Mini Muscle Car Built on a Proven Chassis

The Tamiya 57703 - 1/10 XB Ford Mustang Cobra R recreates the muscle car silhouette in 1/10 scale while relying on established RC architecture for reliable performance. It is a practical model for enthusiasts who enjoy both display and regular driving.

Drive and Geartrain Overview

Powered by a shaft-driven full-time 4WD system, the TL-01 chassis routes torque through sealed front and rear gearboxes to maintain consistent traction. Differential gears are fitted to improve cornering balance and protect driveline parts under load.

Suspension Setup for Smooth Control

Independent double wishbones at each corner and four friction dampers keep handling stable across typical club surfaces. The arrangement gives predictable responses under braking and turning, which helps when learning setup adjustments.

Scale-Accurate Body and Styling Touches

The printed polycarbonate body captures the Cobra R proportions and is robust enough for routine use. Chrome five-spoke wheels with radial tyres provide a factory-correct look and reliable grip on tarmac and smooth concrete.

Compact, true to the source design, and mechanically sound, the Tamiya 57703 - 1/10 XB Ford Mustang Cobra R is suitable for owners who want classic looks with straightforward upkeep.

Yes, when fitted with a suitable 540 motor and matching speed controller the car performs well on club circuits; keep gearing sensible to protect the plastic gearbox internals.
A 2-channel pistol radio is included, but you will still need to supply batteries for the transmitter, plus a compatible 7.2V battery pack for the car if you do not already own one.
The radial tyres are aimed at smooth surfaces like asphalt and concrete; for loose or muddy ground you would look to tyre upgrades designed for those conditions.
Regular checks of gearbox grease, drive shafts and wheel nuts will keep the car reliable; clean the chassis after dusty runs and inspect friction dampers for wear.
