Revving Up the Track: Tamiya's F103RM Formula Experience
The Tamiya 49498 F103RM is a testament to Tamiya's dedication to realistic and competitive RC racing models. Built on the renowned F-1 inspired F103 chassis, this kit offers hobbyists a chance to experience the thrill of formula racing in a scaled-down version.
Precision Engineering for Performance
The F103RM chassis is equipped with a host of features designed to enhance performance and handling. The inclusion of the Formula Lightweight Diff Joint Set reduces rotational mass, allowing for quicker acceleration. This is complemented by the Formula Height Adjustable Gear Case, which ensures adaptability to different tire sizes, maintaining optimal ground clearance at all times.
Smooth and Stable Handling
One of the standout features of the F103RM is its advanced suspension system. The rear suspension utilizes a ball mount setup instead of the traditional O-ring support, significantly reducing vibrations and providing a smoother roll action. Coupled with a kingpin coil spring front suspension and a T-bar type rear suspension with a friction plate, the F103RM delivers stable and responsive handling.
Customizable and Ready for Action
This kit comes with a battery holder designed to minimize road contact and improve stability. While the M-type body is included (markings not provided), the kit requires additional components such as an R/C system, ESC, motor, 7.2V battery, and charger, allowing hobbyists to tailor their setup to personal preferences and racing conditions.
