Product Description
──The fast 2WD racer that raced down the royal roads of 1/12 on-road cars is back!
- A re-release of the Plasma Mk.3 Limited, which was sold in 1987.
- The upper plate, which was made of FRP in 1987, has been updated to CNC machined carbon.
- Furthermore, the front and rear joint bars that hold the T-bar are also made of carbon.
- In the 1980s, 1/12 scale on-road cars were the star category in electric R/C car racing, and the Phantom EP-4WD series of four-wheel drive models sold by Kyosho was overwhelmingly dominant during this era.
- But the Phantom had some strong rivals.
- This was the rear two-wheel drive Plasma series released by the same Kyosho.
- The Plasma Mk III Limited, the final and ultimate model of the 1980s Plasma series, is being revived more than 30 years after its release in 1987!
- Like other Kyosho vintage series models, this latest reproduction model faithfully reproduces the original design, while being improved to be compatible with modern R/C mechanisms and power sources, allowing you to enjoy driving it to your heart's content as a current model.
- While using the same components as the Phantom EP-4WD Ext, the simpler structure has made the body lighter, and on circuits with sufficient road grip, it can achieve speeds that exceed even the Phantom.
- The main chassis is made from the same carbon fibre as the original, and the upper plate and A-bar holding joint bar, which were made from black FRP on the original, are now made from carbon fibre.
- The differential unit equipped on the rear axle is a ball differential that was first installed on the Phantom EP-4WD Ext Kyosho 60th Anniversary Model, which will be sold in 2023, transforming the machine into a more luxurious and high-performance machine.
- The front suspension is a simple kingpin spring with adjustable caster angle.
- In addition, the reissue comes with two kingpins with slightly different outer diameters, allowing you to fine-tune controllability.
- The body is a reproduction of the aerodynamic open cockpit type α-2, and the new Plasma MkIII Limited will create a new sensation in the Kyosho Vintage Series.
- The long-awaited revival of the 1/12 scale rear 2WD racer with its nimble running style in the 16th installment of the Kyosho Vintage Series
- Reproduces the limited edition race-only model released in 1987
- While keeping the original 1987 model design, each part has been updated to match modern R/C mechanics and power sources.
- 3-point suspension system is standard and highly reliable for 1/12 EP racers
- Highly rigid carbon main chassis and upper plate are equipped with an FRP rear A-bar that provides moderate flexibility to improve tire grip.
- Kingpin spring front suspension that allows you to change the handling feel
- Dial-type rear oil damper for easy spring tension adjustment
- Uses a ball differential that allows you to adjust the effectiveness by tightening the nut
- Lightweight and high-strength φ6 carbon rear shaft is standard equipment
- Assembled chassis kit includes pre-glued front and rear tires and unpainted body
