Tamiya 70112 chassis kit for practical STEM learning

This Tamiya 70112 Buggy Car Chassis Kit is an engaging, hands-on project that helps builders explore basic mechanics and vehicle dynamics. The kit highlights coil-spring suspension and a user-friendly gearbox so learners can see theory put into practice.

Suspension and gearbox explained

The chassis comes with a coil-spring suspension that lets users test how damping and spring rate affect ride and stability. The pre-assembled gearbox has selectable speed settings so you can compare how gearing changes acceleration and control on different surfaces.

Learning outcomes and skills

Assembling and adjusting the chassis gives practical insight into linkages, mounting, and motion principles. This kit is well suited for hobbyists and educators aiming to build hands-on problem solving and mechanical reasoning skills.

Finished model use and presentation

Beyond its classroom value, the completed buggy is neat enough for display and demonstration. Functional parts and visible mechanisms make it a great talking piece for demos or a compact addition to a personal collection.

Specifications

  • Material: Durable plastic components
  • Suspension: Coil spring
  • Gearbox: Pre-built with adjustable speed settings
  • Motor: FA-130 included
Yes. The kit uses straightforward parts and clear steps so beginners can complete the build with basic tools and some patience.
You will need a compatible battery pack, an electronic speed controller and a small motor power supply; the kit includes the FA-130 motor but excludes radio gear and batteries.
Yes. The gearbox settings let you change speed characteristics and many builders swap motors or tweak suspension parts to explore different behaviours.
Keep moving parts free of debris, check fasteners periodically, and avoid prolonged runs on abrasive surfaces to preserve gears and plastic components.
