Built on the DF-02 Platform for Tough Running

The Gravel Hound from Tamiya is a practical 1/10 scale buggy designed for everyday off-road use. Its DF-02 chassis gives a reliable foundation for club racing, park runs, and practice sessions.

Shaft-Driven 4WD and Motor Placement

With the motor set longitudinally, weight is distributed to help keep the buggy planted during corner exits. The shaft-driven 4WD system sends power evenly to each wheel for predictable traction across loose surfaces.

Tuned Dampers and Serviceable Design

Oil dampers at each wheel tame bumps and deliver controlled rebound, while independent suspension keeps contact patch consistency. The sealed semi ball bearing gearbox lowers maintenance needs after dusty or muddy runs.

Robust Polycarbonate Shell

The polycarbonate body is designed to resist scrapes and impacts common in off-road driving, preserving the look and function of the buggy through regular use.

The Tamiya Gravel Hound DF-02 suits hobbyists who want a straightforward build with reliable running characteristics and manageable upkeep.

You will need a radio transmitter and receiver, a speed controller, a compatible motor, and a battery pack plus charger to finish the build.
Yes, aftermarket shock bodies, stiffer springs, or different oil viscosities can be fitted to tune handling for specific tracks.
The semi sealed gearbox helps keep out dirt but is not rated fully waterproof; avoid deep water to protect electronics and bearings.
Higher RPM motors, stronger drive components, and reinforced suspension parts are common upgrade paths for faster running.
Clean tyres with a soft brush and let them dry before storage; check for embedded debris and rotate if uneven wear appears.
