1/32 JR Mini 4WD DCR-02 (MA Chassis)

The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: Futuristic Customization at Your Fingertips! The DCR-02 is the second evolution in the "Deeply Cool Racer" series, designed by legendary Japanese designer Takayuki Yamazaki. What sets this machine apart is its unique three-part body design, which includes a front cowl, rear cowl, and rear wing. At Hobby Hideaway, we love this kit for its sheer versatility—the body parts are designed to be mixed and matched with other DCR-02 kits and even its predecessor, the DCR-01, allowing you to create a one-of-a-kind look without any custom cutting.

The Ultra-Efficient MA Chassis Built on the MA (Midship Aero) Chassis, the DCR-02 is a competitive powerhouse. By housing a dual-shaft motor in the center of a one-piece monocoque frame, it achieves incredible aerodynamic efficiency and balance. This chassis is designed for speed and ease of maintenance, featuring integrated side stays and a streamlined underside that makes it a top choice for both beginner builders and veteran racers.

Key Features & Technical Specs:

• Modular Body System: Futuristic 3-part yellow body shell (front cowl, rear cowl, and wing) that can be swapped for different color combinations.

• MA Chassis Layout: Midship motor placement with a single-piece frame for superior rigidity and airflow.

• Performance Drivetrain: Includes a Type 130 double-shaft motor and a 3.5:1 high-speed gear ratio.

• Race-Ready Wheels: Equipped with gunmetal Y-spoke wheels and low-profile black tires.

• Complete Hardware: Comes with 6 low-friction rollers and a rear skid bar to maintain stability through technical sections.

Hobby Hideaway Pro Tip: The real magic of the DCR-02 is in the "mix and match" system. If you have a DCR-01, try swapping the front cowl onto this chassis to change your car's weight distribution and aerodynamic profile. Because the MA chassis is very rigid, it can sometimes bounce on harsh landings; we recommend adding a Side Mass Damper Set to the integrated side stays to help keep the car pinned to the track during high-speed jumps at our Orleans track!
