Tune the TRF502X Centre of Gravity

The Tamiya 84305 RC Battery Holder Weight is a neat solution for those wanting precise balance adjustments on the TRF502X chassis. The slim components sit under the battery trays so you retain full electronics clearance while changing mass distribution.

Shifting Mass for Better Cornering

The set includes one centre weight plus two side weights, each shaped to match TRF502X battery tray contours. Strategic placement lets you move the centre of gravity rearwards to lift front-end grip or stabilise the car through fast sweepers and tight turns.

Designed for a Direct Fit

Built specifically for the TRF502X platform, these weights fit without modification for a clean install. Attach under the existing trays and re-run a setup check to fine-tune handling for your local track surface.

The set is intended to provide incremental ballast so you can test small changes to balance. Use scales to measure the exact change for your setup.
Yes, shifting weight rearwards can help rear traction on loose surfaces, but you may need to soften suspension settings to maintain compliance.
No extra parts are typically required; the weights are designed to use existing tray mounting points. Keep original screws handy in case you need to change lengths.
Changes are usually subtle but measurable once you tune springs and dampers to complement the new balance. Test with timed runs to quantify gains.
