Description
Please Note:

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

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 — including the 6061T6 aluminium main frame chassis, forged suspension arms, and 2-piece aluminium diecast gearbox with built-in diff gears — the Tomahawk retains its characteristic Spartan double deck. The new Tomahawk is not simply a reproduction of the original machine: each key component has been updated with modern R/C racing technology. Eliminating the radio box reduces weight, and side mounting of the battery provides optimal weight distribution.

Aluminium Arms
Aluminium Arms

The Kyosho 2WD buggy range suspension arms are crafted from high-quality 6061-T6 forged aluminium, providing the ultimate combination of precision, rigidity, durability, and lightness. The wide front tread improves stability and control, allowing you to push the limits with confidence.

High Efficiency Gearing
High Efficiency Gearing

Kyosho 2WD buggy range drivetrain features high-efficiency 48-pitch gears made from a combination of sintered alloy and nylon. Two gears are included for high-speed and low-speed settings, while an optional ball differential is available for further customisation.

Aluminium Shock Absorbers

Lightweight Chassis
Lightweight Chassis

The Tomahawk shares the Scorpion's robust chassis structure and materials, but with a key difference: the removal of the radio box reduces weight by 80g, enhancing agility and performance.

Improved Rigidity
Improved Rigidity

The Tomahawk's chassis features enhanced rigidity, thanks to the resin clamp that secures the front of the lower deck. This upgrade improves handling and provides a more stable platform for the electronics.
