The actual model is great. Definately recommended. But be wary of this 'bundle'. You get only 4 batteries for the remote control when the version I was sent requires 8!

Is this a good choice for first build? Does the Sports package includes everything I would need to build? Also what's the max speed ?
Asked by Gurps on 31st December 2016
Yes it'd be an ideal first build. The sport package includes everything you need except paint for the bodyshell. Top speed would be around 25mph or so.

Hi do you do a kit that will install a brushless motor into a Tamyia Dark Impact?
Asked by Lee on 22nd August 2017

There's no kit as such required - just a suitable brushless motor and ESC

Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models

What's a good (high performance), brushless motor + ESC combo for the Tamiya Dark Impact?
Asked by Reginald on 27th January 2020

Something entry level would be say HW38010204 moving up to say P-CC010-0164-05 and HW38020285

What tamiya buggy is best for jumping I'm interested in the dark impact
Asked by Chris Wall on 5th April 2020

These will be fine for smaller jumps.

For larger jumps, you probably want to look above the Tamiya range at a better brand such as Arrma or Traxxas

I’m a novice and am interested in buying a HC-58370 kit for off-road use complete with RC steering and speed - what do I need to order to give a complete model up and running? Thanks
Asked by Nicholas Hodge on 2nd June 2020

If you go for one of our combo packs, they include most items you will need to get up and running.

Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models

Looking at getting one what is the stock motor in it and what would be the best thing to upgrade it to?
Asked by Owen Brisrow on 22nd January 2021

These have a standard 540 size motor.

"Best" would depend a bit on budget, but say a decent brushless setup would be say HW38010203
