  • So, you wanted a Kyosho Build, and here it is!
    This is part 1 of 2. I build the rolling chassis. Part 2 will be fitting the brushless motor and the rest of the body.
    This Kyosho Turbo Scorpion is the probably the nicest RC Car I've ever built! Nearly all Aluminium fixed together with hex bolts, and full ball bearings! Tamiya could take some tips from Kyosho! If this was a Tamiya Vs Kyosho video, Kyosho would be winning! But I'm still a Tamiya Fan Boy haha...

    Ordered one last week but could only find one in Israel in stock so went for it. Also got some Corally goodies in the form of brushless motor/esc and servo. Also got some ceramic bearings from fast Eddie all of which has arrived.... Can't wait for the car to arrive. Love Kyosho models.

    In the mid 80s I got my first Kyosho kit, a Turbo Ultima. I had already built and owned several Tamiya cars and loved them. The quality of the Kyosho parts amazed me. The materials, fit, finish, everything was perfect. I still love my Tamiya kits and still buy them, but I've always known Kyosho is the highest quality brand.

    Heyo, your videos have inspired me to consider getting back into the rc hobby, about a year back I tried to waterproof my wpl c14, it worked for a bit but the motor eventually was destroyed by water I think I'll go back in with the wpl b24 and stay away from water, been looking at many of your videos on both and they've been a help

      Thanks Calvin, glad I helped you out. As for (Brushed) Motors... they are ok in water, as long as you make sure they are allowed to dry..so either a small amount of WD40, or just drive them around for a bit once they are out of the water.

      Well it will 'probably' be ok, but you'll not get the full potential out of the motor. I've run motors that are to powerful for the ESC before, and not had any issues, however, that's not saying it's the right thing to do
