Product Description

--The amazing machine that made its debut in the world match, which laid the foundation for the modern racing buggy, is back!

――The prototype that was put into the 2nd Electric Off-Road Car World Championship held in the United Kingdom in 1987 made a brilliant debut, occupying 5 out of 10 final A main cars and winning second place.
――While taking advantage of Optima's undercarriage, which gained popularity due to its sophisticated design, the chassis layout with the motor placed in the midship laid the foundation for modern racing buggies.
--The Optima Mid is reprinted as the 10th vintage series.
--The main chassis uses 6016T6 aluminum alloy to ensure rigidity.
-Each part has been updated according to the modern power system, such as adopting 48 pitch gears to improve drive efficiency and enable fine gear ratio setting.
――In addition, it is possible to adjust the tension of the belt with a belt tensioner, which was not available at that time, and realized smooth drive without loss.
--Furthermore, we have partially incorporated the equipment of Turbo Optima Mid, which was a high-end model at that time, such as FRP front and rear shock stays and a main chassis with countersunk holes.
-Of course, the body design faithfully reproduces the original, and the leshy form is reproduced.
--Optima Mid, which is fully featured in the popular vintage series.
――Please experience the driving that still does not fade due to the state-of-the-art mechanism at that time.

[feature]
--The 10th memorable model of the Kyosho vintage series. The popular 4WD buggy that made a brilliant debut at the world championship has been updated in a modern style.

--Belt type 4WD system with excellent drive efficiency. It realizes stable driving even on roads with low grip, and demonstrates high driving performance even on modern circuits.
-Adopts a 48-pitch pinion and spur gear. The 82T spur gear that is the same as the existing Ultima RB7 is adopted, and 78T / 80T spur gear can be installed as an option.
--Reinforced slippers that are compatible with powerful brushless motors-Equipped with a clutch. You can also change the settings by replacing it with a slipper seat for Ultima RB.
-Equipped with a holder that can handle various batteries. The battery is fixed with a hook-and-loop fastener with the KYOSHO logo.
--The newly designed wheels that reproduce the original design are equipped with the same tires as the reprinted Turbo Optima. Sufficient grip is secured.
--The reinforced nylon rear wing, which has moderate flexibility and strength, is the same as the previously reprinted Javelin. The setting can be changed by adjusting the mounting angle in 3 steps.
――The box package is also a blister pack specification with the image of the original, increasing the satisfaction when owning.
――Tune-up is possible with abundant optional parts. It goes beyond the framework of a mere reprint model and can be enjoyed as an active model.
