Key points about the FM Reinforced Chassis Red

The Tamiya 94840 FM Reinforced Chassis Red offers a reinforced foundation for Mini 4WD racers seeking durability and consistent handling. Its red moulding delivers a bold look while reinforcing stress areas for repeated runs.

Chassis layout and handling traits

The FM chassis places the motor forward, improving nose weight and enhancing stability through sweeps and long straights. The reinforced design helps reduce flex during hard cornering and impacts.

Performance tuning potential

Compatible with standard 130 single-shaft motors, this chassis supports common tuning options like tyre choice, gear ratios and weight distribution to dial in lap times for different circuits.

Assembly tips and finishing options

Snap-fit assembly simplifies building and reduces the need for glue or complex tools. While the red finish looks race-ready, builders can customise with paint or accessories to match their livery.
