Classic DTM Replica Built for Setup and Speed

The Tamiya 43520 Nitro Mercedes-Benz C-Class DTM 2004 blends authentic styling with a chassis built for precise tuning and stable high speed driving. This 1/10 scale RTR delivers nitro propulsion and a platform that rewards setup time.

Iconic Race Styling

This model reproduces the AMG Mercedes C-Class DTM 2004 appearance, featuring the metallic silver No. 8 and period-correct AMG markings. The pre-painted shell keeps the look sharp while tolerating typical track contact.

Chassis Dynamics and Power

The TNS chassis uses an aluminium lower deck combined with a sturdy plastic upper deck for a predictable balance. Power is supplied by the OS FS-12SW engine with a recoil starter and dual needle carb. Independent double wishbones and oil shocks manage handling for on-road touring conditions.

Control and Upgrade Potential

Shaft-driven 4WD and sealed diffs create steady traction for corner exits, and the car accepts TG10-Mk.1 option parts for those seeking upgraded geometry or performance parts. The pre-finished body makes it straightforward to hit the circuit quickly.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10
  • Engine: OS FS-12SW with dual needle carburetor
  • Chassis: TNS with aluminum lower deck
  • Drive: 4WD shaft-driven
  • Suspension: 4-wheel independent double wishbone
  • Body: Pre-painted polycarbonate

This Tamiya 43520 kit suits drivers who prefer a nitro touring car with room for setup tweaks and aftermarket option parts to refine handling.

It is best suited to intermediate to experienced drivers who can tune carburetion and suspension. Newcomers will learn a lot but should expect a learning curve with nitro setups.
After running, use afterrun oil to protect internal parts, keep the air filter clean, and store the model in a dry place. Routine glow plug checks and needle adjustments help reliability.
Common wear items like tyres, diffs and body panels are widely available, and many option parts are compatible due to the TG10-Mk.1 support.
The car prefers smooth, well-prepared surfaces such as asphalt or sealed parking lot circuits. Rough terrain will shorten component life and reduce handling precision.
