I would like to fix my kyosho as a thrasher for my son but with parts hard to find idk. I might just sell it and upgrade my nitro spor...

Kyosho emailed me the di agraham they dont seem to offer carb parts just the whole carb that's discontinued. Im going to hit a hobby shop to see if they can help. Or micrometer my v arb inlet and order the big bore Its really a shame parts are so hard to find. This was my first nitro rc and I'd love...

Does anyone have an exploded view diagram of the gx15 with part numbers?

Well good news got my rc stuff moved to new house and actually found an extra gear that I didn't know I had :) so dont have to worry about that for a bit but I found the fuel inlet fitting on the needle valve is broke and the idle screw and spring is missing. :( however my 3 y o son is super excited...

Well guys im moving! Ill post back up in probally about a month after I get parts and let yas know how it goes

Yeah I saw that one like 30$ shipped almost went for it but figured if I could convert it over it would be a long term solution if I need another gear later down the road plus if the rc10 bell works I could probally go with Robinson gears. I wish kyosho was more open with their specs... i wonder if ...

RS seems to be kyosho Ultima ST Racing Sport. Not sure what else it fits with.

K thanks for the tip. I used after run oil in it when I last ran it about 8years ago. About 4 years ago I checkedit and it was seized after lots of effort it turned over and after I kept working at it it finally loosened up and spun freely with the pull start. In hind sight hopefully I didnt damage ...

Yeah ikr! I was on ebay only one left like 25$ shipped. I was hoping to find a long term solution so I can enjoy it. Could it be converted to get rid of the slipper and find a easily accessed gear? What are the disadvantage s of ditching a slipper set up? Or maybe like you said a dif slipper spur wi...

Just figured out my stock gear is an rs 147. I was looking at a type r parts list.

So the um 219 is .8 module pitch? I tried researching but couldn't find anything

Any tips on getting a nitro engine going again?last time I checked it wasn't seized. Should I clean the carb or anything?

Cool thanks for the reply! I'll probally order it in a week or so then post back and let ya know how it goes! Glad to see there's still some love for vintage kyosho s out there!
