Off-Road Roots of the Baja King

RC fans after a classic desert-style buggy will appreciate the Tamiya 58301 - 1/10 Baja King. Built on the TL-01B chassis, the design is inspired by the Baja 1000 and features a pipe-frame aesthetic with a lightweight cowling that echoes vintage off-road racers.

Robust Chassis for Trail and Track

The TL-01B adapts the TL-01 layout with longer suspension arms and beefed-up dampers to handle ruts and jumps. You can choose between three gear ratios—7.96, 7.20, or 6.57—to tailor torque and velocity for different surfaces.

Personalise and Improve

Owners can fit a wide range of optional parts to boost handling or durability. The package includes star dish wheels and pin spike tyres, and the chassis shares many parts with the Baja Champ for easy upgrades and spares.

The Baja King is a flexible platform for both entry level builders and experienced tuners. Its simple yet sturdy construction makes it a solid choice for beach runs and field sessions.

A focused build typically takes several evenings for a hobbyist working at a steady pace, including body trimming and basic electronics installation.
Yes, the TL-01B accepts 540-size motors; using a compact brushless system with an appropriate ESC will boost performance but may require gearing adjustments.
Ride height is set via the suspension mounting and damper preload; minor changes to arm angles and shock positions let you tune clearance and handling balance.
Replacement polycarbonate bodies and common exterior parts are available through parts dealers, which helps keep the buggy on the track after impacts.
