Overview of the Tamiya 58492 - 1/10 TA06 PRO Chassis Kit
The Tamiya 58492 - 1/10 TA06 PRO Chassis Kit updates the TA series with focused improvements for touring car performance. Drawing on TRF expertise, it aims to deliver a stable and predictable handling envelope suitable for track work and development.
How the Dual-Drive Works
The TA06 PRO combines a belt-driven front section with a gear-driven rear to achieve effective power distribution and sharp steering feedback. Centralising the battery and motor on the slim monocoque chassis helps maintain a neutral balance that responds well to modern brushless motors and compact battery packs.
Suspension Versatility for Tuners
Builders can opt for an Inboard Front Suspension setup with rocker arms and inboard dampers or select a standard outboard damper arrangement. This versatility supports many Tamiya touring shells and allows precise adjustment via the front and rear gear differentials for different track surfaces.
What the Pro Kit Includes
Included are TRF Special oil-filled dampers with hard black coated aluminium bodies, rebuildable universal drives, anodised aluminium turnbuckle shafts and ball connectors in blue, and a Hi-Torque Servo Saver to keep steering consistent under load.
Materials and Parts Compatibility
The chassis uses FRP for a durable yet practical construction, and many components are interchangeable with the TA-05, simplifying upgrades and repairs. The underside battery access makes swaps straightforward and supports NiCd, NiMh, LiFe and LiPo battery formats.
