Neo Falcon Reworked for Rugged Running

The Tamiya 58401 Neo Falcon combines straightforward engineering with practical parts to create a 1/10 scale buggy that is easy to build and maintain. The DT-02 chassis gives a balanced platform suited to both casual bashing and light competition.

Simple Chassis That Works

The DT-02 layout focuses on reliability and ease of assembly, making it a good fit for those getting deeper into RC. Its 2WD drivetrain and sealed gearbox shield key components from dust and muck encountered on dirt tracks.

Suspension That Keeps You in Control

Independent double wishbones and oil dampers deliver predictable handling across uneven ground. Adjustable upper arms let you dial in camber and handling behaviour to match different surfaces or driving styles.

Slim, Durable Body and Wheel Setup

The polycarbonate body borrows styling from Mini 4WD PRO and keeps weight down for lively handling. White Astral Dish wheels come fitted with grooved front tyres and spiked rear tyres for improved traction where it matters.

Electrics and What You Need to Start

Included are a Type 540 motor and the TEU-101BK ESC. You will need a 2-channel transmitter, a 7.2V battery pack and a charger to run the model. These standard items let you get on track quickly while keeping upgrade paths open.

Tamiya 58401 Neo Falcon is a dependable platform for hobbyists who want an easy-to-build, tuneable buggy. Its robustness and upgrade potential make it a handy addition to any garage or race trailer.

A focused builder can assemble the kit in an afternoon, while newcomers may take a couple of sessions to get comfortable with the parts and instructions.
Yes, the fully enclosed gearbox can be accessed for routine maintenance and gear inspection if you need to clean or replace components after heavy use.
The supplied grooved fronts and spiked rears are a good baseline. For softer soil or grass, softer compound tyres will improve traction and control.
