Tamiya 18636 JR Heat Edge MA Chassis 1/32 Mini 4WD Kit - Precision Tuned  [18636]

Introducing the JR Heat Edge

The Tamiya JR Heat Edge 18636 adapts prototype race styling for Mini 4WD competition, offering a streamlined body that favours aerodynamic efficiency. Notable features include defined bumper canards and a shark fin that stretches from the cockpit to the rear to aid directional stability.

Performance features of the MA chassis

The MA chassis is moulded from durable grey ABS and underpins the car's performance. Its double-shaft motor configuration provides effective power transfer, and the chassis supports a variety of tuning parts so racers can alter gearing, motor selection, and handling setup.

How to upgrade for better performance

Common performance moves include upgrading to a higher-spec 130 motor, tweaking gear ratios for target speeds, and fitting tyres suited to your track surface. Adjusting internal weight distribution and adding damping elements can help with sharper cornering responses.

Build guidance for tidy assembly

The snap-fit design simplifies construction, and the kit ships with a 130 motor and sticker set. For best results, use a small Phillips screwdriver and plastic side cutters to trim and fit parts cleanly.

The Tamiya JR Heat Edge is a versatile Mini 4WD choice for both newcomers and experienced tuners. Its aerodynamic body and adaptable MA chassis provide a practical starting point for focused setup work.
