3Racing M4WD-39/LB compact cuboid for Mini 4WD

This compact rectangular 9g cuboid is a simple mass element finished in light blue and supplied by 3Racing. It is intended as a spare weight for Tamiya Mini 4WD cars, giving hobbyists a predictable way to adjust static mass distribution on compatible performance chassis. The item adds plain mass rather than active damping, so it is used where additional ballast is required without complex mechanics.

Mounting and fit depend on the chassis layout and any aftermarket brackets you use. Experienced builders place this low-profile block where it can be secured without impeding rollers, gear trains, or body clearance. It works well with common Mini 4WD accessory holes and universal mass-damper fittings that accept a small rectangular block.

Finish and material matter for model display and consistency. The light blue coating suits visible mounting areas and many custom liveries, but always check clearances and fastener security before running on track. Treat this part as a trimming weight for balance rather than a competitive damping upgrade in regulated series.

Frames with exposed accessory holes or universal damper mounts are the best fit. Check your chassis for flat mounting space and confirm there is room around rollers and the body shell before attaching the block.
Small machine screws into tapped holes, purpose-designed mass clamps, or high-grade double-sided model tape are common solutions. Use a method that prevents movement under vibration and does not contact moving parts.
A 9g addition can alter balance and inertia for tight mini circuits. The effect depends on placement relative to the centre of mass, so test small adjustments and compare lap times or cornering stability.
Surface finish is suitable for display but check for chips around screw holes. For long term displays, consider a clear protective coating or non-abrasive mounting hardware to keep the colour consistent.
Yes, you can use multiple fixed masses for fine trimming, provided combined thickness and fasteners do not interfere with suspension or body clearance. Plan positions to avoid contact with rollers and moving parts.
