Heritage Meets Serviceability in the Blackfoot III

The Tamiya 58498 Blackfoot III brings the iconic silhouette back in a 1/10 2WD format that honours the series history. As the fifth generation, it keeps the familiar look while improving access to the drivetrain and electronics.

Service-Friendly Chassis and Trim

Metal-plated accent parts give the model a period-correct finish, and the reinforced polycarbonate monocoque frame lets hobbyists reach the gearbox and motor without major disassembly. The pre-assembled gearbox eases the build for those new to kits.

Tuned for Mixed Surfaces

With a four-wheel double wishbone suspension and 130mm diameter tyres, the Blackfoot III handles gravel, grass and dirt with stable tracking. The included Type 540 motor offers dependable power for typical off-road runs.

Scale Presence and Custom Choices

The sturdy resin body includes a driver figure for scale presence. Because the electronic speed controller is not included, builders can install an ESC tailored to their preferred driving response.

A sensible pick for modders and collectors who want the Blackfoot look with a chassis that is easy to maintain and upgrade.

The chassis accepts standard radio gear and a steering servo, but these components must be purchased separately.
The model uses large diameter 130mm tyres front and rear; you can swap them for compatible aftermarket tyres to tune traction for different surfaces.
Yes, the resin shell accepts hobby paints and can be decaled or weathered to achieve a personalised finish.
It is suited to grass and mixed off-road terrain, though soft sand may require tyre or gearing changes for best performance.
