Precision Reimagined for Competitive Drivers

The Tamiya 42205 TRF417X Chassis Kit sits at the sharp end of 1/10 touring car design. From the Racing Factory lineage, this kit is made for hobbyists who want precise control and a platform that responds to careful setup work.

Chassis Development and Tunability

The TRF417X refines earlier concepts with targeted updates. A redesigned lower deck improves chassis flexibility to help produce more consistent low-speed traction. The three-piece motor mount replaces the former one-piece unit, enabling fine adjustments to chassis rigidity so you can tune balance for different tracks.

Belt Drive and Suspension Setup

Featuring a 4WD dual belt drive, the TRF417X provides smooth power transfer and predictable throttle response. The suspension uses carbon-reinforced plastic components and fully adjustable geometry so racers can dial in camber, caster, toe and ride characteristics for their driving style.

What should I expect from the assembly process?

Assembly requires patience and basic modelling tools; follow the manual step by step and sort small parts in trays to avoid confusion.

Which electronics fit the chassis layout?

The TRF417X accepts standard 1/10 touring car motors, ESCs and servos; check your component sizes against the manual clearance diagrams.

What tyres and rims work best on track?

Low-profile touring tyres tuned to your surface will give the best lap times; match rim offset to maintain correct scrub and balance.

How often should belts and pulleys be checked?

Inspect belts and pulleys before each race day, clean debris, and replace any belt showing fray or slack to keep drive smooth.
