Reduce Spinouts with Tamiya Gyro Assistance

The Tamiya 54417 Active Steering Assist Unit TGU-01 is a lightweight gyro accessory that improves handling by detecting slides and sending counter steering inputs. It helps maintain stability through corners and on low grip layouts, making it a useful tool for rear-wheel-drive setups such as F104 and RM-01 chassis.

Customise Response with Sensitivity and Range

Settings for counter steering range and sensitivity are adjustable and can be controlled through a compatible 3-channel transmitter. This lets you choose mild correction for practice or stronger intervention for trickier surfaces. Be aware that active gyro systems are not allowed in some competitive classes, including those regulated by major sanctioning bodies in the United States and the Tamiya Championship Series, so its primary use is for hobbyist running.

The Tamiya 54417 Active Steering Assist Unit offers a user-friendly way to gain smoother control of rear-wheel RC cars. With its tuning options it is a handy addition for club tracks and casual sessions.

The kit includes a screwdriver for mounting. No specialised workshop tools are required for standard installation on compatible chassis.
Yes, the gyro introduces corrective steering when it senses a slide. You can reduce or increase that effect using the sensitivity and range controls to suit your driving preference.
It can help on slippery or damp surfaces by applying counter steering to prevent spins, but electronics are not waterproof so avoid heavy water exposure.
