Precision Drivetrain Upgrade: Kyosho OTW159

The Kyosho OTW159 lightweight gear shaft is a finely engineered component for Optima and Ultima models. Made from 7075 aluminum, it offers reduced inertia in the drivetrain to help deliver quicker response to throttle and steering inputs.

Engineered for Reduced Mass

With 7075 aluminum construction, the OTW159 combines stiffness and lightness to lower rotating weight in the gear train. This can translate to improved acceleration and snappier handling when incorporated into a tuned setup.

Compatibility Information

Produced for the Legendary Series Optima and Ultima platforms, the Kyosho OTW159 fits where specified and can be used as either a maintenance replacement or a focused performance upgrade for track or club use.
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.

Can the OTW159 be used on different Kyosho models?

The shaft is intended for Optima and Ultima Legendary Series cars; it might be compatible with other models that share the same shaft specs, so always double-check measurements.

What maintenance does an aluminium shaft need?

Regularly clean and inspect the shaft for scoring or deformation, ensure bearings are in good condition, and reapply lubrication to reduce wear on mating parts.

Does switching to OTW159 change handling a lot?

Reducing drivetrain weight often yields more immediate throttle response and crisper steering, but the overall impact depends on the rest of your vehicle setup and tuning choices.
