Bittydesign have introduced the most eagerly anticipated version of their Vision buggy body shell, that for the newly released Kyosho MP10e. The lid’s design will offer an easier to drive and more balanced feeling thanks to a mid-advanced cab, side pod and rear side flaps shape that optimises the aerodynamic characteristics. In addition a flap behind the engine area guides the air towards the rear wing for a smoother and more directed airflow around the shock tower and lower wing mount. The pre-cut body is moulded from high-quality 1mm Lexan polycarbonate, it comes with window masks, overspray protective film and a decal sheet.
Made for the Kyosho MP10 buggy are two new CVD-style centre driveshaft sets from T-Works. Available are a 82mm front and 116mm rear variant with both sets being made of high-quality steel for exceptional durability. Included with the driveshafts come steel couplers and all needed mounting hardware. In addition the joint cups are available separately as lightweight aluminium variants that weigh in at only 3.4g versus the 9.4g of the original steel parts, greatly reducing rotational masses for improved acceleration.
