    Dynamic 2WD racer that ruled 1/12 on-road Returns with a vengeance!

     

    1/12 scale was the center of on-road electric R/C car racing in the 1980’s and was dominated by the Kyosho Fantom EP-4WD series. However, the Fantom enjoyed a strong rivalry with the rear drive 2WD Plazma series, also made by Kyosho. The Plazma’s final and ultimate model was the MKIII Limited which was released in 1987. More than 30 years later it lives again as part of the Kyosho Vintage Series! Like other Vintage Series models, the reborn Plazma MKIII Limited is true to the original design but features some modern adaptations for the latest R/C systems and power sources. Now you can relive the glory days of the 1980’s while enjoying the power and performance of modern racing! While sharing some components with the Fantom EP-4WD Ext, the simple structure of the Plazma makes it lighter and faster than the Fantom over circuits with enough grip. Like the 1987 original, the new Plazma MKIII Limited features a carbon fiber main chassis, but the original black FRP upper plate and joint bars are now also made of carbon fiber. The rear differential unit has been upgraded to the same high-performance ball-diff installed on the Fantom EP-4WD Ext Kyosho 60th Anniversary Model released in 2023. The front suspension uses the same simple king-pin & coil structure with adjustable caster angle, but now also includes two king-pin diameter types for precision adjustment of control characteristics. The α-2 open cockpit and aerodynamic body are faithfully reproduced, and all aluminum parts are finished in Kyosho Works silver color. With its dynamic performance and definitive style, the new Plazma MKIII Limited lights up the Kyosho Vintage Series!

    Simple rear-wheel-drive 2WD model in the classic style of 1/12 on-road racers from the 1980s. Features king-pin spring front suspension and a rear 3-point suspension system with A-bar configuration.


    technical-image-03

    King-pin & spring suspension system is equipped with springs on the upper part of the front knuckle arm. Adjust steering characteristics by changing caster angle with different diameter king-pins or using set screws. Driving stability can also be enhanced by offsetting the wheel shaft behind the king-pin.

    Steering servo is secured to the main chassis with a special plate and aluminum mount that replaces the double-sided tape and fiberglass tape mount in the original. This allows various modern servo sizes to be used without affecting chassis flex characteristics.

    Lightweight and high-rigidity carbon fiber upper plate is included as standard. The oil shock features a threaded collar that allows for easy adjustment of spring tension.
