Carbon Lower Deck Optimised for Track

The Tamiya 49385 - TRF415MSX lower deck/stick is cut from 2.5mm carbon to keep mass low while increasing chassis stiffness for crisper cornering. A matching carbon upper deck and a strengthened rear bulkhead are supplied to help retain stability at higher speeds.

Battery Placement for Even Weight

The battery plate is designed to accept a 7.2V racing pack and secures it to reduce slop during aggressive cornering. Proper pack location helps front to rear balance and more predictable handling through a lap.

Durable Aluminium Centre Post

An aluminium centre post is included to give a stronger joining point between decks and reduce flex where it matters most. This layout suits racers who need repeatable handling and longer component life.

Yes, this part is a direct upgrade for the TRF415MSX lower deck layout and replaces the factory plate to give higher stiffness and reduced weight.
No additional plates are normally required for common 7.2V racing packs; the kit includes a battery plate sized for standard pack dimensions. Check pack width against the plate before final assembly.
Increasing chassis stiffness can make the car respond quicker to inputs. Expect a firmer feel and plan small setup adjustments to dampers and camber to regain balance.
Wipe the surfaces clean after each session and check mounting holes for wear. If screws start to loosen, apply thread lock sparingly to steel-to-carbon interfaces.
