Tamiya 15517 Short Damper Block Overview

The Tamiya 15517 Short Mass Damper Block provides a compact way to alter the weight layout of a Mini 4WD car. These short blocks are useful for lowering the centre of gravity and trimming unwanted body motion at speed.

Compatibility and Use Cases

Built to fit MA, FM-A and AR chassis types, these mass dampers let you experiment with front and rear bias without heavy modifications. They are well suited to tune cars for mixed technical and fast circuits.

Race Day Setup Tips

When preparing for an event, use these dampers to test balance across qualifying and final runs. Small incremental adjustments deliver the best insight into how weight shifts affect lap times and consistency.

I have been purchasing Tamiya products with Rcjaz for a couple of months now, selection is awesome and service is quick and reliable, considering I leave half way around the world.

Will these blocks work with lightweight bodies?

Yes, they are especially useful with light bodies where a small amount of additional low-mounted mass can improve stability without adding excessive overall weight.

Do they require special mounts or hardware?

Most standard mounting points will accept these blocks. If your chassis uses non standard brackets, consider simple adapters or adhesive fixing to secure the blocks.

How should I log changes when testing positions?

Keep a short notebook of placement, lap times and observed handling changes. Record one variable at a time to isolate the effect of each damper position.
