Scale Rally Detail with Genuine Glow Power

The Tamiya 43504 combines a true glow-engine driving experience with finely replicated Subaru WRC 2002 bodywork at 1/10 scale. Supplied with a pre-assembled TGS chassis and a factory-finished shell, this model targets hobbyists who value scale accuracy and dependable mechanics.

Heat Management and Chassis Strength

The central TGS chassis features a resin monocoque and an aluminium die-cast power train deck to aid heat dispersal and structural rigidity. The Active Cooling System (ACS) enhances airflow around the engine to reduce the risk of overheating during sustained runs.

FS-12SS Engine Characteristics

Powered by the FS-12SS 2.11cc unit, the car offers robust intake flow and consistent running across rev ranges. A recoil starter facilitates convenient restarts, while the shaft-driven 4WD maintains stable drive delivery on mixed-surface layouts.

Suspension Setup and Radio Control

Handling is delivered via a 4-wheel double wishbone suspension layout that promotes strong road holding. Sealed front and rear gear cases protect the differential gears, and the supplied EXPEC wheel and trigger transmitter provides accurate throttle and steering input for precise control.

The Tamiya 43504 appeals to collectors and active club racers who want an authentic nitro touring car with straightforward servicing and parts availability.

A basic needle adjustment and running-in routine is advised for the FS-12SS to ensure optimal mixture and longevity; follow the engine instructions for initial settings.
Carry a spare glow plug, basic spares for drive train items, fuel, and a small tool kit to deal with common issues during a club session.
With appropriate setup and tuning, the Tamiya 43504 can be competitive in vintage or nitro touring class events, subject to club regulations on modifications.
Clean off dirt and fuel residue, drain the fuel system or use after-run oil in the engine, and store the model in a dry place to avoid corrosion or material degradation.
