Detailed Touring Car Replica for Tuners

The Tamiya 43520 Nitro Mercedes-Benz C-Class DTM 2004 is a 1/10 scale replica aimed at hobbyists who value detail and setup control. Its nitro engine and balanced chassis layout make it a practical choice for competitive club racing and serious practice sessions.

Period Correct Race Replica

The model faithfully reflects the AMG Mercedes C-Class DTM 2004 look, complete with the metallic silver No. 8 scheme. The pre-painted polycarbonate shell keeps the model looking accurate while withstanding everyday use on track.

Tuned Chassis and Powerplant

The TNS chassis mixes an aluminium lower deck with a rugged plastic upper deck for a stable platform. The OS FS-12SW engine provides the nitro power with a dual needle carb and recoil start, and the independent double wishbone suspension with oil dampers gives fine control over handling balance.

Setup, Control and Parts

With sealed differentials and a shaft-driven 4WD, the car delivers consistent traction and predictable behaviour. It accepts TG10-Mk.1 option parts for those who want to alter steering characteristics, roll stiffness or drive response.

A modern 2.4GHz receiver and quality servo will improve steering response and reliability. Ensure the system fits the available mounts and has suitable throws for touring car control.
Start with the stock gearing and adjust for track layout. Lower final drive gives quicker acceleration while taller gearing increases top speed; monitor engine temperature when making big changes.
Inspect the drivetrain for wear, clean the chassis from debris, check diff oil levels and recheck carburetor needles. Replace worn tyres and address any body damage before the next session.
