I'm not much of a Kyosho fan, but I'm interested after watching that video!

What is the stand-up panel on the third and fourth pictures showing? Carbon fiber versions of the flat alloy parts? :o

That’s Akira Kogawa’s old Tomahawk as it looks today. And this is how it looks back then.

Hope that works. The pics are larger :D

The options look like carbon fiber part and hard-anodized chassis rails. :D

The list of option parts looks a lot longer than just the chassis rails and carbon parts.

It's been a while but not sure all the details. I know there is a Kyosho America now, where Great Planes/Tower used to be the exclusive importer. Probably has something to do with it
