Tamiya 57723 Gravel Hound DT-02 1/10 Off-Road Buggy  [57723]

Take on Trails with the Gravel Hound

The Tamiya 57723 Gravel Hound is a 1/10 buggy that balances durability and straightforward servicing for regular off-road use. The DT-02 chassis gives it a practical layout suited to both practice laps and casual bashing.

Chassis Dynamics and Grip

The DT-02 chassis uses a shaft-driven 4WD arrangement to share power across the axle set, improving traction on uneven ground. Combined with chunky pinspike tyres and friction dampers, the Gravel Hound sticks to loose surfaces with confidence.

Handling, Transmitter and Powertrain

Steering is precise enough for learning car control, aided by the digital proportional transmitter. The Type-540 motor and TEU-101BK ESC deliver steady, manageable power for predictable acceleration on straights and exits.

For model racers and hobbyists wanting a practical, user-friendly off-road buggy, the Tamiya 57723 Gravel Hound offers a sensible mix of toughness and tuneability.
