Xpress mini 1:10 RC cars are the latest craze in Malaysia... The dimension is the same as Tamiya M-chassis but Xpress car is 4WD whereas Tamiya M-chassis is only 2WD driving either the front or the rear... Xpress came out with 2 types of kit, the pro kit and the junior kit... The main differences between these 2 kits are pro kit uses carbon fiber lower and upper deck whereas junior kit uses fiber reinforced plastic (FRP)... Besides that, pro kit uses aluminum front and rear bulkhead and knuckle... As for junior kit, it uses more cost effective material which is plastic...


This is the Xpress MRR2 Pro Kit V2.1... The is the new version... The placement of the servo is different and the design of the upperdeck is different as well... By using this design, Xpress engineer is able to lower the centre of gravity of the whole car... Besides that, the weight distribution is also more balance in V2.1...

This is the junior kit...

The pro kit is currently retailing at RM899... By looking at the price it is indeed a very good buy because you don't have to hop it up anymore... Junior kit is retailing at RM499... This is really cheap comparing it to Tamiya M-chassis... No wonder it is so popular nowadays... But in my opinion, if you have the money, is better to go for the pro kit... If you thinking of buying the junior kit and hop it up yourself, better don't... The reason for this is it will cause a lot more compare to pro kit...

Completed chassis in silver carbon fiber...

If you like your chassis all bling up, these conversion will definitely suits you nicely... Other than that, by using carbon fiber chassis, your car will be more rigid and it is good for handling... You can actually use this chassis conversion on the new chassis that Tamiya is going to release call DF03RA which is meant for rallying...

Just like DB01 Baldre, Tamiya DF03 Keen Hawk is exactly the same as DF03 Dark Impact except for the bodyshell...

DB01 optional hop up part... Slipper clutch... The benefit of slipper clutch is to control the application of power on low traction off road surfaces... Controlled and adjustable spinning of the slipper clutch instead of excessive wheel spin gives more control and better acceleration...

Optional front one way...

Optional universal joint...

Actually DB01 Baldre is exactly the same as DB01 Durga except for the bodyshell... The design of the bodyshell is different so it depends on individual preference... But in my opinion I prefer the Durga over Baldre although Baldre is the newer one...
