Replica Kart Feel with Kyosho 31315T1 BIREL R31-SE

The Kyosho 31315T1 brings a faithful 1/5 scale interpretation of the BIREL R31-SE to the RC arena. Built to reflect the compact, driver-centric layout of a racing kart, this model emphasises nimble steering and direct driver input over typical car-like suspension.

Side-Mounted Engine and Balance

Equipped with a GZ15 engine positioned beside the seat, the chassis keeps weight low and balanced to mirror the behaviour of a real kart. This placement helps with predictable corner entries and stable mid-corner balance.

True-to-Life Steering and Braking Details

Features such as the trail knuckles and rigid rear axle are designed to recreate authentic kart turning characteristics. The straight muffler supports scale aesthetics and quieter running, while the rear-axle disk brake delivers consistent stopping force.

The Kyosho 31315T1 BIREL R31-SE is aimed at model racers who value authentic kart handling and scale detail, offering a straightforward platform for tuning and track practice.

Assembly is mostly plug and play for the Readyset, but you should check trim settings, throttle linkage and fuel lines before the first run.
Flat, smooth asphalt or purpose-built kart tracks give the best feedback and grip for the chassis design and tyre profile.
Yes, tyre choice, ride height, and gearing adjustments are the main tuning areas that affect handling without altering the frame.
