Introduction
Designed in the image of an American full-size van, Kyosho’s fun MAD VAN model combines retro body styling with a light and sporty chassis for pure R/C enjoyment.
Overview
The simple design of the FZ02L-BT chassis uses fewer parts for easy maintenance and delivers strength and rigidity through front and rear stiffeners with reinforced ribbing and optimized material formulation on critical parts. In addition, the near symmetrical design and optimal front-rear suspension balance works in combination with the power source to produce excellent control and maneuverability for this type of model.
Slipper clutch, front and rear differentials, oil shocks and full ball bearing specifications provide performance efficiency to compliment its high durability and impact-resistance.
Soft compound, wide large-diameter tires with inner sponges feature rounded shoulders to produce secure grip, not only off-road, but on sealed surfaces too, so this van can be enjoyed just about anywhere!
As the MAD VAN is a fully pre-assembled Readyset, only 4 x AA batteries for the transmitter, battery for the chassis, and a battery charger are required for the fun to begin. Whether going off-road or on-road, the MAD VAN produces dynamic performance to be enjoyed with its own unique style.
- Body Is Designed In The Image Of The American Full Size Van
- Main Chassis Uses A Lightweight, Highly Rigid Glass-Reinforced 66 Nylon Resin
- Equipped With Bevel Gear Type Differential Gears
- Comes With The New Powerful 550-Size 14T Brushed Motor
- Includes A Waterproof 60A Electronic Speed Control
Features
- The body is designed in the image of the American full size van of the 1970s and 1980s, and the body color is metallic purple, which is still popular in the United States.
- Includes decals that allow you to change the front grille / coloring and a separate roof spoiler made of polycarbonate that enhances driving performance, allowing you to customize it to your liking.
- The main chassis uses a lightweight, highly rigid glass-reinforced 66 nylon resin bathtub model.
- 66 nylon is used for the suspension arms which achieves a good balance between flexibility to absorb impact and rigidity around the tires.
- Equipped with bevel gear type differential gears on the front and rear ensuring smooth turning when cornering.
- Full ball bearing specifications minimize drive loss.
- Comes with the new powerful 550 size 14T brushed motor which has a long can with a steel ring around the motor case and internal cooling fan providing efficient torque and high speeds.
- The front and rear suspensions are equipped with a 12mm diameter big bore oil damper that achieves stable driving by absorbing the impact from the road surface during off-road driving.
- Uses hex screws in each part. Reliable tightening torque can be applied, and maintenance is possible with even fewer tools.
- Ball connect type kingpins are used on the front knuckle arm up and lower.
- The caster angle can be easily changed in 3 steps by moving the front upper suspension arm position back and forth with a spacer.
- The front and rear knuckle arms and suspension arms are shared on the left and right, increasing compatibility of spare parts.
- Since the motor mount has mounting holes according to the pinion gear, troublesome backlash adjustment is unnecessary. Supports from 29T to 37T.
- ESC adopts waterproof 60A "KA060-91W" with reverse. It is also possible to switch between NIMH and LiPo batteries.
- A 20T pinion gear and a 76T spur gear are used for the primary acceleration. Demonstrates torque corresponding to large diameter tires.
- Equipped with a slipper clutch as standard to protect the gear from any impact.
- A soft compound is used for large-diameter monster truck tires and equipped with an inner sponge, providing good grip both on and off road.
FZ02L-BT Chassis
Simple design of the low CG FZ02L-BT chassis features a covered speed controller and receiver. The one-piece gearbox on the main chassis optimizes torsional rigidity and is made from shock-resistant lightweight nylon. Key components deliver structural strength to realize a simple upper deckless design.
Standardized Screws
Reduced number of parts and consistency in size and type of screws means a 2.0mm hex wrench can be used for nearly all flathead screws. This allows easier assembly and disassembly for maintenance.
Front Suspension
Front suspension features optimized bump steer and scrub radius combined with reliable ball-connect steering knuckles. Front-rear and left-right interchangeable hub carriers improve parts efficiency and maintenance.
Oil Shocks
Oil shocks are equipped as standard and deliver stable performance in all conditions. Optimal front-rear geometrical balance realizes light handling and control stability.
550 Size 14-Turn Motor
Equipped with a long 550 size 14-turn brushed G14L motor that generates enough torque power for wheelies when the battery is fully charged so the fun of dynamic big-tire performance can be enjoyed to the full!
Adjustable Gear Ratio
76T spur gear and 20T pinion gear are designed for optimal big-tire performance. Wide range of gear ratios can be used with pinion gears from 20T~29T to suit various motors. In addition, backlash adjustment is made easy by direct installation of the motor according to the number of pinion gear teeth.
60A Speed Controller
Includes large capacity KYOSHO SPEED HOUSE (KA060-91W) 60A speed controller with super plug (Deans) connector. Features three control modes: FWD/Brake/REV, FWD/Brake, and FWD/REV. Compatible with Li-Po battery.
Polycarbonate Body
Angular shape of the molded polycarbonate body is designed in the image of an American full-size van style of the 1970-1980s. Large-diameter wide tires compliment the body design and deliver strong performance with the polycarbonate roof spoiler.Extra decal sheet included to customize body.
All-Terrain Tires
Soft compound large-diameter wide tires deliver excellent grip on a wide range of surfaces, from paved surfaces such as parking lots, to sand, dirt and even grass.
