The Tamiya MB-01 Chassis Kit is a fresh addition to the popular M-chassis series, known for its fun and adaptability. This 1/10 scale chassis builds upon the success of its predecessors, offering even more options for customisation. With the ability to choose from three different wheelbases and either a front- or rear-wheel-drive system, the MB-01 allows for six unique setups to match your driving style. The kit includes the classic and iconic Mini Cooper Racing body, which arrives unpainted, ready for your personal touch. This gives you the freedom to choose your own colours and create a truly unique car.

The MB-01 chassis is designed to be user-friendly, making it easy to assemble and maintain. This "Essentials Builder Bundle" makes getting started even simpler. We've included all the core electronics you need to complete the build. You get a FlySky 2-channel radio system, a strong Power HD 13kg waterproof servo for steering, and a Tornado 3600mAh NiMH battery with a G.T. Power charger. We even include the 8 AA batteries for the transmitter. All you need to finish is a weekend for the build, some assembly tools, and your choice of polycarbonate paint!

Compact Design

The MB-01 chassis is built with performance and customisability in mind. The MB-01 has a highly adjustable platform that's perfect for a variety of driving styles and can be adjusted to a wide range of wheelbase options, 209mm for short, 224mm for medium, and 239mm for long. 
Additionally, you can set this versatile chassis up in a front wheel drive or rear wheel drive setting, making the MB-01 one of the most customisable machines!

Three Section Steering System

The three-section steering system, operated by a long link rod connected to a rear-mounted servo, provides precise and responsive steering control for confident handling on a wide range of terrains.

Double Wishbone Suspension

The double wishbone suspension, with its symmetrical suspension arms, provides balanced handling and predictable performance. This design ensures consistent response and control, allowing you to hit the apex everything time.

Easy Maintenance

Maintenance is a breeze thanks to the MB-01's unitised motor mount. Secured with just two screws, it allows for quick and easy access to the motor for adjustments or upgrades.

Centre Motor Mounting

The rear left mounted motor delivers power directly to the rear wheels via a driveshaft, providing a classic rear-wheel-drive driving experience with fast and responsive acceleration and exciting handling. 
Additionally, this central motor mounting position creates better weight bias.

TT-02 Differentials

The MB-01 chassis utilises the same durable 4-bevel differential gear as the TT-02 chassis, making access to replacement parts much easier.  For those seeking further customisation, the differential can be upgraded with optional TT-02 ball differentials or oil-filled gear differentials.

Quick Battery Swaps

Designed for hassle-free battery replacement, the MB-01 features an innovative flip-up battery holder. This clever design allows you to quickly swap out batteries without any fuss, keeping the action going.
