Scale Racing Heritage: Ferrari 360GT Daytona by Tamiya

The Tamiya 44035 1/10 GP Glow Engine R/C 4WD Racing Car captures the Ferrari 360GT Daytona profile on a rugged chassis engineered for competitive driving. It is perfect for modellers who prioritise period-accurate styling alongside practical performance components.

TG10-Mk.1 Platform Features

The TG10-Mk.1 chassis uses a 2.5mm duralumin lower deck with a reinforced nylon upper deck to deliver a stiff yet serviceable frame. The shaft-driven 4WD system helps provide balanced traction during acceleration and corner exits.

FS-12LT Engine Performance

Included is the 2.1cc FS-12LT nitro engine, which offers a lively powerband while remaining manageable. The recoil starter aids ease of use and the assembly benefits from the set of ball bearings for smoother power transfer.

Chassis Dynamics and Braking

Independent double wishbone suspension with oil dampers keeps tyre contact reliable, and the large disk brakes give solid stopping control, helping tame the car at higher speeds on track or open surfaces.

Do I need special tools to assemble the kit?

Basic modelling tools, metric hex drivers, and a soldering iron for some radio connections are usually sufficient. A small vice and thread-lock can make assembly neater and more secure.

Where can I source replacement parts if needed?

Tamiya parts suppliers and specialist hobby stores stock common spares. Aftermarket suppliers also offer upgraded components if you want to modify durability or handling.

Is engine break-in required for the FS-12LT?

Yes, follow a careful break-in procedure with moderate runs and progressive tuning to seat the engine properly and achieve reliable performance.

Can the model be upgraded for better lap times?

Upgrades such as stiffer dampers, improved tyres and lighter drive components can shave lap times. Tuning setup is often more effective than replacing many stock parts.
