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.

Is the OTW142 suited to competition use?

Yes, the blend of stiffness and impact resistance makes it appropriate for competitive environments, especially where lower weight and improved handling are beneficial.

Will I need different hardware to fit this chassis?

The chassis is designed to match Optima Mid mounting points; standard screws and mountings normally work, but confirm screw lengths and battery clearance during fit-up.

What should I watch for during long runs?

Check mounting holes for signs of wear, keep the chassis free of abrasive dirt, and periodically inspect for small cracks after hard impacts to maintain reliability.
