Classic E30 M3 sculpted for RC drifting

The Tamiya 57800 BMW M3 Sport Evo puts the E30 M3 Sport Evo into a radio control package that captures the coupe's race-bred profile. The clear polycarbonate body replicates the original's flared arches and crisp lines, and sits on the TT-01ED chassis designed for drift-focused setups.

Chassis and drift hardware

The TT-01ED uses fiberglass-reinforced nylon parts to stiffen the frame and deliver steady handling through slides. It ships with Super Driftec tyres that balance controllable slip with durability. The car's four-wheel double wishbone suspension with CVA Super Mini oil dampers and compact springs helps maintain traction and steering precision, while ball bearings lower mechanical resistance and the RS540 Sport-Tuned Motor benefits from an aluminium heatsink.

Driving feel and scale detail

LED headlights add scale presence for evening practice, and the shaft-driven full-time 4WD plus longitudinal motor layout keep traction consistent across varied surfaces. The included ESC with forward and reverse makes manoeuvring and setup simpler for drivers refining drift lines.

Tamiya 57800 presents a faithful miniaturisation of the M3 Sport Evo that blends scale accuracy with a chassis built for controlled drifting and easy tuning.

A smooth, programmable ESC and a torque-focused servo help refine throttle and steering control; matching gearing can also improve low-speed drift balance.
Try firmer springs and harder tyre compounds to reduce grip variation outdoors, and tweak camber and toe settings to stabilise slides at higher speeds.
Basic maintenance is straightforward: check ball bearings, clean the drivetrain, and inspect suspension parts after sessions to keep performance consistent.
