Tamiya 57814 Weider HSV-010 TT-01E Race-Inspired Touring Car  [57814]

Race Style and Chassis: Tamiya 57814 Weider HSV-010 Breakdown

The Tamiya 57814 Weider HSV-010 captures the Super GT silhouette in a compact 1/10 package. Its TT-01E chassis offers a robust baseline that suits both display-oriented builds and performance tweaks for track days.

Why the TT-01E Chassis Works

The TT-01E chassis is recognised for its longevity and forgiving handling, making setup changes predictable. The 4WD shaft drive helps maintain traction under power. Polycarbonate uprights and the fiberglass-reinforced nylon upper deck and motor cover improve strength without adding excess mass.

Body Finish and Lighting Details

The polycarbonate shell is supplied pre-painted in silver with all decals fitted to reproduce the race livery. A compact LED light unit with four LEDs is fitted to add scale lighting for evening runs.

Control Systems and Drive Feel

The model uses the Tamiya Finespec FM 27MHz radio system for basic but reliable control, including trim and servo reverse settings. The TEU-104BK ESC manages throttle inputs smoothly. Friction-type shock absorbers provide adequate damping for road use while the sealed gearbox and bevel differentials reduce maintenance needs.

The Tamiya Weider HSV-010 is a versatile RTR choice that works well as a first touring car or as a platform for upgrades. It balances scale looks with a straightforward mechanical layout.
