The Tamiya 42289 - 1/10 RC TRF102 Chassis Kit targets enthusiasts focused on 2WD formula performance. Its T-bar rear suspension separates pitch and roll behaviour so the car keeps tyre contact on mixed surfaces, which helps drivers find consistent lap times at competitive meetings like the Tamiya Grand Prix.
With a 2.0mm carbon upper deck paired to a 2.5mm carbon lower deck, the TRF102 balances rigidity and controlled bend to tune front-to-rear grip. A floating mount for the traction battery aids mass centralisation and helps the chassis settle into corners.
The independent T-bar arrangement gives distinct pitch and roll responses, while a low roll point increases the roll moment for better cornering balance. The pitching shaft is self-contained to smooth rough sections, and the aluminium servo mount plus carbon steel bridge provide a stiff steering platform.
Compared to the TRF101, this chassis opens up more mechanical mounting area so you can tailor electronics layout and balance. The adjustable aluminium motor mount also allows fine tweaks to rear wing placement and drivetrain alignment.
The Tamiya 42289 - 1/10 RC TRF102 Chassis Kit appeals to tuners and experienced racers who want a chassis that reacts predictably to setup changes.
