Classic Rally Replica Built for Hobby Driving

The Tamiya 57704 - 1/10 XB Subaru Impreza WRC '99 pays tribute to the late 1990s rally standout while providing a user-friendly RC platform. Mounted on the proven TL-01 chassis, the model balances robustness with straightforward maintenance. Its full-time 4WD and sealed differential gearboxes help deliver steady traction and consistent power transfer, making it suitable for newcomers and experienced hobbyists alike.

TL-01 Chassis Features

The TL-01 monocoque frame is lightweight yet strong, improving agility and predictable handling. Designed for rally-style driving, the chassis supports a double wishbone suspension setup. Four friction dampers smooth out impacts and keep the car composed across mixed surfaces from paved roads to loose gravel.

Motor Positioning and Controls

This kit comes configured with a midship-mounted Type 540 motor that helps centralise mass and refine cornering balance. Control is handled with a wheel-type Adspec GP transmitter and a mechanical speed controller for straightforward operation. Note that batteries and a charger are not included, leaving room for personal electronics choices and upgrades.
