Retro-Livery Tamiya 18711 Trairong FM-A Chassis 1/32 Mini 4WD Kit  [18711]

Trairong by Tamiya 18711: Form That Races

The Tamiya 18711 Trairong brings a bold tricolour motif to a chassis built for precise setup work. Its profile is designed to be both eye-catching and efficient through corners and straights.

Bold Shape with Sturdy Construction

This body is moulded in durable red ABS and finished with decals that reflect the Thong Trairong palette. The hawk-like nose and flared fenders create a low silhouette that helps with airflow and gives the car a striking pit-side appearance.

Front-Motor FM-A Chassis Dynamics

Featuring the FM-A chassis, the Trairong benefits from a front motor layout that tends to improve stability when entering turns. The chassis accepts many standard Mini 4WD upgrades, so you can tailor handling to your favourite tracks.

Tuning Options for Different Tracks

Common upgrades include faster 130 motors, tyre swaps for grip variation, and gear changes for top speed or acceleration. The platform also works well with weight tuning and basic damper setups to refine lap times.

Build Notes and Power Requirements

The kit uses snap-fit parts to simplify construction for less experienced builders. It requires two R6/AA/UM3 batteries, which you will need to purchase separately.

Tamiya 18711 Trairong is a compact, tuneable Mini 4WD that appeals to hobbyists wanting a distinctive shell and a chassis that supports progressive upgrades for track performance.
