Kyosho Mad Crusher GP 4WD Nitro Powered RC Truck, Red, 1: 8-Scale

Description

The foundation of the new “Mad Crusher” solid axle truck dates back to early 2002, when it was first introduced as the “Mad force.” this popular series of trucks is getting its most significant revision to date, and it’s packed with much more horsepower and advanced suspension that’s more realistic, and traversing the toughest off-road terrain. The most significant upgrade on the Mad Crusher is the suspension. The Mad Crusher is just the second Kyosho truck (the rock force high-performance crawler was the first) to feature five-link suspension. It delivers far superior and more realistic performance for a truck using solid axles. In the Mad Crusher, four conventional links connect the axle to the chassis, and the fifth link is a Panhard rod that laterally locates the axles. Combined, the five links allow much more freedom of movement, which improves traction over uneven terrain. The nitro-powered Mad Crusher features a proven, powerful Kyosho KE25 engine that starts easily and runs like a fine watch when it’s properly tuned. The KE25 engine features a large milled-aluminum cylinder head keeps the engine cool. The basic design of the chassis has always been its strength, and the twin vertical plates (TVP) form the chassis sides while a horizontal base plate serves as the mounting area for the power system and the radio gear. The steam-punk style, uber-reliable chain primary drive Transfers power to the axles in both versions of the truck. The Mad Crusher is factory-assembled so it’s ready to roll within a matter of minutes. The familiar solid axles of the Mad Crusher have been installed in every version of this truck since the original Mad force. It features a new linkage arrangement that is more scale than previous versions, Thanks to the 5-link suspension.
