Description

In 2019, the Kyosho Mini-Z series celebrated more than 20 years of unmatched performance and scale realism in the hobby-grade RC category. To continue pushing the boundaries, Kyosho introduced the Mini-Z 4x4, delivering an all-new driving experience with superior overall design, driving performance, and high-quality injection-moulded scale body construction. The Mini-Z 4x4 places a strong emphasis on body detail and finish quality, surpassing even the high standards of the standard Mini-Z series. The body features enhanced durability, crafted with thicker material to withstand rough terrain and resist damage from crashes.

Inspired by the ladder-style frame found in real 4WD vehicles, the Mini-Z 4x4 boasts a 3-link rigid axle suspension combining two upper links into a single upper A-arm, ensuring maximum suspension travel. A specially designed high-torque steering servo handles challenging terrain with ease, excelling in demanding rock-crawling conditions. The high-torque 130-size motor is perfectly geared for low to medium-speed ranges. The Kyosho Mini-Z 4x4 is the ultimate mini crawler, delivering a full range of crawling performance in a compact package.
