Kyosho Lazer ZX-5 SP buggy

Kyosho have released (coming in November) their new Lazer ZX-5 SP, 1/10th EP 4wd buggy, which was first seen in the hands of team drivers competing in last months IFMAR World Championships. The car’s newly designed suspension shows superior turning performance at different speeds and on a variety of different surface types while the advanced aerodynamics of the body also generates effective down-force to keep the machine anchored to the surface. With a rear midship mounted motor, the simple transmission and battery layout achieves optimal weight balance for greater control response. Easy control of the machine’s airborne posture marks it as an advanced racing buggy.
