Compact F103RM chassis engineered for handling and setup

The Tamiya 84032 F103RM is a 1/10 scale formula kit built around a rear direct drive 2WD arrangement. The direct motor-to-spur engagement offers efficient power transfer and crisp throttle response suited to practise and competition settings.

Structure and suspension characteristics

The chassis features a fibre reinforced plastic lower deck with a half upper deck to combine stiffness and low mass. The front suspension uses independent kingpins with coil springs, while the rear utilises a friction pad configuration with a coil spring damper to keep body roll in check through corners.

Handling, balance and tuning

Rear battery placement improves traction and balance for corner exit. The height-adjustable gear case accommodates a type 540 motor and allows gearing adjustments. A standing steering servo mount and isometric tie-rods contribute to repeatable steering feel and accurate turn-in.
