The Tamiya 84100 DB01 R Chassis Kit applies lessons from the TRF501X to a durable 1/10 scale package. It offers a practical mix of competition geometry and tough components for club racing and weekend track sessions.
The DB01 series began as a track-focused platform and has evolved through user feedback and hop-up parts. The DB01 R brings together a large portion of those popular upgrades, delivering a chassis that makes tuning straightforward and cost effective.
The model uses a balanced 2-belt 4WD system to distribute torque evenly, and its suspension employs high traction arms and aeration dampers plus aluminium suspension mounts to improve cornering. The reinforced drives, including a slipper clutch and universal shafts, add durability for repeated high-load runs.
Small changes to damper oil and spring rate can notably alter handling, so test incrementally on your track. Regularly check universal joints and belt alignment to prevent premature wear and keep lap times consistent.
Tamiya 84100 DB01 R Chassis Kit is a solid choice for racers and hobbyists who want a tunable, competition-ready buggy that accepts common upgrades.
