Overview

Please Note:

This kit comes without an ESC, Motor, Servo, Battery, Charger, or Transmitter and will come with an unpainted body that may require cutting, painting and drilling.

Since its re-release in 2022, the Fantom EP-4WD Ext has garnered widespread acclaim from both new enthusiasts and those familiar with its original iteration. Now, as Kyosho celebrates its 60th anniversary, this model embarks on a new journey. This 12th model in the vintage series features a captivating transformation with all aluminium parts anodised in a golden finish and sleek black wheels front and rear.

Responding to popular demand, Kyosho has equipped the Fantom EP-4WD Ext with a newly developed ball differential, a feature absent in the original 1985 version. The reinforced lightweight carbon shaft ensures smooth cornering performance on various surfaces such as asphalt and carpets. The rear shock has been upgraded to the EFW014 rear adjustable shock, enhancing driving precision and allowing for better road adherence by widening the rear width.

Note

This body shell comes completely unpainted. Only use polycarbonate-safe paints such as the Tamiya PS series to finish the body. Standard paints will not adhere and/or may cause damage to the body shell's surface.
