The Kyosho FW-06 is a practical entry into nitro touring that keeps performance and usability in balance. Dressed in an Audi R8 LMS shell at 1/10 scale, it provides a reliable platform for hobbyists and club racers to learn setup and engine tuning.
The chassis is engineered for consistent handling, using a rear suspension design shared with the V-ONE RRR to enhance mechanical grip. Power runs through a centre-shaft 4WD system into a 2-speed automatic gearbox. The KE15SP engine uses a slide carburetor and a recoil starter to simplify engine handling and adjustments.
With 22 ball bearings, the FW-06 aims for smooth drivetrain operation. The model ships with high-grip rubber tyres pre-glued to wheels to cut setup time. Disk brakes add reliable stopping control, while aluminium-cased oil shocks give stepless preload adjustment to fine tune handling balance.
Delivered as a Readyset, the FW-06 comes assembled and radio-equipped with the Syncro KT-231P+ on 2.4GHz to minimise interference. The transmitter includes dual-rate and failsafe functions to help with control and protection during runs.
The Kyosho FW-06 makes a sensible platform for those who want a ready-to-run nitro touring car with genuine tuning range and upgrade paths for improved performance.
