Improve TB-01 Balance with a Carbon Upgrade

RC builders looking to refine their TB-01 can upgrade to the Tamiya 53408 - TB-01 Carbon Chassis Set, replacing the standard plastic base with a lighter carbon fiber option to cut mass and boost rigidity.

Advantages of Carbon Fiber Parts

Carbon fiber offers an excellent strength to weight ratio, reducing chassis flex while keeping overall weight down. The kit includes countersunk screw holes for a neat finish and marginal aerodynamic gains. The plate is designed with six battery slots so you can fit a range of battery layouts.

How will a carbon chassis affect TB-01 handling?

A carbon chassis reduces flex and lowers weight, which typically improves turn-in precision and overall responsiveness on paved surfaces.

Is the Tamiya 53408 - TB-01 kit hard to fit?

Installation uses the TB-01 mounting points and the supplied countersunk screws, so basic RC assembly skills and common tools are all you need.

Will the existing electronics and mounts still work?

Yes, servo mounts and main drivetrain components remain compatible; the chassis keeps original layout to accept standard TB-01 electronics and hardware.
