Shell construction and styling cues

What the FM-A chassis delivers

The FM-A chassis is designed with a front motor layout to bias weight forward and enhance stability on varied track profiles. Aerodynamic shaping combined with a low-friction front skid and 8mm rear rollers helps maintain control at speed.

Performance upgrades and parts fitment

The model accepts a wide variety of Grade-Up Parts for those looking to boost acceleration, traction or handling. Stock setup includes a Type 130 motor with a 3.5:1 gear ratio, which is a flexible starting point for upgrades.

Ease of assembly and maintenance

The kit uses snap-fit parts and clear instructions to simplify assembly. The chassis provides easy access to the motor for quick swaps and routine service. Remember that two AA batteries are needed and are sold separately.

With its distinctive looks and flexible upgrade options, the Tamiya 18718 K4 Gambol is suitable for hobbyists who want a stylish base that can be tuned for club racing or display.
