Give the XV-01 a more controlled rear end with Tamiya carbon uprights

The Tamiya 54443 Carbon Reinforced E Parts are a targeted upgrade to firm up the XV-01 chassis. Swapping to carbon rear uprights reduces unwanted movement and improves the car's response when driving aggressively.

What carbon reinforcement delivers

Using carbon increases stiffness around the rear hubs, lowering flex and keeping suspension geometry more consistent. That stability helps with cornering precision and repeatable lap times.

Compatibility and straightforward swap

Specifically manufactured for the XV-01 chassis, these uprights mount to the existing points and do not require alterations. The replacement is a direct fit for users familiar with basic RC assembly.

On smooth surfaces the added stiffness can sharpen response and make the rear feel more planted, which many drivers prefer for consistent lap times.
Yes, the swap is straightforward for anyone comfortable with routine chassis work. Keep parts organised and torque bolts evenly during reassembly.
Not strictly, but pairing rear uprights with appropriate front components will keep the overall balance predictable. Tune incrementally to find the best setup.
Inspect edges for delamination, check screw holes for splits, and replace any uprights showing visible cracks to avoid failure on track.
They do not alter the original mounting geometry, but it is good practice to recheck toe and camber after swapping to ensure settings remained unchanged.
