Tamiya 95164 Mach Frame Silver Metallic. (FM-A)

[Split-body machine that won an award of excellence]

This is a plastic model assembly kit of a high-performance racer that uses shaft drive four-wheel drive.

The Mach Frame is a machine that won the Excellence Award at the Mini 4WD Design Contest 2018.

The mechanical form made up of multiple surfaces is impressive.

The white ABS resin body has a sharp finish that incorporates many motorcycle designs, but the overall silhouette resembles that of an aircraft.

The playful assembly of attaching the three-part exterior parts to the parts that will become the frame is also noteworthy.

[Adopts FM-A chassis with front motor layout]

The chassis uses FM-A with a front motor layout that incorporates aero design.

Since the center of gravity is closer to the front of the vehicle, you can ride with a sense of stability even on courses with many ups and downs.

A low-friction resin skid bar is standard equipment at the bottom of the front, and the four rollers are also made of low-friction resin.

In particular, the rear roller is an 8 mm thick type that increases stability.

Furthermore, the motor can be easily replaced from the bottom of the chassis, making settings changes quick.

Various parts can be attached to the aero side stay, which is inspired by the cross-sectional shape of an airplane wing.

The chassis body is made of metallic gray ABS resin, and the A parts such as the under panel and skid bar are made of low-friction resin in black color.

In addition, small-diameter super hard low-height tires are installed on the white A-spoke wheels.

Gear ratio is set to 3.5:1.
