Kyosho has released a replica of the 1969 Camaro Z/28 Blue on the FW06 platform: a user-friendly, Rady To Run introduction to GP touring cars. The 2-speed automatic transmission combines with the high-power new KE15SP engine to make full use of the power band and maximize performance from Japanese brand’s proven shaft-driven 4WD chassis.
Equipped with the 2.4GHz Syncro KT-231P+ transmitter, finding an open frequency is a problem of the past. In addition to the dual-rate function, the KT-231P+ also features a fail safe function that automatically reduces the throttle if radio signal is interrupted *may need to check setting before first run*.
With the same rear suspension as the World Champion V-ONE RRR with setting options and maintenance-friendly features, the FW-06 chassis also meets the demands of expert drivers.
