Introduction to the Diospada Premium AR Chassis

The Tamiya 19443 Diospada Premium is a recognisable Mini 4WD model noted for its bold styling and the resilient AR chassis. Appearing in "Let's & Go!!" and driven by Carlo of Rosso Strada, the kit merges dramatic aerodynamics with a tuneable chassis platform.

Styling cues and real world influence

The car's exterior carries pronounced wings at the front and rear alongside a slender nose, creating a race-inspired silhouette. The design mirrors elements from competitive machines where aerodynamic efficiency and quick direction changes are priorities.

Design of the AR chassis and maintenance

The AR (Aero) chassis balances robustness with ease of upkeep, suiting both newcomers and seasoned builders. Its open layout supports a wide variety of modifications, and the metallic grey ABS gives good strength and a smart finish.

Options for upgrades and tuning

Owners can fit upgraded 130-series motors and trial different tyres and gear sets to tune handling and straight-line performance. The factory 3.5:1 gear ratio offers a sensible compromise between speed and acceleration across many tracks.

Assembly and tools

The kit is assembled primarily by snap-fit, but a small Phillips screwdriver and plastic cutters will help achieve clean joins. Included are white 5-spoke low-profile wheels and black 26mm tyres, ready for race-day tweaks.

The Tamiya 19443 Diospada Premium makes a fine base for racers who want an attractive shell and a chassis that responds well to common performance upgrades.

With a well-chosen motor and tyre combination and some setup work, the chassis can be tuned to be race-competitive at club level. Fine-tuning is key to getting lap time gains.
Adjust tyre compound and width, lower the centre of gravity where possible, and experiment with small changes to gear ratio to improve corner exit and stability.
Regularly clean gear teeth and bearing surfaces, check for worn pegs or bushes, and replace tyres when tread and grip decline. Light lubrication keeps the drivetrain running smoothly.
Yes, the kit comes with decorative metallic stickers and other markings so you can finish the model straight from the box or add your own paintwork for a custom look.
