Scale Tribute to a Rally Classic

Launched in 2001, the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII gained acclaim for its 280hp turbocharged engine and electronically managed 4WD system, establishing a reputation on rally stages and road events. Its presence in racing games and media broadened its following among enthusiasts of performance cars.

Features of the TT-01E Chassis

The TT-01E provides a reliable and accessible chassis for on-road models. The shaft driven 4WD layout promotes steady traction while the independent double wishbone suspension matched with oil filled shock absorbers allows for controlled handling that suits learning drivers and more technical setups.

Model Finishing and Electronics Needed

The supplied clear polycarbonate body is detailed and ready for trimming and painting with polycarbonate paints to achieve accurate liveries or personal designs. Completion requires additional items: a 7.2V battery and charger, suitable radio equipment, a servo and a receiver, ensuring builders learn practical assembly and electronics installation.

Inspect drive shafts, tighten any loose screws and check shock oil levels after several sessions to maintain consistent handling and drivetrain reliability.
Yes, the TT-01E is capable of light track running and club sessions, though higher stress use may call for strengthened or upgraded components.
Use a clear polycarbonate lacquer or protective film and avoid solvents not intended for lexan bodies to keep the paint finish durable during use.
The TT-01E is optimised for on-road surfaces; rough or loose terrain will increase wear and may require different tyres and suspension tuning.
