The Legacy of Kyosho's Inferno NEO 3.0
The Kyosho 33012T3 Inferno NEO 3.0 is more than just an RC buggy; it's a testament to Kyosho's decades-long dominance in the world of competitive off-road racing. With eight World Championship titles under its belt, the Inferno series has set the bar high for performance and reliability. The NEO 3.0 brings this legacy to hobbyists, offering a ready-to-run package that combines race-proven technology with user-friendly features.
Engineered for Performance
At the heart of the Inferno NEO 3.0 is the KE21SP engine, known for its balance of power, torque, and ease of use. This engine is paired with a recoil starter and a slide carburetor, making it accessible even for beginners. The engine's rear-exiting exhaust and reliable idling ensure smooth operation, while the inclusion of a break-in reducer facilitates an easy start for new users.
Chassis and Suspension Excellence
The NEO 3.0's chassis draws from Kyosho's competition-level designs, offering exceptional durability and flexibility. Its four-wheel double wishbone suspension and universal swing shafts minimize drive loss and enhance crash resistance. The adjustable Big Bore Shocks provide superior shock absorption, ensuring stability on all terrains. Meanwhile, the front and rear gear differentials efficiently distribute driving force across the wheels, maximizing traction and control.
Design and Durability
The buggy's design features a high-visibility body with pre-applied decals, eliminating the need for additional work. The KC Cross Tires, inspired by motocross patterns, offer excellent wear resistance and grip on diverse surfaces. Additionally, the reinforced front shock stay improves durability and jump landing stability, making it a robust choice for serious racers.
Ready to Race Out of the Box
The Inferno NEO 3.0 comes as a factory-assembled Readyset, requiring only glow fuel, AA batteries for the transmitter and receiver, and basic starting tools to hit the track. Its 2.4GHz Syncro KT-231P+ transmitter allows precise control adjustments, enhancing the driving experience for both novice and seasoned hobbyists.
