Overview of the Tamiya 18662 Avante Mk.III Nero MS chassis

The Tamiya 18662 Avante Mk.III Nero is a compact 1/32 Mini 4WD model aimed at hobbyists who enjoy building and tuning. The MS chassis offers a sturdy foundation with room for upgrades. The body uses Smoke ABS plastic for a refined silhouette, and the included Light-Dash PRO motor provides improved speed for competitive use.

Design, materials and fit

The MS chassis arrives in red ABS with white A parts for contrast and structural integrity. Metallic sticker sheets are included so you can customise the finish. Its measurements of 155mm by 104mm by 42mm match typical Mini 4WD track allowances and make it suitable for organised events.

Included upgrades and track readiness

This set contains grade-up elements including a 1.5mm FRP front stay and a rear brake stay to improve handling and balance. Low friction rollers and mass dampers help reduce unwanted movement and smooth cornering. A High-Speed EX Gear Set with a 3.7:1 ratio is supplied, optimised for the MS chassis to tune speed and acceleration characteristics.
