Yokomo DPR-MS15 RD2.0-based Mercury SAYAKA Special (S15) RTR drift car with steering gyro  [DPR-MS15]

Yokomo DPR-MS15 Mercury SAYAKA Special (S15) — ready-to-run RWD drift car built from RD2.0 roots

Off the shelf the DPR-MS15 is prepared for drifting with a painted SAYAKA S15 body and most graphics already applied, cutting setup time. The package includes a steering gyro and a 2.4GHz radio system to steady steering inputs during slides.

Mechanical layout and expected feel

By sharing over 90 percent of its parts with the RD2.0 drift platform, the DPR-MS15 offers consistent handling characteristics and straightforward maintenance. Its RWD arrangement and drivetrain choices are tuned for sustained slides, and the installed motor favours controllable spin over maximum acceleration. The steering gyro helps drivers hold angle through transitions.

Appearance and fitted bodywork

The Mercury SAYAKA Special S15 body is supplied painted, with most decals pre-attached to minimise build time. The included aero bits let the car mirror the visual detail of the source vehicle while remaining functional for drift use.

Included electronics and power choices

The RTR set ships with a 2.4GHz transceiver and a drift-specific steering gyro. A NiMH running pack and a USB quick charger are provided so the car can run soon after unpacking. The higher-turn motor is intended to make slides easier to control rather than to provide sprint performance.

Ownership considerations and upkeep

As an entry-focused package, the DPR-MS15 combines convenience with access to a broad parts pool from the RD2.0 family. Routine wear on steering and drivetrain items is expected, but replacement and upgrade options are widely available across the platform.

The DPR-MS15 is a practical turn-key drift car that pairs a faithful SAYAKA S15 body with RD2.0 serviceability and the electronics needed to begin learning controlled slides.
