All-Terrain Basher: Tamiya 43503 Wild Commando

The Tamiya 43503 Wild Commando is a 1/8 scale monster truck made for aggressive off-road play. Built on the tough TGM-02 chassis, it combines a military look with a setup intended to handle rough landings and bumpy runs.

Strong Heart and Frame

At its core is a .18 class glow engine that supplies brisk acceleration for jumps and sprints. The duralumin deck strengthens the frame against impact, and the set of eight oil dampers keeps wheel travel controlled over rough ground.

Bold Dimensions

With a length of 560mm and width of 425mm, the Wild Commando stands out on any track. Height is 250mm and the wheelbase measures 360mm, giving it a stable platform for quick direction changes and high speed corners.

Practical Radio Control

The supplied transmitter allows both forward and reverse drive, making it easy to recover from tricky spots. The steering and throttle response are tuned for predictable handling during bashes.

Yes, the TGM-02 layout and common Tamiya components make fitting hop-ups and stronger parts straightforward for experienced builders.
Large-diameter, multi-pin tyres or all-terrain patterns work well to balance traction on dirt, grass and gravel surfaces.
Regular inspection of mounting points and using protective skid plates or guards will help shield the duralumin deck and suspension from repeated impacts.
Adjusting damper oil level and spring rate can significantly improve handling for different tracks and driving styles, so tune them to match your local terrain.
