Kyosho 33151 1/8 FO-XX GP KT-231P Readyset Off-Road Truck  [KY-33151]

FO-XX GP Performance Overview

The Kyosho FO-XX GP is a serious 1/8 scale 4WD truck built for aggressive off-road driving. Paired with the KT-231P transmitter, this Readyset arrives largely assembled so you can focus on setup and tuning rather than lengthy builds. The chassis balances toughness with on-track agility to handle varied terrain.

Chassis and Build Details

Its hybrid tube frame combined with a monocoque section creates a stiff yet lightweight platform. The pre-colored bodywork and dummy fog lights add realistic styling, while the hinged front opening gives straightforward access for routine checks. A low radio box helps lower the centre of gravity for improved cornering stability.

Engine and Drivetrain Features

The KE25 engine sits behind a polished welded manifold and tuned muffler to deliver strong acceleration and reliable midrange power. The 3-speed automatic transmission smooths gear changes and extends top end run time, making the truck responsive across different tracks and surfaces.

Handling and Off-Road Setup

Paddle tread tyres provide traction across loose dirt and packed surfaces, and the rigid axle construction with solid steel bevel gears boosts long-term durability. Suspension travel and arm geometry are tuned to perform at 1G, improving control when landing jumps or powering through rough sections.

The Kyosho FO-XX GP is a resilient platform for hobbyists who want a tunable, fast 1/8 nitro truck. Its mix of robust parts and practical design make it suited to both club tracks and informal off-road sessions.
