In 2019, Kyosho's Mini-Z series — the world's most beloved mini RC series — marked over two decades of unparalleled performance and scale realism. To push the boundaries further, Kyosho introduced the Mini-Z 4x4 design, offering an entirely new RC experience. This series stands out with exceptional overall design, driving capabilities, and top-notch injection-moulded scale body construction — 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 crash damage.
Inspired by the ladder-style frame of real 4WD vehicles, the Mini-Z 4x4 boasts a 3-link rigid axle suspension combining two upper links into a single upper A-arm for maximum suspension travel. A specially designed high-torque steering servo handles challenging terrain with ease, excelling in rock-crawling conditions. The high-torque 130-size motor is perfectly geared for low to medium-speed ranges.
Utilising advanced injection moulding techniques to attain an unprecedented level of detail, this meticulously crafted shell has a detail usually only seen in die-cast models. It proudly bears an official license, demonstrating an unwavering commitment to faithfully replicate every aspect of the actual vehicle.
Tyres and wheels that are specific to each model are a major focus of the Mini-Z 4x4. This model features a scale reproduction of the Toyo Tyre's export brand "Nitto Ridge Grappler" tyres mounted on custom wheels.
The Mini-Z 4x4 incorporates a ladder frame design with steel vertical plates, in combination with various moulded parts to deliver the ultimate balance of rigidity and flex for superior performance and durability.
The Mini-Z 4x4boasts robust front and rear axles, featuring precision-engineered metal ring and pinion gears. These high-quality components not only ensure exceptional durability but also guarantee a consistent and reliable performance that enthusiasts can rely on for countless thrilling adventures on and off the trails.
The Mini-Z 4x4 is equipped with advanced coil-over shocks, meticulously designed with a thoughtful 360-degree spring retainer. This ingenious feature ensures that you won't lose any vital components while navigating challenging terrains, keeping the springs securely in place even during the most extreme suspension movements. It's the perfect combination of practical engineering and innovation, enhancing your off-road experience.
The Mini-Z 4x4's gearbox is a marvel of engineering, boasting carefully crafted moulded covers, precision ball bearings, and a selection of six pinion gears. This versatile gearbox provides you with the flexibility to fine-tune your vehicle's performance to match your chosen terrain. Just like its Mini-Z counterparts, adjusting the gear mesh is a breeze thanks to the included spacers, ensuring your RC adventure is both seamless and exhilarating.
