Kyosho Ultima RB7 1/10th 2WD off-road buggy kit
Kyosho have released first information and images of their forthcoming Ultima RB7 1/10th 2WD buggy kit. The buggy builds on a newly developed 7075 aluminium chassis that is 4mm shorter than the previous RB6 main plate for improved cornering and optimised flex characteristics. Also new is the front suspension with gullwing-type front arms for more accurate damping while improved front knuckles and hubs with updated Ackermann locations and reinforcements ensure a proper front end geometry and better durability. Multi-configuration arms with bushings for long and short settings can be found on the rear as can be alloy rear suspension mounts. Other features include a lowered carbon-reinforced front shock stay, a new wing mount, an updated centre mount as well as shorter spring cups for high-grip surfaces that require the running of very low ride heights while plastic shock caps help to settle the buggy on bumpy surfaces. Last but not least are ring-captured universal swing shafts, and a newly-designed body shell and wing.
