Description

Please Note:

Note: This kit comes without an ESC, Motor, Servo, Battery, Charger, Pinion Gear, or Transmitter and will come with an unpainted polycarbonate shell that may require cutting, painting and drilling.

The Kyosho Optima Mid Custom Special is a unique and collectable 1/10 scale 4WD buggy that recreates a piece of RC history. This limited-edition model is inspired by the prototype designed by Akira Kogawa, the mastermind behind the original Optima Mid. Featuring Kogawa's signature peppermint green colour scheme (body shell not painted) and a modified Optima Pro body shell, this replica captures the essence of the prototype used by the Kyosho team at the 1987 World Championships.

This special edition kit allows you to build your own piece of RC history. Recreate the legendary prototype buggy or unleash your creativity and customise it to your own specifications. Whether you're a Kyosho enthusiast, a collector of unique RC cars, or simply appreciate the history of the hobby, the Kyosho Optima Mid Custom Special is a must-have addition to your collection.

Learn How to Paint an RC Body Shell

Learn how to paint your own custom RC body shell with this step by step guide. Hamish will walk you through the process of painting your RC body shell as he paints a clear 1/10 Subaru Impreza for his 1/10 MST MS-01D drift car.

Replica World Champion Wheels

These one-piece wheels mirror the rear rims of the iconic 1987 World Championship Ultima, echoing the legendary design that Mr. Akira Kogawa himself adorned in his signature peppermint green.

Limited Edition Aluminium Shock Absorbers

The 60th Anniversary edition boasts gleaming gun metallic aluminium shock cylinders, a limited-edition touch that complements the titanium-coated shafts peeking through.

Carbon Fibre Design

Cutting-edge carbon fibre is composed into a main chassis and upper deck that are both feather-light and remarkably rigid, striking the perfect balance for flex and exceptional running performance.

48dp/0.5Mod Gearing

The Optima Mid's drivetrain features a 48-pitch spur gear and a slipper clutch for enhanced performance and durability. The slipper clutch protects the gears from shock loads, ensuring smooth operation and extending the life of the drivetrain.

Ball Diff

Ball differentials on both front and rear provide smooth operation and maximum traction with slip action when excessive load is applied for improved driving stability.

Highly Adjustable

Experience the precision of adjustable camber and toe angles. Turnbuckles on the steering linkages and suspension rods provide a wide range of adjustment, allowing you to optimise the car's handling for maximum performance.
