Overview of the FM Reinforced Chassis

Quick Introduction

The Tamiya 95243 FM Reinforced Chassis in red provides a sturdy foundation for Mini 4WD builds. Manufactured from reinforced polycarbonate ABS, it is designed to withstand repeated track sessions while remaining easy to work on for hobbyists.

Handling and Layout Notes

The front motor configuration of this FM chassis moves mass forward, which changes handling characteristics compared with rear motor setups. As an earlier iteration before the Super FM, it still offers reliable behaviour for both casual running and competitive tuning.

Which Bodies and Upgrades Fit?

This reinforced chassis is compatible with several Tamiya bodies, including Crimson Glory, Neo Burning Sun and Aero-Solitude. It also accepts common upgrades like improved motors, revised gear sets and alternative tyre options to match different circuit types.

Assembly Guidance

Snap-fit assembly keeps build time low and reduces need for tools. When assembling, ensure clips engage fully and wheels rotate freely to prevent binding during practice or race day.

Yes, the reinforced FM chassis is suitable for club level racing and practice sessions, offering a good balance of rigidity and tunability.
No special tools are required for the snap-fit parts, though basic hobby tools help with trims and fine tuning during setup.
Inspect clip points and axle mounts for cracks, and check for warping after heavy use; replace or reinforce parts showing stress to maintain handling.
