Tamiya 58289 Ferrari Modena rendered on the TL01 platform

The Tamiya 58289 - 1/10 Ferrari Modena TL01 Chassis Kit captures the look of the Ferrari 360 Modena Challenge while using a proven TL01 chassis design. This kit appeals to hobbyists who want a faithful polycarbonate body with a chassis that prioritizes predictable handling and durability for club track runs and street-style circuits.

TL01 chassis basics and on-road behaviour

The TL01 layout is known for a lightweight monocoque construction and a shaft-driven 4WD drivetrain that delivers steady traction on paved surfaces. The double wishbone independent suspension helps balance the model during cornering and the enclosed gearboxes protect bevel differentials for reliable power transfer. These features combine to give a linear, controllable feel when you are tuning for lap consistency.

Setup and getting the best from the kit

Supplied to accept a Type 540 motor, this kit gives a good power band for both newcomers and experienced drivers. Fine-tuning friction dampers, testing tyre compounds and adjusting ride height are effective ways to refine handling. The polycarbonate shell keeps weight low while offering a realistic silhouette that also aids aerodynamic stability at speed.

Assembly is accessible for beginners with basic modelling skills; the instructions are clear and many parts are modular, though you will need to fit electronics and tune the setup yourself.

Yes, polycarbonate bodies for the 1/10 scale Modena and other TL01-compatible shells can be sourced separately if you want spare or custom painted shells.
Inspect gearbox lubrication, check differential operation and monitor wear on slipper pads and tires; keeping the shafts and bearings clean will preserve smooth running.
