Tamiya 84255 - 1/12 TA05 M-Four Tunable Racing Chassis  [84255]

Guide to the Tamiya 84255 TA05 M-Four Chassis Kit

The Tamiya 84255 TA05 M-Four Chassis Kit reinterprets the M-chassis concept into a compact 1/12 scale touring base with a belt-driven 4WD system. It gives hobbyists a stiff carbon layout that responds well to setup changes.

Mechanical Layout and Weight Distribution

The TA05 M-Four features a 2-belt drivetrain and a carbon-fiber double-deck that help centralise mass around the 210mm wheelbase. The aluminium motor mount keeps the 380 motor seated near the centre for balanced handling and consistent spur gear engagement.

Control, Damping and Steering Fidelity

With fully independent wishbone suspension and universal shafts, the chassis delivers controlled wheel movement. Aluminium dampers and reinforced steering parts let you fine tune handling precision for competitive or club running.

Upgrades, Bodies and Fitment Notes

This kit is ready for upgrades such as the TA05 Front One-Way Unit and titanium coated suspension shafts, and it accepts 210mm M-Chassis bodies so you can tailor aerodynamics and appearance without extensive modification.

The Tamiya 84255 TA05 M-Four Chassis Kit is a dependable starting point for those who want a compact, mod-friendly M-chassis with room for performance upgrades and different body styles.
