Meet the Flame Astute Red Metallic Special on AR Chassis

The Tamiya 95209 Flame Astute Red Metallic Special brings a compact aerodynamic profile together with the AR chassis platform. It is aimed at hobbyists who enjoy setup work and visual tweaks as much as on-track performance.

Shell Styling and Finish

This special model features a matte red metallic finish over the body and wheel faces for a cohesive appearance. Complementary red, white and blue decal strips and metal-look insignia add a racing touch without overdoing it.

Underpinnings of the AR Chassis

The AR chassis uses durable black ABS to keep weight down while improving airflow. The integrated under panel and diffuser, also in black, support stability and help the car slice through the air cleanly.

Tuning Paths for Racing

There are straightforward upgrade paths such as fitting higher output 130 motors, choosing tyre compounds for grip, and swapping gears to alter acceleration versus top speed. The stock 3.5:1 gears provide a balanced baseline.

Putting the Kit Together

Assembly follows a simple construction method with parts that fit together with limited use of tools. Pre-coloured parts mean you can build quickly, or spend time painting and adding personal touches.

Specifications

  • Chassis Type: AR (Aero)
  • Motor Compatibility: Standard 130 motor included
  • Body Style: Aerodynamic Coupe
  • Wheel Type: Low-Profile Tires
  • Gear Ratio: 3.5:1

The Tamiya 95209 Flame Astute Red Metallic Special is a solid choice for modders who want a sleek shell and AR chassis that respond well to performance parts.

This is my 3rd and largest order from RC Jaz so far and I have to say I've been very impressed with this store. Everything arrived in perfect shape and order, very well packaged and delivered quickly bearing in mind this had to come from the other sid
Swap the low-profile tyres for a compound suited to your track. Tyre choice often has the biggest effect on cornering and stability.
Yes, common hop-ups like aluminium gears, reinforced shafts and performance motors that fit standard 130 mounts are available for this chassis type.
The AR chassis and standard parts meet most club rules, but check local regulations on allowed motor and gear mods before competing.
Yes, the snap-fit assembly requires minimal adhesive. Paint is optional since many components are already moulded in colour.
