A Beginner-Friendly Platform with Racing Roots

The Tamiya Fighter NXGEN 58741 brings approachable performance to the Fighter Buggy family, inspired by US single-seater racing buggies but aimed at those new to the hobby. Its design balances race styling with straightforward build steps so beginners can focus on driving and setup.

DT-04 Chassis Benefits

The DT-04 chassis delivers rear-wheel-drive handling that is engaging yet manageable. Sharing key suspension arms and gearbox parts with DT-02 and DT-03 models increases the range of compatible upgrades and makes maintenance simpler.

Durable, Low-Fuss Body Construction

Injection-moulded white polycarbonate panels provide a sturdy, finished shell that only needs the supplied stickers applied. This removes the need for painting and allows quicker transition from build to running sessions.

Adjustable Handling for Different Tracks

Tamiya Fighter NXGEN 58741 is a capable entry-level kit that gives beginners a solid starting point and experienced modellers a dependable chassis to tune and improve.

This kit is aimed at beginners and intermediate hobbyists who want a manageable build with room to learn setup and basic maintenance tasks.
Yes, compatibility with DT-02 and DT-03 component ranges helps when sourcing replacement or upgrade parts from common suppliers.
The included motor and Hobbywing ESC are suitable for practice and casual club events, though competitive racers may opt for motor or ESC upgrades to match class requirements.
Check damper oil levels and seals regularly, replace or service CVA units as needed, and re-fill with the recommended oil to keep consistent damping performance.
