Tamiya 58380 Keen Hawk 1/10 DF-03 4WD Off-Road Kit  [58380]

Track-Ready Tamiya 58380 Keen Hawk Overview

The Tamiya 58380 Keen Hawk is a 1/10 scale 4WD buggy built on the DF-03 chassis that balances durability with nimble handling. Its monocoque layout and thoughtfully placed driveline help the car stay planted when pushing hard over rough surfaces.

Chassis Built for Control

The DF-03 platform is known for its strong, torsion-resistant monocoque that limits flex under load. A centrally routed propeller shaft helps the Keen Hawk maintain an even weight balance, while the double-wishbone suspension is fully adjustable to dial in ride height and damping for different track conditions.

Features Focused on Performance

Large dish wheels paired with high-density spike tyres deliver traction on loose dirt and packed surfaces. Compact sealed gearboxes house ball differentials that aid traction transitions, and full ball bearings through the drivetrain reduce friction for smoother acceleration. CVA oil dampers and long suspension arms add predictable handling and greater stability at speed.

For Builders and Racers

This kit includes a type 540 motor, giving immediate running capability once electronics are fitted. An electronic speed controller is not included so builders can pick an ESC that matches their driving style and battery choice. The Keen Hawk rewards careful setup and is suitable for both club racing and weekend trail sessions.

The Tamiya 58380 Keen Hawk blends a solid platform with adjustable components to make a dependable off-road buggy for tuners and racers alike.
