Tune Your M-05 with the Tamiya 54224 Aluminium Holder

The Tamiya 54224 Aluminium Battery Holder replaces the stock tray on the M-05 to cut weight and aid thermal management. With an approximate 15 gram saving, this aluminium piece can improve turn-in and transient reactions. The heat sink inspired profile also assists in keeping the battery cooler during extended sessions.

Performance Notes on the Aluminium Battery Holder

Built from quality aluminium, this holder balances toughness with lower mass to give a crisper driving feel. Hobbyists who chase better lap times often add this part to sharpen handling. For secure mounting of battery packs, the use of Tamiya Glass Tape (Item 53170) is advised and is available separately.

Specifications

  • Material: Aluminum
  • Compatibility: M-05 chassis
  • Weight Reduction: 15g
  • Additional Feature: Heat sink shape for cooling
Removing 15g from the battery area can improve responsiveness and may shave fractions off lap times depending on track and setup. Expect subtle rather than dramatic differences.
A thin foam pad under the pack can help prevent abrasion. Use Glass Tape 53170 to secure the pack and check tape condition regularly after runs.
Aluminium surface treatments may be possible but could affect fit or cooling. If you modify the part, ensure mounting points remain true and thermal contact is not compromised.
Inspect for dents or loose fixings after heavy use, and wipe off dust and oil. Re-tape the battery after long race days to maintain a secure hold.
