Tamiya 58726 XV-02RS PRO Chassis

The XV-02 RS chassis is an on-road variant of the rally XV-02 platform. The kit is mainly oriented for on-road, and features updates such as dedicated 3.5mm thick carbon fiber damper stays, aluminum-cylinder oil dampers employing shaft length suited for on-road performance, and carbon fiber-reinforced rigid lower chassis.
On-Road Oriented Rally Chassis!
This 4WD touring chassis assembly kit features a front midship motor and transmits power from the spur gear in the center via identical length front and rear propeller shafts, and is ideally setup for on-road running. 39T differential gears front and rear, and one setup option 40T differential gear are included, facilitating changes to drive balance. It features optimum balance and a slim chassis with carbon fiber-reinforced rigid lower deck. The 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension has dedicated aluminum-cylinder oil dampers.
Key Features:
Features aluminum-cylinder oil dampers employing shaft length suited for on-road performance and dedicated 3.5mm thick carbon fiber damper stays, and carbon fiber-reinforced rigid lower chassis.
18-spoke wheels are paired with racing semi-slick tires.
Equipped with front midship motor plus identical length front and rear long propeller shafts.
Comes with two 39T differential gears and one 40T differential gear for adjustment of front and rear drive balance.
Use 39T gears (w/15T gears) on the front and rear for standard drive balance, 39T gear (w/15T gear) on the front and 40T gear (w/15T gear) on the rear for drive balance bias to front and vice-versa for drive balance bias to rear. *Use the latter two with slipper clutch and center differential.
A longitudinal battery pack is positioned in the center-left for optimum balance.
The flat chassis bottom and skid angle on the front bumper further contribute to limit surface contact under driving conditions.
Caster blocks feature an angle of six degrees.
Includes front and rear universal drive shafts, and an aluminum servo mount.
