The Kyosho Scorpion has earned legendary status, and this refreshed 30613 edition brings that heritage back to the pits. Tracing its roots to the early 1980s, the Scorpion combines a nostalgic silhouette with component upgrades that suit current club racing and weekend bashing.
The Scorpion balances its vintage semi-trailing arm layout with modern 6061T6 forged aluminium parts to boost chassis strength and rigidity. Its two-piece die-cast aluminium gearbox houses differential gears and a slipper clutch for improved traction management and transmission protection under load.
Precision 48 pitch gears reduce drivetrain vibration and give a responsive drive feel. The chassis underside is countersunk to lower drag from ground contact and raise durability. Oil shocks use aluminium cylinders with stainless shafts for a controlled stroke and they sport the Scorpion's classic colour caps.
Assembly is part of the experience with this kit. Although delivered unassembled, the gearbox and oil shocks arrive pre-built to help you get moving sooner. The package contains a clear polycarbonate body, decals and the basic tools you need. Wide front tread and grippy tyres help the buggy track well across varied dirt and loose surfaces.
For hobbyists who value period styling with reliable modern components, the Kyosho Scorpion 30613 offers a rewarding build and a stable platform for tuning and track days.
