The Tamiya Fighter NXGEN (DT-04) is a 1/10 scale R/C model assembly kit inspired by full-size single-seater racing buggies. Built on Tamiya’s next-generation DT-04 2WD rear-wheel-drive platform, it blends straightforward assembly with lively off-road performance and a broad range of setup options. Part number HC-58741.
The distinctive multi-panel body connects to pipe-frame styling for an authentic race look, while a newly designed lightweight bathtub chassis prioritises durability and balanced handling. Choose between two wheelbases to suit your track or driving style, and enjoy easy top-access battery changes thanks to a clever hinged roof and sliding driver figure. Paint the included driver with Tamiya Colour paints to complete the scale appearance.
