About the Plazma Mk.3 Limited A2
Lightweight and Rigid Chassis DesignThe Plazma Mk.3 Limited A2 features a high-rigidity carbon fiber main chassis and upper plate, providing excellent structural integrity while keeping the overall weight low. The flexibility of the black FRP A-bar enhances rear tire grip, improving overall handling on the track. This lightweight design gives racers a competitive edge, allowing for faster acceleration and improved responsiveness.
Enhanced Suspension System
Kyosho has upgraded the suspension system in this model to include a king-pin coil front suspension with adjustable caster angles. The system provides fine-tuning capabilities, enabling precise control over the car's steering characteristics. The rear suspension utilizes a 3-point configuration with an adjustable oil damper to optimize stability and performance across various track conditions.
Advanced Ball Differential for Maximum Traction
The Plazma Mk.3 incorporates a ball differential unit that offers smooth cornering and improved traction. The limited-slip effect enhances stability during high-speed driving, while the carbon rear shaft reduces the weight of the drivetrain. This advanced ball differential system, combined with pre-glued and trued tires, ensures maximum efficiency and performance during races.
