Tamiya FF-03 PRO

It's been about ten years since Tamiya released the FF-02, and this summer they'll be releasing their long awaited update: the FF-03. Here's a closer look at their high end version, the FF-03 PRO.

Both the standard FF-03 and Pro utilize a narrow chassis with the battery running vertically down the center of the chassis, and the motor is mounted in front of the axles which helps prevent understeer. An inboard front suspension is standard equipment, and, depending on which rear block you install, you have three different wheelbases to choose from: 233, 245, and 257 mm.



The PRO kit, however, includes TRF dampers, a blue aluminum motor mount, an aluminum servo horn and high torque servo saver, and blue aluminum turnbuckles.



The FF-03 PRO kit is scheduled to ship at the end of the month, and the standard FF-03 will be shipping in early July, with street prices of around $220 and $195 respectively.
