Overview of the Great Magnum R and FM-A layout

The Great Magnum R is a Fully Cowled Mini 4WD from Tamiya that evokes the "Let's & Go!!" era. Built on the FM-A chassis, it pairs a streamlined body with a front midship motor location to give a stable platform for both display and competitive use.

Design details that aid stability

The FM-A chassis concentrates weight toward the front via the front midship motor position, improving stability when traversing undulating sections. Included are a front skid bar and four rollers; the rear rollers are specified at 8mm thickness to better resist lateral movement at speed.

Customization notes and included items

The black FM-A chassis is supplied with low-friction POM parts and a white-moulded body, plus metallic blue and white stickers for the shell. Fluorescent green A-spoke wheels and black low-profile tyres are fitted, and the Type 130 motor with a 3.5:1 gear ratio provides the standard performance baseline. The model accepts common Mini 4WD upgrades for racers who want to refine handling and speed.

Yes. The cosmetic finish and stickers make it attractive for display, while the FM-A chassis and standard hardware allow straightforward tuning for club racing.
Upgrading to low-friction rollers, checking tyre choice and experimenting with Type 130 motor variants are common first steps to improve lap time without major rebuilds.
Only basic modelling tools and a small screwdriver are needed for assembly. Optional precision tools help with fine tuning and installing upgrades.
