Control accuracy from the Tamiya TSU-03

Modelers seeking dependable analog control will appreciate the Tamiya TSU-03. Designed to integrate with a broad range of Tamiya kits, this servo offers smooth movement and consistent feel for steering and small actuating tasks.

Precise signal to movement conversion

Using pulse width control, the TSU-03 converts radio inputs into accurate motion. It provides more than 45 degrees of travel per side, which is useful for fine tuning steering geometry and exact trims on the bench or at the track.

Performance for everyday use

Across a supply of 4.8 to 6.0 volts, this unit achieves 3.5kg-cm torque and a 0.17 sec/60 degree response at 6.0V. That combination is well suited to standard steering duties where consistent holding and prompt response are needed.

Lightweight and compact

The TSU-03 weighs 37 grams and measures 40 x 20 x 37mm, making it a good option for models where space is limited and weight must be minimised. It slots into many small servo bays without compromising handling.

The Tamiya TSU-03 is a sensible, no-fuss analog servo for hobbyists who prioritise accurate control and straightforward installation in compact models.

Endpoint settings depend on your linkage and steering geometry. Adjust transmitter endpoints to avoid binding and to get the correct maximum travel for your setup.
Keep linkages free of dirt, check mounting screws and replace worn horns. Avoid prolonged heavy loads and ensure adequate ventilation if the servo sees extended use.
Yes, its compact size and steady motion make it suitable for light-scale accessories, as long as the torque requirement does not exceed 3.5kg-cm.
Analog units like the TSU-03 offer smooth, predictable motion and are typically more affordable. Digital servos can offer higher holding torque and faster updates, but for many standard applications the TSU-03 provides ample performance.
