Kyosho V-One-S II

[StevePond]

There's not much information available yet, but it appears Kyosho will be releasing a new V-One-S II, a second generation of the popular 200mm nitro touring car. A new cylinder head is shown on the engine, which itself may be tweaked for more perofrmance, but it's all speculation until we get more information.

Whats the difference from this and the original VoneS?

Redesigned upper deck and different placement of the throttle servo and fuel tank. I guess for better weight distribution. The old V One S had inline servos and a very offset fuel tank.

The plate is like the optional carbonplate for the first one.

This car raises questions about the FW-05R that is shown somewhere else in this section. Kyosho has the V-One RR and V-One S II, why would they need another 1/10 scale nitro touring car like it is implied that the FW-05R is? It would make more sense to have the FW-05R a SuperTen.

Not hardly. The Tamiya (TGR pictured) is a shaft drive car with the engine parallel to the centerline of the chassis and an off-set center drive shaft for better weight distribution. The Kyosho uses a multi belt system.

Yeah. All you need is the new Upper Deck, buy the blue speacial heatsink head, and you should be good.
