DB01 Slipper Upgrade from Tamiya 54018

The Tamiya 54018 Slipper Clutch Set bolsters the DB01 chassis by adding a reliable slip system that soaks up impacts and helps preserve transmission parts. Built for aggressive off-road use, it smooths acceleration and reduces shock loads on gears during launches and landings.

Benefits and Tuning Options

Transmission Guard: The slipper cushions sudden torque spikes to minimise gear wear during hard runs and rough sections.
Spring Tension Adjustment: Turn the spring tension to tune the slip point and match acceleration to your tyre grip and track layout.
Off-Road Durability: Produced to stand up to jumps and rutted tracks for more consistent performance lap after lap.

Can I fit the Tamiya 54018 to other DB01 variants?

This slipper is made for DB01 layouts; it installs into the standard DB01 transmission assembly but check chassis variations before fitting to modded frames.

What effect does the slipper have on wheelspin?

Setting a softer spring reduces sudden torque transfer, which can cut wheelspin on loose dirt and improve traction out of corners.

Do I need special tools to adjust the spring?

Basic hand tools are enough to change spring tension and service the slipper; a small spanner and a clean workspace will do for routine tuning.
