Scale MiTo Performance on the M05 Chassis

Model builders who value accurate looks and controlled handling will enjoy the Tamiya Alfa Romeo MiTo on the M05 chassis. This 1/10 representation keeps the compact silhouette of the real car while prioritising predictable on-road behaviour and sensible upgrade paths.

Key Advantages of the M05 Layout

The M05 chassis delivers a balanced platform with tuneable characteristics. Its adjustable 239mm wheelbase and the rear placement of servo, receiver and ESC promote a lower center of gravity and straightforward trimming for different track demands.

Handling Characteristics and Options

Featuring a 3-piece tie-rod steering linkage, the MiTo offers crisp steering response and controlled turn-in. The car sits on 60D radial tyres mounted to 5-spoke wheels and supports a range of option parts such as aluminium uprights and adjustable arms for riders wanting to tweak performance.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10
  • Chassis: M-05
  • Wheelbase: Adjustable 239mm
  • Motor: Type 540 motor included
  • ESC: TEU-104BK included

Whether for track practice or a neat display model, the Alfa Romeo MiTo on the M05 chassis gives a balance of scale detail and tunability that suits a wide range of RC drivers.

Yes, the kit includes a Type 540 motor and the TEU-104BK ESC, so you will still need to add a radio system, battery and charger to run the car.
Adjusting toe and camber, fitting softer compound tyres, or upgrading to aluminium uprights can help increase front-end traction and steering precision.
A six-cell flat pack with a standard Tamiya connector is compatible. Check dimensions to ensure the battery fits the M05 battery compartment before purchasing.
With targeted upgrades to electronics, tyres and suspension parts, the MiTo on M05 can be set up for club level competition, though serious racers often fit higher-spec ESCs and motors.
