Track-Focused TRF501X: The Tamiya 42105 World Edition

The Tamiya 42105 - 1/10 RC TRF501X World Championship Edition is a competition-grade assembly kit developed with Team TRF input. It emphasises predictable handling and resilience for hotly contested off-road events.

Construction and Race Intent

Offered as a build kit, the TRF501X is intended for modellers who enjoy precise assembly and setup. The package includes multiple option parts to refine on-track behaviour. A revised ball differential improves both feedback and longevity, while aluminium caster blocks and reinforced rear uprights strengthen the suspension mounting points.

Component Highlights and Drivetrain

Included features such as high-strength steel ball connectors and Delrin damper pistons help produce controlled suspension travel. The drivetrain employs an 18T centre pulley alongside a 37T ball diff pulley driving 369mm belts for consistent power distribution. The clear polycarbonate body is profiled to lower drag and enhance straight-line stability.

The Tamiya 42105 TRF501X World Championship Edition is suited to club competitors and skilled hobbyists seeking a durable chassis ready for frequent tuning. Its race-oriented design supports progressive upgrades and track testing.

The kit is aimed at intermediate to advanced builders comfortable with assembly, setup adjustments and basic soldering for electronics.
The ball differential offers consistent torque transfer and can be tuned with grease or diff oil to suit low or high grip surfaces.
Many aftermarket upgrades for 1/10 TRF-style platforms are compatible, but check part numbers for exact fit and clearance.
No, the kit does not include electronics; you will need to supply motor, ESC, servo, receiver and battery separately.
