Compact mechanical two-speed control for classic Tamiya rigs

The Tamiya 50253 Mechanical Speed Control Set is a practical replacement for Hornet owners and hobbyists restoring older Tamiya kits. The kit contains a rotary switch with wiring, a 7-watt ceramic resistor, a heat shield, the mounting hardware you need, and clear installation instructions. Although built for the Hornet, the unit also fits Blackfoot, Lunchbox, Midnight Pumpkin, and Monster Beetle for flexible use across several vintage models.

Included parts and compatibility

Two-Speed Functionality: Provides selectable forward and reverse speed settings to keep control simple on classic models.
Comprehensive Kit: Supplied with wiring, resistor, heat shield and mounting pieces plus a step-by-step guide for installation.
Wide Compatibility: Intended for Hornet but compatible with multiple older Tamiya trucks and buggies.

Is this a direct swap for Hornet speed controllers?

Yes. The 50253 set is designed as a replacement for the Hornet controller and uses the included mounting hardware for a straightforward fit.

Will this work with the original brushed motor setups?

It is made for the original style brushed installations. Check that your motor and battery are compatible with a resistor-based mechanical controller before fitting.

Do I need soldering experience to install it?

Basic soldering helps but is not always required. The kit includes prewired parts and clear instructions so users with basic tools can usually complete the job.
