Kyosho 20572Y Zephyr Smashing Yellow 1/18 Ground-Hugger Racing Drone Readyset  [KY20572Y]

Ground-Hugging Performance from Kyosho

The Kyosho 20572Y Zephyr Smashing Yellow is a 1/18 scale racing drone engineered for controlled low-altitude flying. It mixes practical flight aids with a compact chassis so pilots can run fast lines close to the ground without sacrificing control.

Sensors tuned for near-surface stability

Designed to operate roughly 35cm to 60cm above terrain, the drone uses ultrasonic sensors combined with a barometer to maintain steady altitude. A 6-axis gyro keeps roll and pitch stable, helping the craft handle varied surfaces including short grass and wet patches.

Pistol-grip KT-231P+ control familiar to many hobbyists

The KT-231P+ transmitter gives a car-like grip and straightforward controls, making throttle and steering intuitive for those used to R/C cars. A height adjust switch lets you swap altitude presets quickly during practice.

Set your flight style with VPUS

The Variable Propeller Unit Structure lets you set prop angles from 0 to 20 degrees so you can favour steady hover or a sportier top end. Use Easy Mode to learn handling or Active Mode to chase quicker lap times.

Crash mitigation and automated stops

Removable guards, a Propeller Auto Stop System and an Angle Emergency Auto Stop System are built in to reduce injury and hardware damage if the drone flips or loses control.

Compact and reliable, the Kyosho 20572Y Zephyr Smashing Yellow suits practice sessions and tight-track racing where consistent low-altitude performance matters.
