TAMIYA 300058610-1:10 RC Aqroshot Vehicle (DT-03T)

Product Information

Probably. Some are bundled with ESCs, some aren't. If it was bundled with an ESC from the factory, it will be the TBLE-02 which is brushless compatible. Some hobby shops put in a different ESC if they are assembling their own bundles, and some ship with no ESC at all. The DT-03T is based upon the DT-03, and inherits its hassle-free assembly, durability and effortless drive.

If you want to go brushless, you'll want a better connector than the Tamiya one, so even if your ESC comes with one fitted, you'd be best off getting rid and soldering on a proper one that can handle the current. I prefer Deans, XT60s are also preferred by many.

Admittedly no. I was under the impression that the Dt01 chassis was closer in design to the 02/03 since the 02/03 are very similar.

The Tamiya R/C Aqroshot - DT-03T Model Kit is the first kit to be released with the new DT-03T chassis and is the latest addition to the Tamiya range of radio controlled off road vehicles. Bank holiday on Monday, so I don’t expect it to arrive until later next week, but here what I have on the way:The stylish slimline form of this chassis stems from its lightweight yet durable monocoque frame, which features a longitudinally-positioned battery and the R/C equipment along the centerline for excellent balance. The combination of a long 287mm wheelbase and 4-wheel double wishbone suspension married to CVA oil dampers with long arms at a 25-degree attachment angle, allows the model to handle with stability on poor surfaces. The rear-positioned gearbox is sealed to protect from dust and dirt, with the built-in differential gear offering smooth cornering. The front stays are affixed to the chassis with 4 screws. One of the screws is a 15mm where the other 3 are 12mm. I don't know why this is the case but I think it is a detail that is easily missed. And that's about all for now, can't go any further until the rear universal shafts arrive which should be in the next week or so all being well. Anyway, long ramble to get to the question: what are your opinions of the Mad Bull? Would be interested to hear people's views and experiences. Some suggested Hop Ups... (note that this kit already comes with the Torque tuned motor and CVA's) I have bearings and the ball diff to go in also.

Despite it being a Bitsa, I rather like it, and hope to add it to my fleet one day. However one thing worries me a bit about it - the wheel/tyre combo consists of tyres that are the same front and rear, on wheels that are wider at the rear than at the front. As you can see in the photo, the rear wheels are wider than the tyres, and the resultant angled sidewalls look a bit odd to my eye.The platform is intended as an easy-to-get-started model to encourage young drivers to enter the world of R/C. which features a longitudinally-positioned battery and the R/C equipment along the centerline for excellent balance. Then, to finish the the steering we mount the servo into the nose of the chassis. It goes in upside down. There is an easy access hole under the chassis so the servo saver can be unscrewed thus allowing the servo to be removed without completely disassembling the entire steering setup. I really appreciate this design because it reduces the amount of on/off cycles the ball cups must endure, thus extending their life span. That said, I'm not keen on the big hole in the front of the underside of the chassis. I'm going to have to find something to cover that hole up with. A nice piece of adhesive carbon fiber would be perfect. I'll have to see what I can come up with. Its intuitive yet tough design allows hassle-free assembly and gives less experienced users the opportunity to get to grips with R/C model composition and construction.
