Kyosho Turbo Scorpion

Here it is lads, the Kyosho you've all been waiting for!
Yes, it's a re-release, but let's face it, it's basically the same thing and all of the OG's are either on a shelf somewhere, or rotting away in some dudes attic!
Oh, and sorry for the lack-luster edit work on my last upload. Like all unaccountable people, imma blame my software, but I SWEAR my editing program was on the fritz that night, hence the lack of editing and extensive chatterboxing!
Anyhoo, thanks again for tuning in, y'all rock! Let's make 2021 a banger!!

That thing is gorgeous! Its got the Super Champ meets the Wild One vibe.

[@poorboysrc]

It still handles as good or better than most modern 2wd buggies I drive today. It's nuts!

[@RcBasherBoi]

Man these are so easy to build. I really enjoyed putting mine together. A great vehicle for sure, thanks for sharing!

[@poorboysrc]

Easy to build and a blast to drive! Thanks for watching Gabriel! 👊

These Kyosho buggies are amazing. I love my Tamiya's but I can't deny the value for money if buying these Kyoshos. The quality is next level. This is one of the best looking buggies I have seen. I would love this and the Javelin. Great video and quality editing. Have a great day.

[@poorboysrc]

Thanks for all the kind words Dusty! I couldn't agree more, the Kyosho's are absolutely gorgeous and the build quality is second to none. 🤙

I have a Javelin! I wanted a cage versus a shell like on the Optima.

This is the best looking Buggy ive seen for a Long Time.

She's a beauty, eh! These vintage kits sure are nice to look at! Thanks for watching! 🤙

That is a cool car, thanks for sharing it with us

[@poorboysrc]

Thanks Simon! 👊

Still a beautiful chassis.

I just turned the last screw on mine. Just need to paint. Running a Spektrum Firma 85a esc and 4000kv motor. Since my esc has a fan, I have it mounted directly under the driver, too tall to fit anywhere else. My Javelin with 3300kv and and 31t pinion (largest i can run without changing the spur) goes 37mph. Not happy with the cogging off the line, but it does pull hard. I hope the Scorpion goes at least 40 mph. I do wish Kyosho would re re the Double Dare.

[@poorboysrc]

I think you should get to 40 with that motor, if not you could always try and squeeze a smaller 3S in there! 👊

[@isaiahfurrow7414]

Don't apologize if a kit isn't old... all RC cars are cool... and the Kyosho ReRe kits are well done...

[@poorboysrc]

Thanks amigo! 😎

[@JeepsCafe]

I've been on the hunt for a Turbo Scorpion. Hopefully Kyosho will release more kits.

[@poorboysrc]

I'll let you know if I come across one for sale! They're really nice buggies!
