Unleashing the Mini-Z Optima Buggy: A Compact Powerhouse
The Kyosho 32281BCBW Mini-Z Optima Buggy brings the iconic Optima design to a new generation of RC enthusiasts. This 1/24 scale buggy combines nostalgia with cutting-edge technology, delivering a thrilling off-road experience in a compact package. The Optima's classic body style is instantly recognizable, yet beneath its exterior lies a sophisticated 4WD chassis designed for maximum performance.
Advanced Chassis Design
At the heart of the Mini-Z Optima is a precision-engineered chassis featuring a shaft-driven 4WD system, complete with a two-differential drivetrain and a slipper clutch. This setup is complemented by oil-filled shocks on a 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension, mirroring the capabilities of its larger 1/10 scale counterpart. The result is exceptional handling and stability, whether you're tackling rugged terrain or racing indoors.
Performance Features
The Mini-Z Optima is equipped with an ASF2.4GHz R/C system that eliminates frequency management hassles, allowing up to 40 cars to race simultaneously without interference. The modular control circuit board is optimized for off-road use, and the I.C.S. function enables precise tuning via a PC. An optional gyro unit further enhances stability by automatically adjusting steering and throttle.
Ready for Action
This factory-assembled buggy comes with a pre-painted polycarbonate body, pin-spike tires, and a complete set of gears and tools. While the transmitter is sold separately, the Mini-Z Optima is compatible with various models, including the Perfex KT-18. With its robust design and advanced features, this buggy is ideal for both beginners and seasoned racers looking to refine their skills.
