Overview of the F201 Monocoque Platform

The Tamiya 58294 - 1/10 Scale R/C High Performance F201 is built around a monocoque plastic F201 chassis and a four-wheel shaft drive layout that prioritises a compact, sturdy package. It provides a solid starting point for drivers who prefer to tweak handling and response through setup changes.

Handling and Drive Components

Handling benefits from a full set of ball bearings that reduce friction and oil-filled shocks that smooth impacts. The included RS 540 sport tuned motor gives spirited throttle response and works with the single-speed transmission to keep drive delivery straightforward for tuning.

Customisation and Body Options

The kit supports suspension adjustment and camber tuning to suit different surfaces or driving styles. Two body styles are supplied allowing either custom painting on the clear polycarbonate shell or a ready-made Lexan carbon fiber pattern look, while the black rear spoiler enhances the modelled appearance.

The Tamiya 58294 makes a practical base for racers and collectors who like to refine handling and change appearance. It balances reliable mechanics with opportunities for upgrades.

Yes, an electronic speed controller and a compatible transmitter and receiver are required extras not included in the kit to complete the drivetrain and control system.
The kit includes rubber treaded tyres sized 30mm wide with a 62mm outer diameter, suitable for typical on-road surfaces.
The black plastic rear spoiler is a fixed cosmetic part but suspension and camber adjustments offer the main ways to tune rear-end grip.
