Coming soon from Kyosho is the Outlaw Rampage Pro ReadySet 2WD truck. With a chassis designed from the ground up, the vehicle features a double wishbone suspension on the front with a link system in the rear in combination with the long stroke high-volume shocks to deliver a standard of performance worthy of a 2WD trophy truck.

Kyosho have announced the soon release of their new Fazer FZ02 Mk2 semi-assembled 4WD electric touring car kit.

Included in the kit come optionals such as an aluminium centre driveshaft, front aluminium and steel CV-style driveshafts as well as a transponder mount and multi-functional body mounts that allow to utilise a wide range of body shell shapes. Also part of the package are an aluminium motor spacer for improved heat dissipation, oil-filled shock absorbers as well as wheel hubs for 190mm or 200mm width settings. The kit comes “dry”, meaning drivers can choose their own diff and damper oils and it will hit stores in May.

BF Materials MP10/MP9 connector & transponder mount

Coming from BF Materials is a clever connector and transponder mount for the Kyosho Inferno MP10 and MP9 series of vehicles. Designed for the use with universal-style receiver connectors and MyLaps RC4 transponders, the integrated mount allows for secure car operation as the connector holder prevents the receiver battery plug from becoming unplugged during use while the transponder is securely fastened in the same area. The locked design keeps all parts in place, however the plug and transponder can be removed easily when needed. Made of tough nylon plastics the mount attaches to the original transponder mounting plate using four M3 screws, ensuring a nice and tidy setup.

Bittydesign Vision MP10 pre-cut buggy body shell

Bittydesign have introduced their all-new Vision 1/8th nitro buggy body shell for the Kyosho MP10 buggy. Due to its design the body will offer an easier to drive and more balanced feeling compared to the MP10 kit body thanks to a new cabin, side pod and rear side flaps design that optimises the aerodynamic characteristics. In addition, a flap behind the engine area guides the air towards the rear wing for a smoother and more directed airflow around the shock tower and lower wing mount. The body comes moulded from high-quality 1mm Lexan polycarbonate and it is laser pre-cut to fit the Inferno MP10 buggy. Included comes a pre-cut decal sheet as well as window masks.
