To mark its 60th milestone, Kyosho has reissued the 30644 FANTOM EP 4WD Ext Gold Edition with period styling and contemporary parts. This 1/12 scale model targets hobbyists who enjoy setup work as much as on-track performance.
The kit features gold anodized aluminium components that echo the celebratory theme. A rear ball differential driven through a 6mm carbon shaft improves rotational stability, and the standard EFW014 adjustable rear shock offers a wide range of tuning for corner entry and mid-corner balance.
The proven ladder chain 4WD system remains, delivering consistent behaviour on lower grip surfaces. The black FRP double-deck chassis provides strength with controlled flex, and a front reinforcement plate helps maintain predictable steering. Adjustable oil shocks and a 3-point suspension layout contribute to consistent handling.
Builders receive pre-glued tyres and an unpainted shell for personal liveries. The model uses a lightweight carbon rear shaft and a special wheel bolt for durability. If extra rear downforce is needed, an optional wing can be fitted.
Kyosho 30644 FANTOM EP 4WD Ext Gold Edition is best suited to experienced modellers and racers who value a buildable platform with period looks and modern adjustability.
