hot rod shootout 2012

One of the most talked about subjects at the track this week has been the 2wd Buggy of Team Kyosho’s Jared Tebo. Jared is doing some testing for the team this weekend and we noticed his 2wd Buggy is completely different than what the rest of the team is running… At this time we aren’t allowed any body off shots…

MB-010 2.4Ghz BCS MP9 TKI3 MINI-Z CUP Edition 50th Anniv.

Thu, 19 Jun 2014 07:22:32 +0000

MB-010 2.4Ghz BCS MP9 TKI3 MINI-Z CUP Edition 50th Anniv.

Kyosho Mini-Z Buggy MP9 TKI3 50th Anniversary Limited Edition chassis!

Special equipment: Universal swing shafts and ball differentials front and rear, XSPEED motor, aluminum motor plate, aluminum motor heat sink, foam tire inserts, and GF main chassis are already installed!

Having earned the trust of off-road buggy fans, the Inferno MP9 has lost none of its world-class performance in its relaunch as a palmtop size racing buggy. The precision compact chassis features a shaft driven 4WD with a two-differential drive train incorporating a slipper clutch to protect gears with oil shocks on the 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension, just like a true 1/8 racing buggy. The result is the exceptional performance expected of a 1/8 off road racer, but concentrated into a racing machine that fits on the palm of your hand and the best off-road performance achieved in the history of the MINI-Z. With most of the precision components protected within the dirt-proof shell, the chassis has the rigidity and durability for hardcore off-road action. Based on the MINI-Z Racer, control circuit board has been tuned for off-road with a special separated design. The ICS function allows precision setting adjustment of controls including the optional gyro unit through your PC while the Chase Mode (requires special transmitter with 3 channels or more) feature fires up the intensity of racing action. Also, the newly designed steering servo is equipped with 7-stage gearing. High torque and precision control combine to produce the MINI-Z’s characteristic steering feel and linear control. Only a few simple steps remain for this racing buggy with the latest MINI-Z technology to start ripping up your nearest dirt track.

Passer du NIMH au Lipo sur un Kyosho DBX VE

Sun, 23 Mar 2014 19:36:48 +0000

Bonsoir,

Je possède un Kyosho DBX VE acheté d'occasion, équipé d'une batterie nimh de 4500 mA 7.2V, et j'aimerai passé au lipo 3S 5000 mA .

voici les caractéristique du véicule:

- Orion VORTEX 10 brushless motor

- Orion VORTEX R10 ESC

Ma question est simple, dans un premier temps peut on le faire sans causer de dommage au circuit notamment au variateur et au moteur, est ce que techniquement c'est faisable ? et dans un deuxième temps est ce que je vais gager en performance et en capacité de charge ?

Merci de m’éclaircir

4x2 conçu avec lazer fs2

Thu, 20 Mar 2014 22:56:04 +0000

Salut à tous

j ai un lazer fs2 avec pas mal de pièces de rechange pour en faire un 2ème.

j aurai voulu me lancer dans le 4x2 et faire comme fait x ray avec son xb4 qui prend sur chassis 4x4 pour en faire un 4x2. Serait ce réalisable avec le fs2 monté en 4x2 simplement en retirant tout ce qui est transmission avant. Vais je me prendre la tête avec la repartition des masses ou autre

merci les experts

Kyosho TF-4 Type R

Sun, 24 Jul 2011 19:59:59 +0000

Kyosho TF-4 Type R

Bien avant les actuelles TF-5 et TF-6 dans leurs différentes livrées, et encore avant la très rare et chère (mais terriblement peu fiable et inefficace...) KX-One en 2002, il y a eu la TF-4 Type R, une auto à l'architecture reprenant les grands classiques de cette époque. Cette auto, sortie en 1998 ou 1999, avait plutôt bonne presse niveau performance, fiabilité et solidité, malgré une absence relative de palmarès en compétition.

Ce modèle, pris en photo lors d'une course début 2009, avait encore de beaux restes sur la piste face à la concurrence actuelle. On voit parfois encore des Kyosho TF-2, TF-3 ou TF-4 en loisir et en course assez régulièrement.

Kyosho Ultima SC Truck

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 15:26:53 +0000

Overview

The boom of the R/C short course racing is spreading across the world and is becoming a part of some of the major races in the U.S. ROAR already has announced this class and regulations have been introduced. The Ultima SC has been designed with all of the racing performance in mind and meets all ROAR regulations. This Ready-Set (Ready to Run) is not just a backyard basher but a race ready chassis with many of the high performance traits from the Ultima RT5.

Available: January 2010

Features

* New Carbon Fiber Composite Chassis, 40mm longer than RT5

* Inpact Resistant Front, Rear and Side Bumpers

* New Scale Looking Wheels

* Newly Designed Uni Patern Tires

* Equipped With 12mm Wheel Hex Hubs

* 1mm Think High-Impact Lexan Body For Superior Durability

* Sealed Gear Box with 4pcs metal bevel gears

* Lipo Compatible ESC

* Composite Chassis - The chassis plate is 40mm longer then the RT5. Light and strong, featuring a specially formulated carbon fiber composite for the best balance of peformance and durability. Strategic braces molded into the chassis enhance the stiffness without adding any unnecessary weight. Seperate front and rear clips allow fast and easy removal of the front and rear end of the car, which makes maintenance and repair much easier. Designed to accept stick packs and 2 cell lipo packs, the RT5 chassis features an adjustable battery mounting position that allows you to shift weight bias to suit track conditions and your driving style.

* Transmission - The new transmission features a smaller, more compact housing that keeps the motor as low and close to the transmission as possible, which reduces CG and improves bump handling. The three- gear transmission features a new heavy duty SP idler gear an sealed gear box with 4pcs metal bevel gears.

* Rear Suspension - The rear suspension are symmetrical so a single replacement arm can be used on either side of the truck, saving money and space inside your pit box because you don't need to carry as many replacement parts. The inside of the arms are attached to the chassis using seperate suspension mounts, which will allow anti-squat adjustment. Vertical ball studs for the both inner and outer rod ends of the upper link means the rear suspension geometry can be fine tuned with shims.

* Front Suspension - Symmetrical suspension arms connect to a narrow front bulkhead. The bumper/skid plate, suspension block, nose plate and front bulkhead all come together to form a very rigid assembly, to which the front suspension arms mount to. The standard position of the suspension mount produces 25 degrees of hinge pin angle in the front arms, but simply flipping the suspension mount increases hinge pin angle to 30 degrees. The added flexibility of having adjustable hinge pin angles means you have more options when it comes to setting up your truck. Like the rear arms, a single replacement arm can be used on either side.

* Floating Axles - While floating axles ride in bearings that are mounted in the nub instead of the wheel, this moves the weight of the bearings inboard for extremely more responsive suspension. The bearings are under less stress, and they're better shielded from the elements.

* Steering Assembly - The steering bellcranks are mounted on the chassis at the same angle as the suspension arms. This eliminates bump steer and produces more accurate Acherman geometry throughout the entire range of steering motion. The steering plate (center link) features horizontally mounted ball studs, which mean the Acherman can be fine tuned by using shims behind the ball studs offering a nearing infinite range of adjustments.

* Captured Hing Pins - A simple button head screw captures all the outer hinge pins of the Ultima SC. The rear inner hinge pins are truly captured between the suspension mounts, and the notched inner front pins are secured with a setscrew through the front suspension mount. This means that the hing pins are much more secure and less likely to come loose.

* Shock Towers - The front shock tower is mounted as far back on the chassis as possibl y, as are the shocks, to keep the mass as low as possible. The rear shock tower is also designed to keep a low profile, yet allow enough suspension travel to ensure the best possible handling. The shock towers are molded from an exhaustively tested composite, which is much more costly to produce than shock towers made from woven graphite, but will also provide greater durability.

* Threaded Composite Shocks - The composite shock bodies feature a threaded spring pre-load collar for quick and easy adjustment. The threaded adjuster features an O-ring that prevents the preload settings from moving, which ensures consistent performance from start to finish.

* Fan Cooled 20 Turn HP Motor - High performance and longevity are the key features of the G20 motor. It has an internal cooling fan so the motor stays cool and strong from run to run.

* Reliable Perfex Radio System - Pre-installed KR6 AM. receiver and a reliable Perfex KT6 pistol grip transmitter.

* Lipo or NiMh - The Perfex ESC is compatible with either Lipo 7.4v 2cell or 8.4v NiMh (7cell).

* RT5 Compatible - Most parts are compatible with the Ultima RT5 and most RT5 optional parts.

What is a Ready Set

* A Readyset is a fully assembled model that includes nearly everything you need to run. Body Color scheme is complete so only consumables like batteries and fuel are required so you can start operating the model without delay.

Ready Set Contents:

* Pre-Assembled Chassis

* Pre-Painted Body

* Lipo Compatible ESC

* G20 Stock Motor

* Perfex KT6 Transmitter and R/C System

* Cross Wrench

Required For Operation:

* AA- Batteries x8

* 7.2v/8.4v NiMh Stick Pack (3300mAh or higher)

Kyosho RudeBits DB2

Mon, 12 Aug 2013 18:35:50 +0000

When we posted this in March 2012, people laughed about the comment ' The future is here'

Now everyone, including manufacturers are trying to copy the proven platform of the revolutionary Kyosho DB1. David Burton certainly started something. Baring in mind that no other platform similar to the DB1 has won or TQed a National event like the DB has, one could say they still need to work at it.

David Burton has raised the bar to an all new height with the new DB2.

Seen at the TORCH club this weekend, Dave Burton TQed an impressive field of talented drivers first time out with the car.

Watch this space I suppose.....due mid-September ish

Pre-orders via email for now at tony @ rudebits.net
