This iconic buggy earned its legendary status with its wild and free Baja buggy style, coupled with a robust and innovative design. Fast forward to 2014, and Kyosho has meticulously revived the Scorpion, infusing it with modern performance technology while retaining the spirit and aesthetic of the original. The updated Scorpion captures the hearts of vintage collectors and off-road racing enthusiasts alike, with its aerodynamic design and formidable engineering that echoes the triumphs of its predecessor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eChassis\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2014 Scorpion’s chassis is a marvel of engineering, featuring an advanced 6061T6 forged aluminum construction that ensures unprecedented levels of strength, rigidity, and durability. This high-grade aluminum chassis not only maintains the semi-trailing suspension arms’ nostalgic design but also boasts a countersunk surface, allowing screws to be seated flat to minimize contact resistance and scraping. This design choice enhances the classis's durability and performance on modern buggy racing tracks, ensuring that the Scorpion can withstand the rigors of intense racing. The lightweight design reduces the use of nuts and tapping screws, replacing them with more secure hex screws, which adds to the structural integrity and ease of assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDrivetrain \u0026amp; Suspension\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe drivetrain and suspension of the 2014 Scorpion are meticulously designed to offer superior performance and control. The two-piece die-cast aluminum gearbox houses precision 48 pitch gears, which significantly reduce traction pulsation, delivering a direct driving control characteristic. This gearbox also includes a differential system that enhances the buggy’s maneuverability and stability. Additionally, the slipper clutch protects the drivetrain by absorbing shocks and providing efficient traction, thus ensuring the longevity of the transmission. The suspension system features aluminum suspension arms and oil-filled shocks with stainless shafts and aluminum cylinders, offering a smooth stroke and exceptional handling. This combination of advanced materials and engineering makes the Scorpion 2014 not only a nostalgic revival but also a formidable contender in modern 1\/10 vintage RC off-road racing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"product-page-features\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBased on the legendary and proven Scorpion platform with modern capabilities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-assembled gearbox and oil-filled shocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStylish aerodynamic Baja buggy design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum suspension arms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-piece aluminum gearbox\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll metal gear transmission\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum main chassis, shock towers and shock bodies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlipper clutch operated to protect the drivetrain and deliver efficient traction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage block pattern race tires\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear mounted motor 2WD design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Scorpion 2014 1\/10 2WD Electric Off-Road Buggy Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Clear Body \u0026amp; Decals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Racer Figure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(4) Wheels \u0026amp; Tires\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Cross wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNeeded To Complete:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) 2-3 Channel Transmitter\/Receiver System\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Steering Servo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) 1\/10 ESC \u0026amp; 540-Motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) 2S LiPo Battery \u0026amp; Compatible Charger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaint for Body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMisc.
