In august 1983, simply half per year after its very first, another Kyosho device blew its well-versed rivals away through the entire fifth JMRCA 1/12 Electrical Racing automobile Japan Nationals, held at an especially built track at Nakayama Racecourse Chiba Prefecture. RC on-road racing wound up being changed for a generation by the 1/8 FANTOM 20 EXP 4WD engine racing vehicle, as well as its bloodlines went strong inside FANTOM EP 4WD. The FANTOM EP 4WD revives its glory days whilst the first on-road battle model and 9th addition towards Kyosho Vintage Series!
The 1/12 on-road rushing scene of the time framework showcased plenty of designs particularly 3-point suspension system system system and 4-wheel separate suspension system system, 4WD ladder-chain drive + forward one-way bearing system that typically didn’t create front drive but drove the inside wheel whenever power had been applied through turns for stable cornering and minimal drive loss. The FANTOM EP 4WD pioneered specifications just like the FRP framework that created a suspension effect that delivered optimal fat security internally wheel. The 2020 variation model not just recreates the look and feel of initial, and keeps the superior cornering price and security, also on low hold areas, using its part-time 4WD and front an ideal way. As with every Vintage Series models, each key component is in line with the initial design but ended up being improved to manage the most recent power sources and deliver the FANTOM’s distinctive razor-sharp administration and control on modern RC circuits.
Experience superior driving due to the nostalgic avant-garde design and functional beauty associated with 1/12 scale FANTOM EP 4WD!
The planet's first electric automobile to make use of a ladder chain drive and front part one-way bearing. The technical meal has also been machined with a mounting opening by which a Kyosho LeMans 240S price controller (No: 37051, offered individually) might be setup in place of a rotary rate controller. Reproducing the main element power and satisfaction with this initial Le Mans 480T, the Le Mans 480T Brushless motor (No.37033) with long shaft to suit the Fantom can be obtained instead.
Kit includes the BW Spider body that delivered triumph on first at Japan Nationals in 1983 which is comprised of brief nose design and exceptional aerodynamic stability creating high downforce for quick steering characteristics. Wing (No.EFW001) generally speaking available as a choice.
To carry out the increased power of modern engines, the very first resin front side sprocket is changed to a built-in unit cut metal one-way bearing owner for superior durability and reliability through drive system.
Precision CNC machined motor mount is difficult anodized in white (clear). Minimal center of gravity is accomplished through less motor mounting destination that fits compared to the device cut engine mount, which has been an optional update during the time of the 1st Fantom.
The trunk axle comes with a height adjuster. Chassis height is modified 1.3mm up-down by reversing the mounting method. Moreover, the wheelbase may be changed 1mm by swapping the remaining and right adjusters, therefore permitting modification of sequence anxiety.
Designed with a 48-pitch gear differential integrating ball bearing that delivers smooth operation, despite the medial side force of the initial works-spec.
Stamped FRP components have actually actually all been upgraded to CNC cutting. Independent servo saver mount meal within subsequent models typically included as standard. Change of human anatomy mount with grommet screws about the radio meal enables framework flex become employed in combination with 4WD for razor-sharp cornering performance. A big component axle can get freely, as part of Kyosho models considering that the Plazma.
Complete bearing demands. The screw makes use of a hex kind which can be firmly tightened. Includes wheel hub and wrench for diff modification.
The kit includes one couple of pre-glued tires so a tire setter is not needed. Original sponge tires happen changed with plastic sponge for significantly improved hold and opposition to put on. Tires happen changed towards the modern super tough nylon for increased durability
