Not so vintage Kyosho Mini Inferno..

OK, maybe it isnt exactly vintage, but it will be some day.

This little guy has about every hop up part on it with exception of aluminum arms. Stayed with the brushed arrangement because that is what it was originally equipped with. I dont plan on putting BL in it cause I really don't see it getting run. It does have the faster brushed motor though. Full bearings, oil filled shocks, carbon fiber bits, turnbuckles, aluminum engine head heatsink, etc.

I know they aren't as stable as the newer Mini Eights, but I ran a Kyosho MP777 BITD and always liked the looks of the "little brother".

I love the fake little engine head they have on those :)

I had one of the nitro versions with a bunch of hop ups. Very cool little buggers

Love these little gems too.
Here’s my tribute to Yuchi Kanai.

Found another picture with the body shell removed.
I haven’t had this this started as you need the tiny kyosho starter box.
Love the shrunken Sirio engine.

Nice, I sold my nitro one recently and I have the yellow, black, white body coloured electric one, it doesn't have imitation engine cooling head.
