Scaled Icon: Honda Ballade Sports Mugen CR-X Pro from Tamiya

The Tamiya 58503 Honda Ballade Sports Mugen CR-X Pro reproduces the compact sporting profile of the original CR-X with Mugen detailing. This 1/10 kit appeals to builders who value authentic period styling.

M-05 Chassis Overview and Handling Traits

The M-05 platform models the front-wheel-drive characteristics of the full-size car, offering a predictable steering feel. Independent suspension and coil-over dampers contribute to stable cornering and allow straightforward setup changes.

Assembly Highlights and Electronics Requirements

The detailed polycarbonate body and a 225mm wheelbase make for good on-road dynamics. Since the speed controller is not included, the builder can select an ESC and motor to suit either relaxed runs or more spirited performance.

Do I need special tools to build this kit?

Basic modelling tools such as side cutters, files, a hobby knife and screwdrivers are sufficient. A polycarbonate-safe paint and masking tape are recommended for the bodywork.

Can I run this car on carpet or grass?

This kit is optimised for smooth, sealed surfaces. Carpet may work at low speeds, but grass and rough terrain are not suitable for the on-road M-05 setup.

What maintenance should I plan for after running?

Check wheel nuts, clean bearings, inspect suspension links and ensure the electronics are dry and secure after each session to keep the car reliable.

Is the body compatible with aftermarket decals?

Yes, aftermarket vinyl decals designed for polycarbonate bodies will adhere well once the surface is properly cleaned and prepared.
