This limited-edition buggy features a high-strength aluminium monocoque chassis, anodised in a striking gunmetal colour. The chassis is further enhanced with a newly designed hybrid carbon upper plate, resulting in a lightweight yet incredibly durable platform for superior handling and performance, and the rear motor configuration contributes to excellent driving stability.

This buggy includes the iconic Optima Pro body, renowned for its stylish design and exceptional aerodynamics. To celebrate Kyosho America's 20th anniversary, it features a special decal set with cut lines perfectly matched to the Ultima, adding a unique touch to this classic design.

Large Capacity Oil Shocks

Enhance your buggy's suspension performance with included carbon fibre shock stays. These lightweight and rigid components effectively absorb feedback from the surface, ensuring maximum effectiveness from your shocks. Previously an optional upgrade, these carbon fibre shock stays now come standard, elevating your buggy's handling to the next level.

Versatile Hybrid Carbon Fibre Plate

Well what can I say, my parcel arrived with damage on the outside carton, but due to who ever packaged it at hobbies direct went above and beyond with filling the entire box with stuffing to ensure the contents remained safe I took a photo of the outside of the box before I opened it just in case there was damage, after opening and removing all the stuffing my parcel was safe and sound well done Hobbies Direct thank you for a well packed package, I've bought heap's of RC Kits from Hobbies
