Tamiya 1:10 XV-02RS Pro Chassis - KIT TAM-58726

Tamiya is delighted to announce this shaft-driven 4WD touring chassis kit - based upon Item 58707 XV-02 PRO Chassis Kit – in the XV chassis series; this time the kit is mainly oriented for on-road, and features updates such as dedicated 3.5mm thick carbon fiber damper stays, aluminum-cylinder oil dampers employing shaft length suited for on-road performance, and carbon fiber-reinforced rigid lower deck.

On-Road Oriented Rally Chassis!
This 4WD touring chassis assembly kit features a front midship motor and transmits power from the spur gear in the center via identical length front and rear propeller shafts, and is ideally setup for on-road running. 39T differential gears front and rear, and one setup option 40T differential gear are included, facilitating changes to drive balance. It features optimum balance and a slim chassis with carbon fiber-reinforced rigid lower deck. The 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension has dedicated aluminum-cylinder oil dampers.

Featured Components:

• Full ball bearings, front and rear aluminum propeller shafts, front and rear oil-filled gear differentials (2x 39T and 1x 40T gears included), front and rear universal drive shafts
• Front and rear aluminum oil dampers (blue caps, touring car size), 6-degree caster blocks, turnbuckle upper arms, 3.5mm thickness carbon damper stays
• Carbon fiber-reinforced lower deck, aluminum servo mount, angled front bumper, hi-torque servo save.
• The chassis employs an aluminum servo mount and hi-torque servo saver. Turnbuckle rods allow swift steering adjustment.
• The double wishbone front suspension features 6-degree caster blocks.
• High performance aluminum cylinder dampers are touring car size, with 30.5mm piston rods. The damper stay is 3.5mm thickness carbon fiber.
• Identical length propeller shafts transmit power from the central spur gear to the front and rear.
• Sealed front and rear gearboxes house oil filled gear differentials.
• Upper arm attachment in the double wishbone rear suspension can be altered by the use of spacers from separately sold Item 53539.
• Rear aluminum cylinder oil dampers are also touring car size.
• The battery pack sits on its side, allowing a narrower chassis. Access it by opening the levers front and rear, as shown here.
• Take a closer look at the carbon fiber-reinforced plastic lower deck.

About the Model:

• This is a 1/10 scale R/C chassis assembly kit.
• Features aluminum-cylinder oil dampers employing shaft length suited for on-road performance, and dedicated 3.5mm thick carbon fiber damper stays, and carbon fiber-reinforced rigid lower deck.
• 18-spoke wheels are paired with racing semi-slick tires.
• Equipped with front midship motor plus identical length front and rear long propeller shafts.
• Comes with two 39T differential gears and one 40T differential gear for adjustment of front and rear drive balance.
• Use 39T gears (w/15T gears) on the front and rear for standard drive balance, 39T gear (w/15T gear) on the front and 40T gear (w/15T gear) on the rear for drive balance bias to front and vice-versa for drive balance bias to rear. *Use the latter two with slipper clutch and center differential.
• A longitudinal battery pack is positioned in the center-left for optimum balance.
• The flat chassis bottom and skid angle on the front bumper further contribute to limit surface contact.
• Caster blocks feature an angle of six degrees.
• Includes front and rear universal drive shafts, and an aluminum servo mount.
• Please note that a polycarbonate chassis cover is not included this time.
