Keep Rear-Wheel RC Cars Stable with Tamiya Steering Assist

The Tamiya 54417 Active Steering Assist Unit TGU-01 is a small, lightweight gyro designed to make handling more predictable. The sensor senses onset of a slide and applies corrective counter steering to reduce spins, helping you stay on line whether you are running on carpet or a damp surface. It is especially useful on rear-wheel-drive platforms such as F104 and RM-01 chassis.

Fine Tune Steering Response to Your Driving Style

This unit provides adjustable counter steering range and sensitivity that can be trimmed via a 3-channel transmitter. Those settings let drivers dial in mild correction for practice runs or stronger intervention for tricky conditions. Note that gyro systems are restricted in some formal race classes, including events governed by major sanctioning bodies in the United States and the Tamiya Championship Series, so it is best suited to casual use and club meets.

Specifications

  • Active Steering Assist Unit: 1 piece
  • Screwdriver: 1 piece
  • Compatibility: Suitable for F103, F104, RM-01, M-06 chassis; also compatible with M-05, TA05, and TA06 chassis

The Tamiya 54417 Active Steering Assist Unit gives rear-wheel enthusiasts a straightforward way to improve control and reduce spins. Its tuning range makes it a practical add-on for non-competitive setups and practice sessions.

Many organized races ban active gyro assistance; check your club rules and the event regulations. This unit is intended mainly for practice and casual driving rather than sanctioned competition.
A transmitter with an extra channel for gyro trim or dual-rate adjustment is recommended. A standard 3-channel R/C system lets you change counter steer range and sensitivity on the fly.
The unit is optimised for rear-wheel-drive layouts. It can be fitted to other chassis like the M-05 but you may find reduced benefit compared to rear-drive models.
