Accurate Formula Styling for Model Enthusiasts

The Tamiya 58559 - 1/10 RC Ferrari F2012 captures the 2012 Ferrari F1 look in a scale kit crafted for model builders and track hobbyists. The focus is on faithful body lines and a chassis that promotes realistic handling characteristics.

How the F104 Chassis Handles

The F104 chassis uses a straightforward 2WD architecture that gives a clean, predictable driving feel. With independent front suspension and a solid rear axle, it provides controlled steering and steady traction during on-road runs.

Finish and Detail Options

The clear polycarbonate body is optimised for inside painting and fine decals. Two styles of side pontoons are supplied so builders can replicate the original aerodynamic look or personalise the car to their taste.

Drive Components and Cornering Control

Fitted with a 540-brushed motor, the kit offers dependable motive power while the ball pressure plate differential improves corner exit control. Friction dampers aid in smoothing out minor bumps to keep tyre contact consistent.

Yes, the F104 chassis and slick-style tyres are built for smooth on-road surfaces where the model's suspension and drivetrain can perform as intended.
Use paints specified for polycarbonate bodies, applied to the inside of the shell; these paints flex with the plastic and resist chipping better than standard model paints.
Tamiya spare parts for popular kits are generally available through hobby stores and online, covering common wear items like bearings, drive components and suspension parts.
Adjust ride height, balance weight distribution and experiment with damper settings or tyre choice to refine cornering; small incremental changes help find the right setup.
