Refined Drift Chassis with Tunable Flex

The Tamiya 84294 - 1/10 TA05-VDF II Drift Chassis Kit refines the original VDF layout with improved flex management and more setup flexibility. This limited edition is aimed at drivers who want a race-capable base for precision drifting.

Reworked Deck and Drive Layout

At its core the TA05-VDF II adds a vertical frame and a redesigned carbon fibre lower deck to increase roll compliance while keeping predictable balance. The triple belt drivetrain and an aluminium motor bulkhead combined with a lowered spur gear position enhance drive efficiency during long slides.

Setup Range and Quality Hardware

The parallel steering geometry opens up a wider array of adjustments for tuning steering feel. With TRF-style dampers, short reversible suspension arms, a front ball differential and a rear direct coupling, the kit provides a solid foundation for competitive tuning.

This chassis suits experienced hobbyists who plan to refine setups and components. Its combination of flexible construction and precise geometry makes it an excellent platform for controlled, competitive drifting.

Expect to spend several sessions tuning dampers, tyre choice and steering link positions to find a consistent drift setup. The platform is designed for iterative adjustments rather than plug-and-play performance.
Yes, with the right electronics and careful setup the TA05-VDF II is capable of event use. Its high-spec parts and tuning range make it suitable for experienced competitors.
Regular checks of belt tension, diff condition and suspension bearings will keep performance consistent. Replace worn bearings and inspect belts for fraying after heavy use.
Yes. Many builders fit aluminium upgrades, alternative suspension arms and upgraded differentials to tune handling, strength and durability according to their driving style.
