1/10 Electric Powered R/C TRF414 Chassis Kit/Limited ReleaseItem-Coming Soon!
| The predecessor of the TRF414, the TRF414X chassis was released in America on an experimental basis in August of last year. Since then, it has chalked up impressive race results at several prestigious events including the ROAR Championships in the U.S. and the JMRCA sponsored All Japan Championships. Using data accumulated at these races as valuable feedback, the TRF now brings out the next evolution of the racing chassis-the TRF414. A rigid carbon graphite, double-deck frame makes up the backbone of the chassis. To that, an efficient double one-way belt-drive train and double wishbone suspension are adopted, offering a wide variety of setting adjustments. The TRF414 chassis has been specially tailored for victory in international open-class races. |

About the TRF414 Kit:
 Based on the feedback data of its predecessor, the suspension and chassis geometry of the TRF414 have been improved. Its roll center was slightly dropped down allowing for a lower center of gravity, and its wheelbase was extended by 2mm for maximum stability at high speeds.Wheelbase: 256mm, Overall width: 189mm (depends on wheels used). Weight fully equipped: approx. 1,470 (depends on type of R/C mechanics and battery used).
Chassis features durable resin suspension arms, uprights, and knuckle arms (formerly aluminum) for reduced chassis weight. This significantly reduces the weight under the springs, the most important area for weight savings. Also, the symmetry of the upper deck was also changed to heighten cornering performance.
The front and center pulleys consist of one-way type; rear consists of ball diff. type.Kit comes standardly equipped with precisely constructed aluminum bulk-heads, front one-way, and center pulley.Lightweight aluminum hexagonal hubs also included.New anodized setting wheel.0.4 Spur Gear (120T) and Pinion Gear (35T) included in set.50473 High Torque Servo Saver, 53280 Super Low Friction Dampers, 53308 Aluminum Servo Stay, 53365 Aluminum Racing Steering, and 53388 Turnbuckle Tie-Rod Set are also included in set.Newly developed anti-wear grease included.TRF414 special logo sticker.Black package comes with handle, and is shrink-wrapped.TRF logo and serial number plate included in kit for limited release certification.Instruction manual includes exploded diagram instruction manual for easy assembly.Option parts for this kit can be obtained by contacting the Tamiya regional agent in your country. |
