Improve Drivetrain Response in Your Optima Mid

The Kyosho OT272 Swing Shaft Set upgrades drivetrain stability for the Optima Mid, using 64.7mm shafts designed to reduce play and sustain smooth rotation during spirited running. These parts are intended to help keep the Legendary Series car performing consistently.

Why the OT272 Is a Smart Upgrade

The OT272 shafts are precision-made to minimise drivetrain lash and improve torque transfer. That results in more predictable throttle behaviour and reduced likelihood of drivetrain-related issues during competitive or club use.

Fitting Steps and Maintenance

Installation of the Kyosho OT272 Swing Shaft Set is straightforward for competent hobbyists. Make sure mating components are clean, fit the shafts correctly and apply a small amount of suitable lubricant. Regular checks for wear will ensure long-term reliability.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Are these compatible with other chassis types?

They are specified for the Optima Mid. Other chassis may use different shaft lengths or end fittings, so measure compatibility before attempting to fit them elsewhere.

How do I prevent premature wear?

Keep shafts and surrounding parts clean and lightly lubricated, avoid running with heavy grit trapped in joints, and inspect regularly for signs of scoring or play.

What should I check after the first run?

Re-check mounting fasteners, confirm smooth rotation and top up lubrication where needed. Address any unusual noise or binding before further use.

Can these shafts be upgraded further?

Many users explore hardened or coated replacements for extra durability, but ensure any aftermarket option maintains correct length and fit for the Optima Mid.

Is fitting covered by warranty?

Warranty terms vary by supplier. Keep your purchase details and check with the retailer or Kyosho distributor regarding coverage related to installation or wear.
