Tamiya 44047 Ferrari F430 in 1/10 Scale

The Tamiya 44047 delivers a faithful 1/10 scale model of the Ferrari F430 with realistic bodywork and race-oriented hardware. Built on the TG10-Mk.2SG platform, it is aimed at modellers who enjoy hands-on assembly and performance tuning.

Heritage and Road Car Inspiration

Derived from Ferrari's road-going F430 introduced in 2004, the full-size car featured a 4.3-litre V8 and race-developed technologies. This kit echoes those design cues at scale while preserving the original's sporting appearance.

Chassis Layout and Mechanical Details

The TG10-Mk.2SG chassis provides a durable layout for competitive driving. The included FS-12SWG (O.S.) engine with recoil start, paired with the 2-speed transmission, gives a good mix of acceleration and top speed, while the independent double wishbone suspension and fluorine-coated dampers help maintain composure on rougher surfaces.

Personalization and Setup Options

From suspension shims to alternative gearing, the platform supports a range of adjustments. Builders can swap tyres, refine shock rates and fit hop-up parts to better suit a particular track or driving preference.

What skill level is best for assembling this kit?

This kit suits hobbyists with some model-building experience; expect multiple assembly steps and engine break-in work, so beginners should set aside time and reference guides or videos.

Can I run this car on club tracks and rough surfaces?

Yes, the shaft-driven 4WD and double wishbone suspension handle a variety of club track surfaces, though tyre choice and shock tuning will affect performance on rough sections.

Does the kit include electronics and fuel accessories?

The kit includes the nitro engine but you will need to supply items like radio gear, servos, batteries for the receiver, and fuel accessories separately.

What routine maintenance should I expect?

Routine checks include cleaning after runs, checking driveline bearings, inspecting the engine glow head and clutch, and tuning the carburettor after initial break-in.
