Graphite Upgrade Built for TRF421

Swap in the Factory Pro O-TCP001 graphite main chassis on your Tamiya TRF421 to reduce weight and refine handling. The 2.25mm graphite construction offers a mix of stiffness and lightness that helps the car settle faster into corners. Cut precisely for TRF421 geometry, this chassis aids in achieving a neutral balance for consistent lap-to-lap feel.

Why Graphite Suits RC Racing

Graphite is prized for delivering strong yet light chassis plates that improve traction and steering feedback. By trimming mass, you get snappier acceleration and more direct input response from the radio. The material also resists flex where you want rigidity, so tuning roll and bite becomes more predictable.

Can I keep my current electronics when fitting this chassis?

Most stock electronics fit without changes, but verify servo and battery clearances after installation. Some drivers reposition components to optimise weight distribution on the TRF421.

How does the chassis affect cornering and grip?

The stiffer graphite base reduces unwanted flex, sharpening turn-in and making the car more consistent through a set of corners. You may need to tweak shock settings to match the new chassis response.

Any special care to avoid damage?

Avoid heavy impacts with curbs and inspect mounting holes after crashes. Clean the surface and check screws for loosening before each session to prevent stress points.
