Discover the Tamiya 57981 TT01 Type ES chassis

The Tamiya 57981 arrives as a semi-assembled TT01 Type ES platform that lets RC hobbyists get on track quickly. With motor, battery mounting and core drivetrain in place, you only need to fit a body, wheels and your choice of battery and radio gear to start testing setups.

Chassis layout and handling traits

The TT01 Type ES uses a bathtub frame to keep the motor and battery low, lowering the centre of gravity for improved stability. The upper deck and gear covers use a fiberglass nylon construction to add stiffness without excess weight, helping the car remain composed at speed.

Built for easy body and parts swaps

Compatibility with a wide range of Tamiya Body Parts Sets makes the Tamiya 57981 ideal for custom liveries. From classic saloons to modern sport models, you can tailor the look while keeping the same dependable running gear underneath.

Steering precision and suspension detail

The TT01 Type ES includes a three piece tie rod steering setup for predictable input, plus four-wheel double wishbone suspension. Front and rear differential gears provide traction balance that suits both newcomers and more experienced tuners.
