Tamiya Dash-01 Super Emperor Summary

The Tamiya Dash-01 Super Emperor revives a familiar Mini 4WD form while fitting it to the MS chassis platform. It delivers classic lines with a frame that supports sensible performance upgrades for competitive model racers.

Iconic Buggy Silhouette

Reflecting the original off-road buggy theme, the Dash-01 Super Emperor retains its recognisable outline in finely formed plastic. Builders can modify the rear windshield area to reduce weight and shave fractions from lap times.

MS Chassis Benefits

The MS chassis is a modular, stable solution that accepts double-shaft motors and many popular upgrade parts. Its straightforward layout makes it easy to experiment with setups and parts to match track characteristics.

Key Customisation Routes

  • Motors: Pick a motor to prioritise either acceleration or sustained speed depending on your circuit.
  • Tires: Swap tyre types and compounds to match surface traction.
  • Gears: Select gear sets to fine tune acceleration and top end.
  • Dampers: Consider adding dampers to control body movement on rough sections.

Applying these upgrades will let the Dash-01 Super Emperor be competitive on a broad range of track formats, from technical to faster layouts.

Assembly and Use

Designed as a snap-fit kit, assembly is quick with no glue needed, making it welcoming for newcomers. Seasoned tuners will find the layout easy to access for part replacement and detailed setup work.

Clean debris from gears and rollers, check for worn tyres and inspect the motor bearings. Re-tighten any fasteners and ensure the body tabs are intact.
Prioritise tyres and a well matched motor, then refine gear ratios and rollers. Small changes to weight distribution often yield noticeable improvements.
Painting is optional since parts are molded in colour. If you want a custom finish, use hobby paints suitable for polystyrene and mask carefully to preserve fitment.
Yes. The MS chassis accepts many standard Grade-Up Parts for rollers, stabilisers and gear sets, making it easy to personalise performance and handling.
