Racing-focused summary of the F104 PRO Black Special

The Tamiya 84170 F104 PRO Black Special is engineered for track performance and tuning flexibility. Its black finish and upgraded parts make it a compact yet capable chassis for club and competitive racing.

Stiff chassis for consistent cornering

Carbon upper and lower decks reduce flex and improve directional stability at speed. The Hi-Torque Servo Saver combined with the 04 Module Spur Gear helps deliver precise steering feel and reliable power transfer.

Premium parts chosen for performance

Key option items include a black anodised aluminium motor mount and diff housing plus a carbon rear shaft and TRF damper components. These parts, together with sealed bearings and aluminium pivot plates, increase durability and fine-tuning options.

Weight reduction and aero benefit

The specially formed lightweight polycarbonate body lowers the centre of gravity and improves aerodynamics, enabling snappier responses and steadier lines through corners.

The F104 PRO Black Special is a strong choice for experienced hobbyists who want a nimble, upgradeable platform with race-proven component choices.

Basic RC tools plus a torque driver and precision hex wrenches make assembly easier; a bearing press or appropriate driver helps seat bearings safely.
Soft to medium compound touring tyres matched to track carpet are a good starting point; tyre choice should be tuned alongside roll and camber settings.
Inspect gears and bearings after each race day, clean and re-lubricate as needed, and replace worn parts before they affect handling or cause failures.
Yes, swapping damper pistons or using different oil weights and spring rates lets you adapt damping to high-grip or low-grip surfaces.
