Track-Tested Chassis Development

The Tamiya 42139 - 1/10 RC TRF511 Chassis Kit carries forward lessons from the TRF501X to offer a more serviceable and agile off-road platform. It is aimed at modelers who want precise handling and quick turnarounds between runs.

Service-Friendly Parts and Weight Savings

The TRF511 keeps the original layout but swaps in lighter components and service-oriented designs. Key improvements include stronger drive belts to reduce slack and reshaped suspension arms to improve responsiveness, based on real lap data to keep the chassis both light and reliable.

Improved Weight Layout for Better Handling

Repositioning the battery helps fine tune weight distribution for improved jump control and landings. The separate upper and lower center bulkheads speed up motor access and simplify gear adjustments, delivering a chassis that balances stability with sharp cornering.

Specifications

Yes, with the right tyre choice and setup the TRF511 handles loose surfaces well, thanks to its refined suspension geometry and adjustable balance.
A standard 2-channel R/C system will work; choose a servo with good speed and torque to match race-style steering response.
Start with conservative camber and toe, then adjust spring rates and ride height incrementally while testing to find the balance between grip and turn-in.
