KM Racing V-One RRR Upper decks

KM Racing have released two new optional upper decks for the Kyosho V-One RRR 1/10th scale chassis. Made from carbon fibre, both feature a hexagonal counter bore design for locking the car’s fifth body post and both are supplied with a pair of fuel tank o-rings. The difference between the 2 is that one allows for the standard upright mounting of the throttle servo, while the 2nd enables it to be mounted in the lay down position for a lower centre of gravity.
