TT-02BR from Tamiya: A Tunable 1/10 Off-Road Base

The Tamiya TT-02BR, model 58717, is a 1/10 scale off-road chassis that answers the need for a reliable, tuneable platform. It keeps the TT-02 DNA but adds specific upgrades to aid handling and setup flexibility.

Design Upgrades to Improve Performance

The TT-02BR introduces aluminium propeller joints and carbon fibre damper stays to expand chassis settings. These components raise rigidity where you want it while enabling finer tuning choices.

Component Overview and Tuning Options

Key hop-up compatible items include an oil gear differential, a hard-coated aluminium pinion and an aluminium prop shaft. These parts let you adjust driveline feel and improve long term durability under stress.

Build Experience and Target Drivers

Builders of all levels will appreciate the clear assembly process and upgrade paths of the 58717 kit. With full ball bearings and refined steering linkages, the TT-02BR is set up for consistent lap times and controlled handling.

For hobbyists who want a dependable chassis that invites upgrades, the Tamiya TT-02BR 58717 offers a balanced mix of durability and tuning potential.

Do I need any special tools to assemble the TT-02BR?

Basic modelling tools are fine: small screwdrivers, hex drivers, side cutters and a hobby knife. A thread locker for metal screws is useful for long term durability.

Which battery fits best in the 58717 layout?

The chassis accepts standard 7.2-7.4V stick or saddle packs. Check battery dimensions against the tray and pick a pack that balances weight front to rear.

How should I tune the oil gear differential?

Start with a medium viscosity oil, then swap to lighter or heavier oils to influence corner entry and exit behaviour. Test changes one at a time for clear feedback.

Are carbon fibre damper stays fragile?

They are stiff and light but can crack on hard impacts. Inspect them regularly and keep spare stays on hand if you run aggressive tracks.
