Scale Rally Handling from the Tamiya 57797

The Tamiya 57797 1/10 RTR Repsol Mitsubishi Ralliart Racing Lancer delivers an accurate rally silhouette and a ready-to-run setup that suits weekend drivers and collectors. The polycarbonate bodywork captures the race livery while the DF-01 underpinnings give a reliable base for varied driving conditions.

Background and Rally Inspiration

The full-size Racing Lancer was built for endurance events such as the 2009 Dakar Series and demonstrates Mitsubishi Motorsport's focus on durability. The model mirrors key styling and chassis concepts to provide a faithful scale interpretation.

Drive Train and Suspension Notes

The DF-01 platform features a fully enclosed gearbox and differential gears to reduce dirt ingress and maintain smooth operation. Combined with 4-wheel double wishbone suspension and oil dampers, it gives a stable ride across different surfaces, and the included 2-channel R/C, ESC and type 540 motor are already fitted.

Lighting, Trim and Longevity

Five millimetre LEDs are supplied for authentic head and tail lights, and the set-up accepts extra light units for brake or passing effects. ABS resin parts such as mirrors and snorkel ducts complement the robust polycarbonate shell for extended use.
