Kyosho Speed House Torx 10 brushless motors

Kyosho have announced the soon release of their all-new Speed House Torx 10 540-size brushless motors. The sensored motors were developed for high-performance competition use, offering high efficiency, a low weight and exceptional heat dissipation thanks to a highly machined case. Sturdy heavy-duty solder tabs and a rearward-facing sensor port round out the package. The 5.5T to 10.5T modified motors will come equipped with a 5.0×12.3×24.0mm rotor while the 13.5T to 21.5T stock motors are tuned using a 5.0×12.5×24.2mm rotor.

Kyosho MP10T hard composite lower arms

Kyosho have introduced their new hard composite lower arms for the MP10T 1/8th scale truggy. Moulded from a harder-than-stock material the arms come in handy especially when running in high ambient temperatures or when racing in high to very high bite track conditions. Using the harder arms results in more precise handling as they do not flex as much as the standard kit arms, however they can take away some overall traction and stability in colder conditions. The arms come as separate pairs for the front and the rear of the truck.

Kyosho Ultima RB7 brass balance weights

Kyosho have announced the soon release of two new balance weights for the Ultima RB7 buggies. First up is the 28g LDW rear weight that was designed to be mounted under the lowdown gearbox of the RB7 and RB7SS kits. Using the part will shift the weight balance toward the rear, increasing rear traction when running in low to high-grip track conditions. Also coming soon is the 32g battery weight that will slide under the battery, upping the overall weight when using standard or LCG shorty battery packs. The higher weight comes in handy in a variety of track conditions as it can calm down the ride over bumpy parts of a track while countering traction rolling on high-bite surfaces. The weight comes laser-engraved for easy identification and it is usable with both the RB7 and RB7SS.

Kyosho Fazer Mk2 Alpine GT4 ReadySet

Kyosho have introduced their new Fazer Mk2 Alpine GT4 ReadySet 1/10th 4WD on-road ready-to-run set. Kyosho has taken its standard touring car chassis and given it a full model makeover that has evolved performance to a new level. A simplified design with fewer parts has improved maintenance efficiency and reduced weight while core strength and rigidity has been increased through new materials, ribbing and stiffeners on front and rear. In addition, the symmetrical chassis design makes for excellent front-rear balance and a responsive car control. Featuring a slipper clutch, front and rear gear differentials, oil shocks and full ball bearings, the high durability and impact resistance allows drivers to unleash the full potential of the chassis. Brake disc wheel hubs with two different offsets of 0mm and +5mm provide compatibility with 190mm and 200mm width body styles and allows the wheelbase to be adjusted to 274mm by replacing only a handful of optional parts for compatibility with other 1/10 scale body styles, in addition the body included. The ReadySet package comes fully assembled and includes everything except charger and battery for the chassis, and batteries for the transmitter. The set is completed by an Ultra Scale Body Alpine GT4 lid.
