Kyosho Inferno Neo ST Race Spec 2.0 RTR
Kyosho have introduced the new Inferno Neo ST Race Spec 2.0 ReadySet nitro truggy. Having World and National Championship origins the truck builds on a foundation that benefits from more than a decade of development and refinement. The channeled aluminium chassis is made from stronger, more durable alloy, it features moulded chassis braces, and the bulkheads and suspension arms are taken right from the ST-RR Evo racing kit. Front, centre and rear differentials transfer power to the wheels via a strong shaft drive system with ultra-smooth front universal driveshafts and a double disc brake system provides ample stopping power.
Moulded composite big-bore shocks are fitted with distinctive bronze anodised shock caps and threaded spring pre-load adjusters and the aluminium shock towers are fitted with steel upper shock mounts. The shocks are fully adjustable and they fit a wide range of optional performance racing springs developed for the ST-RR Evo truck. Front and rear anti-roll bars are also standard, as are turnbuckle tie-rods and upper suspension links for quick and precise adjustment.
The truck is powered by a Kyosho KE25 engine, which is in its second generation. It is refined to include a stronger conrod for increased longevity, and the internals of the pullstarter have been tweaked for more reliable and easy starting. The pullstarter is unique in that it doesn’t have a one-way bearing that can wear out. Once the engine is started, the pullstarter is completely disengaged. That means that no power is being lost and there’s no hardware needlessly spinning along with the essential engine components. A polished aluminium header and tuned pipe mounted directly to the industry-standard rear exhaust port.
The radio gear is new to the Neo ST 2.0, featuring the KT-331P 2.4 GHz radio with an LCD display and full range of menu driven adjustments. Metal gear KS-5031-09MW water-proof servos are fitted for throttle and steering. The layout of the radio gear in the Neo ST 2.0 is also significantly different, using the IGW051 Battery Forward Conversion Set, the receiver battery and radio gear is moved as far forward as possible for more forward weight bias to enhance steering response. Last but not least, the Neo ST 2.0 sports a new livery featuring the Unique Energy Drink logos on a striking silver, black and bright red paint scheme.
