF-01 Kit reproduces that rally style at 1/10 scale. It is intended for fans who want an authentic-looking model to build and refine.

Overview of the DF-01 Platform

The DF-01 chassis delivers a dependable shaft-driven 4WD setup that keeps power distribution even and stable. This layout supports consistent handling and helps the car cope with changes in grip between surfaces.

Suspension Setup and Range

The adjustable suspension offers good stroke to tackle both road and rough sections. CVA Damper Super Mini units on the front and rear enhance control, and the choice of two rear arms lets you vary the wheelbase from 251mm to 257mm for different body fits.

Gear Choices for Setup Work

Supplied spur gears and pinions allow four gear ratios, enabling straightforward tuning of acceleration versus top speed. These options let you match drive characteristics to your preferred motor and driving environment.

The Tamiya 58421 RC Mitsubishi Racing Lancer DF-01 Kit suits modellers who value a tuneable rally chassis with proven mechanical layout and room for upgrades.

No, the kit is a build-up model. It includes motor and ESC but you must provide radio gear, receiver, battery and a transmitter to get it running.
Adjust ride height, shock oil and wheelbase to change balance. Small increments in damping or spring rate can have a big effect on understeer or oversteer tendencies.
Tamiya parts are widely available, and common spares like arms, gears and shocks can be ordered from hobby retailers to keep the car running after wear or impact damage.
