Fine-Tuned Handling with the Tamiya 84394 FF-04 Evo

The Tamiya 84394 FF-04 Evo Chassis Kit refines front-wheel-drive performance for on-road competition. Based on proven FF architecture, the Evo adds chassis and suspension upgrades that let experienced drivers dial in stability and steering feel. The kit focuses on a stiff yet light carbon fiber structure and race-capable suspension components.

Stiff Double-Deck Carbon Structure

The chassis uses a 2.5mm lower carbon deck and a 2.0mm upper deck to hold rigidity while keeping mass down. The suspension borrows geometry from the TRF418 series to provide fully independent double wishbones for stable tyre contact. A sealed oil-filled gear differential in an XV-01 inspired gearbox smooths power delivery and helps maintain traction in corners.

Component Quality and Drive Efficiency

Included parts are selected to improve reliability and setup accuracy. The TRF dampers with a hard black coating help control body roll, aluminum turnbuckle shafts offer durable alignment control, and fluorine-sealed ball bearings cut drivetrain resistance. Double cardan driveshafts reduce slip and sharpen throttle response.

The Tamiya 84394 FF-04 Evo is aimed at seasoned RC racers who want a light, stiff FWD base that responds well to setup tweaks and upgrades.

Selecting differential oil depends on track grip and driving style; lighter oils give easier steering while heavier oils increase mid-turn traction. Test a few viscosities to find the balance you prefer.
Yes, the kit accepts a range of motors, including brushless types, but ensure you choose a motor and ESC that fit the chassis layout and battery space.
Regular checks of turnbuckles, bearings and differential oil are recommended, plus cleaning carbon surfaces and inspecting damper seals after each run to keep performance consistent.
Yes, you can upgrade springs, damper pistons and sway components to tune handling; check compatibility with FF-04 Evo geometry before purchasing parts.
Basic RC modelling tools are needed: hex drivers, needle-nose pliers, thread lock, and a soldering iron if wiring is required. A setup stand and tyre truer are useful for competitive runs.
