Unveiling the Tamiya 49417: A Masterpiece in M-Chassis Engineering
The Tamiya 49417 M-03R Chassis Kit is a testament to Tamiya's dedication to innovation in the world of RC racing. Building on the legacy of its predecessors like the Mini Cooper and Swift S1600, this kit offers a versatile platform for serious hobbyists looking to customize their ride. Recognized in the "Mini-Sports" category at the Tamiya Grand Prix, the M-03R chassis is designed for those who seek precision and performance on the track.
Customization at Its Core
The M-03R chassis allows builders to choose from three different wheelbase lengths: M-03 (210mm), M-03M (225mm), and M-03L (239mm). This flexibility makes it an ideal choice for racers who want to tailor their setup to specific track conditions. The inclusion of lightweight aluminum uprights both at the front and rear enhances the structural integrity while keeping the weight low, ensuring agile handling.
Performance-Driven Features
Race-ready CVA dampers in an exclusive clear blue color are a standout feature of this kit. These dampers, combined with specially designed TRF damper springs that range from soft to hard, offer unparalleled customization for any circuit. The use of durable blue anodized aluminum for parts like the motor heat sink and servo mounts not only adds aesthetic appeal but also ensures longevity under competitive conditions.
Ready for the Race
Complementing the high-performance chassis are the high-grip 60D radial tires mounted on stylish chrome wheels. While the kit does not include the R/C system, ESC, battery, body, or motor, it provides the perfect foundation for building a competitive RC car. Enthusiasts can opt for classic bodies such as the Mini Cooper to complete their build.
