About the Tamiya 58399 Plasma Edge DF-02

The Tamiya 58399 Plasma Edge DF-02 is aimed at drivers who want a robust, serviceable platform they can customise. Its hardy construction and common component layout make it suitable for experimenting with upgrades and tuning.

Stable DF-02 Chassis Layout

This buggy uses the DF-02 chassis to deliver balanced handling and straightforward setup. The Type 540 motor is mounted lengthwise in a bathtub frame, helping to lower the center of gravity. A sealed ball bearing gearbox keeps internal parts protected from dust.

Capable Suspension with Oil Dampers

Four independent suspension arms with oil dampers allow the vehicle to soak up big hits and maintain grip on uneven terrain. The damping helps preserve control when landing jumps or charging over rough ground.

Light Bodywork and Included Electronics

The kit includes a lightweight polycarbonate body with new sticker decals and coloured wheels for a custom look. The TEU-101BK ESC comes in the box, but you will need to supply a 2-channel radio, battery and charger separately.

For enthusiasts who enjoy hands-on setup and incremental upgrades, the Tamiya 58399 Plasma Edge DF-02 offers a dependable base for both casual running and club competition.

The oil dampers and independent suspension handle ruts and uneven ground well, though tyre choice and damping adjustments will affect performance significantly.
Out of the box it is a good practice car, but racers often add upgraded shocks, stronger dogbones and tuned gearing to be competitive.
Regular checks of wheel bearings, driveline joints and gearbox seals will keep the car running well. Clean and re-lube after dusty or muddy sessions.
