JR Heat Edge brief

The Tamiya JR Heat Edge 18636 channels prototype racer styling into the Mini 4WD PRO Series, with a low drag body shape made for lap consistency. Prominent bumper canards and a long shark fin are designed to help keep the car stable through straights and sweepers.

What the MA chassis provides

This kit uses the MA chassis, produced in resilient grey ABS to withstand track use. The integrated double-shaft motor design delivers efficient drivetrain performance, and the chassis layout is friendly to common tuning parts for gearing and balance control.

Practical upgrade suggestions

Speed seekers often fit higher-performance 130 motors and adjust gear ratios to suit race length. Swapping the stock low-profile tyres for specific compounds will improve traction on different surfaces, and experimenting with weight placement helps refine cornering.

Practical assembly tips

Snap-fit construction keeps the build accessible, while included items like the 130 motor and sticker sheet speed setup. Have a small Phillips screwdriver and plastic side cutters on hand for a cleaner assembly and better part fit.

Specifications

For asphalt, harder compound low-profile tyres give consistent lap times and reduced wear; consider experimenting with tyre width and sponge options for grip changes.
ABS bodies accept model paints with proper preparation; clean and lightly sand before applying primer and paint, then add the included decal sheet once dry.
Yes, the MA layout is compatible with many stabiliser and damper accessories sold for Mini 4WD to help improve cornering control.
With tuning and the right parts, the JR Heat Edge can be configured for club-level competition thanks to its adaptable MA chassis and aerodynamic body.
Regularly clean gears and shafts, apply light lubricant to moving parts, and check for wear on bushings and pins to keep the drivetrain running smoothly.
