The Tamiya 58370-60A - 1/10 Dark Impact DF-03 is a compact but capable buggy chassis aimed at off-road enthusiasts. Its well-considered build makes it a strong starting point for bespoke setup work and upgrades.
With the motor mounted mid-rear and the battery set lengthwise, the DF-03 keeps mass centralized for improved balance. This arrangement helps the car stay steady in jumps and tight corners, while bottom-entry battery access saves time during swaps.
The independent double wishbone suspension across all four corners, paired with CVA oil dampers and long arms, promotes predictable handling and keeps tyres in contact over roots and ruts.
The shaft-driven 4WD ensures torque is shared across the axle set for secure traction. The larger off-road tyres feature a tread that grips hard-packed surfaces, and the sealed differential improves longevity by keeping contaminants out.
This DF-03 chassis is a reliable choice for drivers looking to refine suspension and drivetrain behaviour. Its durable construction is forgiving for both track practice and aggressive runs.
