Tamiya 54018 Slipper Clutch for DB01 Chassis

The Tamiya 54018 Slipper Clutch Set upgrades the DB01 gearbox with a slip mechanism that soaks up sudden torque and helps prevent stripped gears. It is tuned to cope with heavy landings and abrasive surfaces so your buggy stays on the circuit longer.

Tuning and Advantage Points

Gear Impact Reduction: The slipper cushions driveline shocks to lower the chance of damaged gears during heavy impacts.
Variable Slip Settings: Alter the spring preload to control how and when the clutch slips, matching it to your motor and tyre setup.
Durability for Jumps: Engineered for repetitive jumps and hard packs to keep handling predictable under stress.

Does Tamiya 54018 affect acceleration feel?

Yes, the slipper smooths out power delivery so launches feel less abrupt, which can improve traction especially on loose or sandy surfaces.

How do I choose spring tension?

Start with a medium setting and adjust by testing: softer for more slip and less wheel hop, stiffer for sharper throttle response on high grip tracks.

Can I service it trackside?

Basic cleaning and spring adjustment can be done at the track with hand tools; for full rebuilds, use a clean bench and proper spares.
