Improve Cornering Confidence with Gyro Steering

The Tamiya 54417 Active Steering Assist Unit TGU-01 is a compact gyro module that helps stabilise rear-wheel-drive cars. When the vehicle starts to oversteer, the sensor applies counter steering to reduce the chance of a spin, aiding consistent laps on low-grip surfaces. It performs well on chassis such as the F104 and RM-01.

Adjustable Control for Different Track Conditions

This steering assist supports adjustable counter steer range and sensitivity, configurable using a 3-channel transmitter. That lets you tailor intervention to your driving preferences and the available grip. Remember that some formal competitions prohibit gyro aids, including certain classes overseen by major sanctioning bodies in the United States and the Tamiya Championship Series, so it is most useful outside those events.

Specifications

  • Active Steering Assist Unit: 1 piece
  • Screwdriver: 1 piece
  • Compatibility: Suitable for F103, F104, RM-01, M-06 chassis; also compatible with M-05, TA05, and TA06 chassis

For club sessions and casual track days the Tamiya 54417 Active Steering Assist Unit helps drivers keep control of rear-wheel models. Its tuning options make it versatile across different conditions without changing core setup.

Installation is straightforward with the supplied screwdriver and follows typical gyro mounting points. Basic soldering is not required for most compatible chassis.
You can reduce sensitivity and counter steer range for freer slide in drifting, but effectiveness varies by chassis. Trial and error on your setup will find the best balance.
Rear-wheel-drive kits like F104 and RM-01 see the biggest gains. It also fits M-05, TA05 and TA06 but with a different level of correction compared with rear-drive designs.
