Unleashing the Tamiya 58395 DB01 Durga: A New Era in Off-Road Racing
The Tamiya 58395 DB01 Durga is a testament to Tamiya’s commitment to innovation and performance in the realm of RC off-road racing. Drawing from the success of its predecessor, the TRF501X, which clinched victories at prestigious events like the European Championships, the DB01 Durga brings a refined racing experience to hobbyists worldwide.
Engineering Excellence: The DB01 Chassis
The heart of the Durga lies in its meticulously designed DB01 chassis. Centralized placement of heavy components such as the battery and motor ensures optimal weight distribution, enhancing stability and control during high-speed maneuvers. The 4WD system, derived from competitive racing models, is shielded by ABS resin covers, protecting it from dirt and debris, thus maintaining peak performance even in challenging terrains.
Advanced Suspension and Wheel System
The DB01 Durga features a robust double wishbone suspension system, echoing the configuration of the TRF501X. This setup provides a broad spectrum of tuning options, allowing racers to fine-tune their buggies for various track conditions. Additionally, the inclusion of the ITEM 51304 DB01 Dish Wheels ensures precise wheel attachment with its unique hex hub design, offering reliable performance on unpredictable off-road surfaces.
Ready for Action: Body and Components
Completing the package is a lightweight polycarbonate body with a rear wing, designed for aerodynamic efficiency and durability. While the kit includes wheels, tires, and a Type 540 motor, builders will need to source their own 2-channel transmitter, ESC, running battery, and charger to get the Durga race-ready.
