Setup Notes for the Kyosho UTW004 Carbon Plate

If you run ULTIMA cars and want cleaner handling, the Kyosho UTW004 Carbon Radio Plate is a practical upgrade. Crafted from quality carbon fibre, it strengthens the radio bay area and helps deliver steadier responses under load.

Why Carbon Fibre Improves Handling

Carbon fibre gives a high stiffness to weight ratio, so parts stay rigid without adding bulk. That makes it ideal for radio plates where you want firm mounting surfaces without raising the car's mass. The Kyosho UTW004 uses those benefits to help your ULTIMA track more predictably.

Compatibility and Typical Use

The UTW004 is designed specifically for the ULTIMA 87 WC Worlds Spec chassis for accurate alignment and consistent performance. It works well as a replacement or a targeted upgrade for club and regional racing applications.

For tuners wanting a firmer top deck and crisper steering feedback, the Kyosho UTW004 Carbon Radio Plate is a dependable choice that supports precise setup work.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will this plate affect my car's weight distribution?

The plate is lightweight and mainly increases rigidity rather than shifting mass significantly, so weight distribution changes are minimal while steering becomes more consistent.

Do I need different screws or hardware to fit it?

Generally the UTW004 uses the stock mounting points and hardware, but inspect screw length and thread engagement when fitting to avoid over-tightening into carbon fibre.

Is maintenance different for carbon fibre parts?

Keep the plate free of grit and check mounting screws regularly. Avoid harsh solvents and inspect for chips around drilled or threaded areas after hard use.

Which surfaces benefit most from this upgrade?

Tighter, high grip tracks where precise steering and reduced chassis flex matter will show the most noticeable improvement from a carbon fibre radio plate.
