Tamiya's newest R/C chassis, the 2-belt driven 4WD TA05, is finally here. Fresh from its multiple victories at IFMAR, the world champion TRF team has analyzed a huge amount of feedback from various drivers, races and machines, distilling it all into a single “balanced” package, now available to R/C fans everywhere.
About the TA05 Chassis
Successor to the popular TA04 chassis, the TA05 has been designed with an eye towards the twin goals of Easy Driving and Easy Maintenance. The key feature of this chassis is the innovative transmission system which incorporates two isometric drive belts mounted front and rear, interlocking with tooth surfaced center pulley This design greatly reduces drive resistance to achieve better transmission efficiency at high speeds. The chassis structure has been redesigned for optimum balance, locating the motor in center-left and battery in center-right position. Center shaft, drive belts and spur gear have also been repositioned for improved balance. Suspension is the same durable and reliable system found on the TA04 chassis. Several features make this chassis wonderfully easy to perform maintenance on, such as the single deck frame and one-piece motor mount. Front and rear bulkheads are identical and feature 2-piece detachable design. New-style mount allows diff to be removed without detaching stabilizers. Includes spur gear cover.
The 4th release on Tamiya's cutting edge TA05 chassis is the Esso Ultraflo Supra, currently competing in the GT 500 Class of Super GT. Body features flashy tiger design, sharp angled front fender for one of the best-looking rides on the R/C track!
