Overview of the Super Fighter G for Off-Road Use

The Tamiya 58340 Super Fighter G is a practical 1/10 scale buggy that balances durability with approachable handling. Mounted on the DT-02 chassis, it is suitable for club track sessions and weekend off-road play. Its central battery position helps with balance and reduces roll in corners.

DT-02 Chassis Highlights for Rough Tracks

The DT-02 frame is designed to protect components while keeping the overall weight down. The bathtub-style chassis shelters electronics from debris and the sealed gearbox helps keep grit out for longer service intervals. This 2WD layout is efficient and easy to tweak for different running surfaces.

Notable Performance Details

Fitted for a 540-type electric motor, the Super Fighter G delivers steady drive across a variety of surfaces. Double wishbone suspension with coil springs absorbs landings and rough patches, while the differential supports controlled cornering. Tyre selection of grooved front and spiked rear gives dependable steering and traction balance.

Tips for Setup and Personalisation

Try varying tyre compounds and shock preload to suit local track conditions. The car is well suited to common upgrades such as improved dampers or alternative pinion/spur gear ratios for different speed and acceleration profiles.
