Kyosho 1/10 Tomahawk EP 2WD Electric Off Road RC Buggy Kit
$475.79
Updated with modern R/C technology, the Spartan design of this pure racing buggy proves its race credentials!
Based on the solid foundation of the Scorpion, the Tomahawk was modified and launched as a pure racing vehicle. On its release, the Tomahawk swept challengers away from Japan and around the world to create a legend that is still remembered by many R/C racers today. In response to many requests from R/C fans, Kyosho is proud to add the Tomahawk as the 3rd Immortal model in the Vintage Series. Incorporating metal parts from the 2014 Scorpion such as the 6061T6 aluminium main frame chassis, forged suspension arms, 2-piece aluminium diecast gearbox with built-in diff gears, the Tomahawk will always be a pure racing machine with its characteristic Spartan double deck. The new Tomahawk is not simply a reproduction of the original machine. Each key component has updated with modern R/C racing technology and power source to produce superior circuit performance. Many will appreciate its nostalgic style, but eliminating the radio box to reduce weight and side mounting of the battery for optimal weight distribution sharpens the edge of the Tomahawk for the pure enjoyment of true racing performance.
Features pre-cut polycarbonate body made from the original Tomahawk body mould. Kit includes driver figure with dust cover.
Basic chassis structure and materials are consistent with the Scorpion, but the removal of radio box reduces weight by 80g.
Recreates the Tomahawk’s characteristic double-deck radio system mounting. Black FRP upper deck stay updated with inflexible structure.
Servo mounting now secured with a screw system for more accuracy and control. (Servo on the original model was fixed with double side tape and nylon band.)
Front of lower deck on the original model was secured with nylon band. The new model is fixed with a resin clamp to increase chassis rigidity.
Roof light bucket creates scale look and feel, including the light guard that was not included in original model.
Features red anodised aluminium cylinders like the original model with oil shocks and strong stainless steel suspension shafts.
Combination of nylon and sintered alloy in 48-pitch gears realizes high efficiency and low noise. Ball diff for RB can be installed as an option.
