Rally-Ready Kyosho 31044K DRX Lancia Stratos WRC
The Kyosho 31044K DRX Lancia Stratos WRC brings a faithful 1/9 scale reproduction of the classic Stratos to the nitro RC world, built for hobbyists seeking realistic looks and capable handling. Its nitro powerplant and full-time 4WD let you tackle gravel, tarmac and mixed surfaces while keeping driving confidence for both newcomers and seasoned drivers.
Heritage Styling and Real Detail
Modeled on the iconic Lancia Stratos, the body features fine detailing and separate clear lens headlights to boost realism. The GXR18 engine with a recoil pull starter delivers the characteristic engine note, while the long wheelbase and full-time 4WD help with straight-line stability and controlled slides.
Race-Proven Mechanical Design
The separated clutch layout, similar to competition buggies, improves throttle response and control. A large air cleaner reduces service intervals and the downward-facing muffler exit helps keep the bodywork cleaner. The kit also includes large-capacity oil shocks with adjustable ride height, dual disk brakes for strong stopping power, and a radio box designed to resist dirt intrusion.
Setup Options and Running Time
This platform offers wide adjustability including chassis height, camber, tread and toe settings. You can fit optional clutch springs and shoes to tailor power delivery, and add an optional stabilizer for extra composure. The 103cc fuel tank provides in excess of 10 minutes of run time depending on tune and driving style.
