A period correct racer updated for todays hobby scene

The Yokomo YZ-870C returns as a 1/10 4WD kit that captures the original Super Dogfighter essence while offering practical improvements for maintenance and on-track tuning. It appeals to modelers who value authenticity and performance balance.

Classic engineering with serviceable layout

The FRP chassis retains the original approach to weight and stiffness, and the 2-belt drive carries a familiar feel. The double wishbone suspension responds well to spring and damper tuning common in club-level setups.

Modern compatibility without losing heritage

Aluminium gearbox housings mirror the era but now accommodate gear differentials and a slipper clutch so modern powertrains can be used without compromising driveline reliability.

Authentic period details for restorers

Careful reproduction of features such as the roof duct and milky bulkhead caps helps preserve the era look. The 1.9-inch wheels and tyres are true to the period while remaining compatible with a range of replacement compounds.

Specifications

  • Chassis: FRP with modern battery holder
  • Drive System: 2-belt drive
  • Suspension: Double wishbone with adjustable shocks
  • Gearbox: Aluminum cast with gear differentials
  • Wheels/Tires: 1.9 inches, period-correct reproduction
  • Electronics: Not Included

The Yokomo YZ-870C is well suited to collectors and racers who want a genuine retro build that can be tuned and campaigned in appropriate vintage and club classes.

An experienced builder can assemble the kit in an afternoon. Newer builders should allow several sessions to ensure careful alignment and suspension setup.
Yes, the combination of authentic styling and upgraded differentials makes it a good fit for many vintage or period-correct club classes with appropriate setup.
Routine checks include gearbox lubrication, belt tension, and shock oil condition. Regular inspection of drive cups and bearings helps avoid failure during events.
Yes, modern servos and radios fit without issue. Check servo dimensions and mount positions when selecting high torque models for steering.
Medium compound tyres provide a balance between grip and durability on a variety of club surfaces. Swap to softer compounds for low grip days and harder compounds for abrasive tracks.
