When is the new bodyshell coming onto the market?
|
SOmetime this year.. when i asked Shin at the petit he wasnt giving much away...
My guess is it will be out the same time as the new chassis and slipper set up.. :thumbsup: Rob... whats a mini inferno bushless :p lol |
I have confirmation that FS2 will arrive in July. The new RB5 Sp2 in June.

That is correct. Guess they did not feel the need to rename the car because of that. No other difference what so ever so buy the umw516 and you got your self a SP2.
|
I just got word that the FS 2 will be out in May.
And confirmation of a new motor layout, although nothing more than that. |
Will there be a KIT too?
|
Kyosho have launched a new shell (as shins shell)
Its called the BodyShot LAB05 :thumbsup: lipo friendly its decribed as! :thumbsup: |

I would be very supprised if they move the motor position...:confused:
From the petit... it was a new shell, new lipo chassis (no cut outs for cells) and a new slipper..that was going to appear... :thumbsup: |

And spec sheet says new motor layout, that's all we know. Nick, that's also what Shin said at the petit, but the car wasn't ready either so he may have decided to change more things... |

The "unique motor layout cancels out torque effects" will be the new slipper set up that Shin was running at the Petit! :thumbsup: |
I have also pictures but I don't know how to put them on the forum. Give me your email address and I will send them

Here are pictures low definition. I also have high definition but too big for the forum...
|
Looks great :thumbsup: Might be my next car really:drool:
|
:cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:
I was told this car will be much more expensive than the FS and TBH I don't see any reason for that... |
I've only just finished upgrading my ZX5 to the SP version :mad:

Because Jared Tebo signed all the new pieces with his littles hands....:thumbsup:
|
Then you will finally come back to the 'mother company' my friend ;)
|
As you can see on pictures, the rear arms are not the last ones from the Ultima with only single hole for shocks...
|
Not new arms again:thumbdown:
What should i do with my endless supply of LA255-s |
The arms are the mid arms LA243 or um521 :thumbsup: both these have 2 holes for fixing the shock bottoms.. um521-1 has the single hole only..
You would still need LA255 for your front wishbones! :thumbsup: |
So is this an FS with the old Rear-mid conversion on it? I'm liking the new shell, reminds me of the YZ-10 I think:thumbsup:
|
Although I like Kyosho a lot, I think the new shell is plain ugly. It reminds me of the Losi 8ight T influenced yucky low sitting Nitro shells. :thumbdown:
Maybe they should have taken the Optima Mid bodies as a basis to work on, even the old Lazer ZX shell looks better. The mainfold suspension options meanwhile have become really confusing. I'm glad I sold my SP in early 2009. |
Hi Guys,
Do we have anymore details on this FS2,it' upgrade kit aint it? Any ideas of Retail price for the upgrade? |
Looked my arms at the desk.
I've got 10pairs of arms. 2pairs are there from the ZX-5. 4pairs are the KYOUM521. 4pairs are the KYOLA255. So win-win for me. :thumbsup: And i finally realized that my car has KYOUM521 rear arms and hopefully the KYOUM519 rear axles. Oh, what a good day. EDIT: Can i use the KYOUM519-2 with KYOUM521 or i have to use KYOUM519? |
I am looking for a new 4wd car.I am not completly happy with the yokomo and the big bores. Is it still woth buying the fs and spares? Or is it best to wait for the new car? I race in belgium where we have small astroturf tracks.
Wich shops do you buy parts from? Thanks! |
