The 2WD off-road car YZ-2DTM specialized for dirt roads has been upgraded to 3.1, and is now available with more practical equipment!
Although it is an upgrade, it is a newly designed part that covers the entire chassis, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is a new machine. With the goal of improving the sense of stability corresponding to the speedup due to the intensification of the power source, the time will be improved by lengthening the chassis, changing the wheelbase in the steering hub carrier, and changing the rigidity balance by reviewing the front and rear parts composition. We have achieved total balance.
The suspension has also been changed to the latest configuration such as changing to a 3mm shock shaft, upgraded to a responsive suspension, and the system for the 2022 season is fully prepared.
