Tamiya 84100 DB01 R Tunable Racing Chassis  [84100]

Durable Race Chassis with Tuners in Mind

The Tamiya 84100 DB01 R Chassis Kit takes TRF501X concepts into a robust 1/10 package aimed at tuners and club competitors. The design focuses on predictable handling and component longevity for demanding off-road use.

How the DB01 R Improves the Platform

Once a pure competition frame, the DB01 architecture has been upgraded through multiple iterations. The DB01 R consolidates many popular options to simplify building and reduce the need for immediate hop-up purchases.

Engineering Highlights for On-Track Control

A 2-belt driven 4WD layout ensures even torque distribution while high traction arms and aeration dampers help maintain tyre contact over rough sections. The drivetrain benefits from a slipper clutch and universal shafts plus reinforced drive belts to withstand aggressive driving.

Setup Hints to Get the Best Handling

Start with medium damper oil and adjust spring tension in small steps to find the sweet spot for your surface. Keep belts clear of grit and verify clutch preload to prevent loss of efficiency and uneven wear.

The Tamiya 84100 DB01 R Chassis Kit is suited to drivers seeking a reliable, adjustable buggy that responds well to common tuning changes.
