The Evolution of Micro Racing: Kyosho's MR-02 Chassis
For RC hobbyists who crave precision and performance in micro racing, the Kyosho 30450ASF MR-02 chassis set offers an unparalleled experience. This 1/27 scale chassis is engineered to deliver high agility and stability, thanks to its low center of gravity and advanced ASF 2.4GHz control system. This combination not only enhances the driving dynamics but also ensures reliable signal transmission free from interference, allowing up to 40 cars to race simultaneously without frequency conflicts.
Chassis Design: A Tale of Two Mounts
The MR-02 chassis is available in two configurations: the Midship Motor Mount (MM-type) and the Rear Motor Mount (RM-type). The MM-type places the motor directly in front of the rear axle, optimizing mass concentration for agility and minimal rear overhang, compatible with LL wheelbases. Meanwhile, the RM-type positions the motor behind the rear axle, providing enhanced traction and tail control, suitable for S, M, and L wheelbases. This versatility allows racers to tailor their setup based on track conditions and personal preferences.
Performance and Maintenance Made Easy
Kyosho has designed the MR-02 chassis with ease of maintenance in mind. The snap-lock system simplifies the removal of king pins, coil springs, and tie-rods, making adjustments and repairs straightforward. The parallel battery mount contributes to the chassis's low profile, while the T-bar swing-type rear suspension ensures excellent road holding and traction across various indoor surfaces. Additionally, the gear guard protects against debris, allowing for customizable gear ratios to fine-tune acceleration.
Advanced Control System
The ASF 2.4GHz system is a game-changer in micro racing, offering ultra-fast signal processing for immediate control response. This system eliminates the need for frequency crystals, simplifying setup and ensuring interference-free operation. The FET speed control amp, boasting nearly double the capacity of previous models, delivers robust performance, while the LED indicator provides a clear power status at a glance.
