The Scorpion has a strong place in RC history, and the Kyosho 30613 refresh keeps that DNA intact. Originating from the early 80s, this reworked model pairs the iconic look with component choices that suit modern track and club running.
While preserving the semi-trailing arm suspension aesthetic, the Scorpion incorporates 6061T6 forged aluminium to improve stiffness and durability. The two-piece die-cast aluminium gearbox includes differential gears and a slipper clutch to balance traction and safeguard the drivetrain.
Precision 48 pitch gears help reduce drivetrain pulsing and deliver a decisive drive response. A countersunk chassis underside lowers contact resistance for improved durability. Oil shocks use aluminium cylinders with stainless shafts for smooth damping and are fitted with the model's signature colour caps.
The kit ships unassembled, giving you the chance to build and set up to your preferences. Gearbox and oil shocks come pre-assembled to speed the process. The kit includes a clear polycarbonate shell, decals and the necessary hardware. Its wide front track and sticky tyres help it stay composed on varied surfaces.
The Kyosho 30613 is well suited to enthusiasts who appreciate a period-correct chassis that accepts modern upgrades and responds well to setup changes.
