TA05 Version II chassis summary by Tamiya

The Tamiya 92217 - 1/10 TA05 Version II Chassis Kit with Upgrade Pack combines accurate engineering with a collection of hop-ups aimed at improving handling and component longevity. It is targeted at modelers who like to tune suspension and drivetrain settings.

Included hop-ups and purpose

The kit supplies hop-up parts with an approximate value of $239, selected to boost performance. TRF Special Dampers bring consistent damping thanks to their hard black coating, while aluminium rocker arms and nuts increase rigidity and reduce wear at critical joints.

Setup notes and fitting options

Featuring a 257mm wheelbase and a 1:7.19 gear ratio, the TA05 V.2 offers stable straightline behaviour and predictable turn-in. Medium-narrow racing radial tyres on 5-spoke wheels provide a balanced grip profile. Compatible bodies include TT-01, TB-03 and TA05 series for personal preference and aerodynamic differences.

Assembly considerations

As an unpopulated kit, the TA05 V.2 requires you to source a motor, ESC and battery separately, so it is best for those comfortable choosing electronics and performing initial tuning.

The Tamiya TA05 Version II chassis kit is a dependable base for experienced hobbyists who want to tailor handling and upgrade components for competitive or club racing.
