I have the Baldre. The quality and construction is excellent. The problem here in the states is that the kit is too expensive for a basic car. They say it is good for "club racing", but the upgrades needed make it pointless when you can buy a world champion chassis like the B44. The new DB01R is nice, but again a waste of money. The DB01R is roughly what the standard DB01 should have been to begin with. If you can get the Durga/Baldre for $175 shipped then it is worth it.
I agree for the most part fo your comments, I own a fully done up db01 and have put in lots of money.
But you must realise that this is one of the best budget cars out there, given the upgardes yes it could cost more than the B44, but theres big differences. Db01 uses stick packs not saddle. I.e intended for Mainstream market. I would assume that tamiya sell mroe DB01's than AE sellign B44's. Just a different market.
Over here in the US you could get a Hot Bodies Ve8 which is 8th scale and uses stick packs. The DB01 already costs like $200 here, now add double slippers, TRF shocks, CVDs etc and you're already approaching the price of a fully hopped up Ve8 and it's still 10th scale. I know which one I'd rather have.
right now you can get the baldre shipped from tower for 174.00 shipped if your a clud member the durga is 207.00(whats up with that ?) so I bought a durga(liked the decals better) and some HPI super nitro RS4 star wheels n slick tires to run it on the road and dirt drifting, I'll post a vid as soon as I get it n built on wednesday !(or probobally tuesday cause UPS comes aftr 2:00pm) I agree on your comments also about the DB01 and hop ups !!
Yeah.. Tamiya really outdid themselves with the DB01. It's an awesome chassis. Throw on 501x shocks, a slipper and some aluminum suspension mounts and it gets well beyond awesome.

@ SpiralSweep Look, you can "slo-mo" it wether with an program (speed 0.2x for example, but that's very slow) or you buy a
camera wich can receive 60 (for speed 0.5x)
or more fps - then you get the vid in slo-mo
directly. Sorry for the bad English - i'm german!

Nice movie! Which program do u use for the slomo's?

@Shockolade It's not about program. You need hi-speed cam (high fps) and then just play it slowly.

I see your point. But, I disagree. It is easy to get saddle NiMh packs now without having to build anything.
The DB01 is more of a entry level/club racer. Tamiya already acknowledged this issue by releasing the DB01R.
