Kyosho 34119 INFERNO MP11e — Purpose-designed 1:8 electric 4WD chassis for builders
The INFERNO MP11e converts MP11-style mechanics into an electric-specific package, with component layout and balance optimized for brushless systems and mid-length battery use. Precision-machined A7050/A7075 duralumin parts and a shaft-driven drivetrain create a rugged, serviceable kit that rewards careful setup work.
Chassis and drivetrain intent
A flat, machined aluminum main plate reduces unwanted flex and lowers the center of gravity. The drivetrain is a straight-line shaft-driven arrangement with an updated center gearbox that accepts adjustable spur gear heights, enabling a wide selection of motor power and pinion ratios while maintaining clean gear mesh. Split left-right battery mounting helps limit roll inertia and keeps weight centred along the chassis.
Suspension and steering details
Suspension geometry remains consistent with MP11 practice but benefits from revised hub carriers and long-stroke oil shocks for improved control. Included aluminum front hub carriers use a 12-degree kingpin angle to stabilise the car at speed. Durable lower arms and split-type bearing holders simplify differential height changes and everyday servicing.
Bodywork and aerodynamic approach
The provided body and rear wing have been shaped for the electric version, with side rails and a strengthened rear spine to manage airflow and improve rear stability. Adjusting the wing position is straightforward by changing the spacer between the wing stay and the wing, allowing small aerodynamic tweaks without altering the body shell.
Who the kit is aimed at
This assembly kit is intended for experienced builders and collectors who prefer a mechanical, tuneable electric 1:8 buggy with an alloy chassis. It is designed for those who will assemble, maintain, and refine the car rather than use it straight from the box.
