Compact Carbon Plate for TRF417V5

The Tamiya 3404012 - TRF417V5 Carbon Upper Deck uses precision-cut graphite to reduce flex and sharpen handling, helping you maintain cleaner lines around corners.

Technical Highlights

Compatibility: Made to suit the Tamiya TRF417V5 chassis geometry
Material: Robust graphite for dependable strength
Thickness: 2.0mm to provide a balance of rigidity and weight
Weight: Light at about 5g for minimal impact on balance

Why Fit This Upper Deck

Replacing the standard deck with this 2.0mm graphite part lowers unwanted chassis flex, which can stabilise corner entry and give more predictable handling through a race program.

Can I use this on foam or carpet surfaces?

Yes, the deck improves stiffness on both foam and carpet, though you may need minor suspension tweaks to suit each surface.

Is any trimming required during fitment?

No trimming is expected for a TRF417V5, but verify standoff clearance and screw lengths to prevent overtightening.

Will this change weight distribution?

At roughly 5g the change is minor, but combined with other lightweight parts it can slightly alter balance and may require small setup adjustments.

What tools are recommended for installation?

Basic hex drivers and a torque feel are sufficient; avoid over-tightening screws to prevent cracking the graphite.
