Kyosho 34119 INFERNO MP11e — 1:8 electric 4WD kit prioritising mechanical serviceability
The INFERNO MP11e adapts the MP11 mechanical concept into a dedicated electric layout, arranging components and weight for brushless power and mid-length packs. Precision duralumin parts and a shaft-driven 4WD system make this a robust kit tailored to hobbyists who service and refine their cars.
Chassis and drivetrain intent
The machined flat aluminium main plate stabilises flex and lowers the centre of gravity. Power flows through a straight-line shaft system into a redesigned centre gearbox that permits adjustable spur gear height, enabling a wide array of motor and pinion configurations while preserving optimal gear engagement. The split battery layout minimises roll inertia and keeps mass close to the chassis centreline for steadier handling.
Suspension and steering details
Suspension geometry follows the MP11 tradition with updated hub carriers and long-stroke oil shocks for reliable damping. Aluminium front hub carriers with a 12-degree kingpin angle improve stability at speed, and robust lower arms plus split bearing holders in the bulkheads simplify differential height swaps and routine maintenance procedures.
Bodywork and aerodynamic approach
The included body and rear wing are profiled for the electric variant, featuring side rails and a reinforced rear spine to manage airflow and rear stability. Wing position can be altered by changing the spacer between the wing stay and the wing, allowing on-the-fly aerodynamic adjustments without body modification.
Who the kit is aimed at
Designed for experienced builders and collectors, this full assembly kit rewards those who will assemble, maintain and tune an alloy-chassis, kit-format electric 1:8 buggy rather than use it as a plug-and-play model.
