Kyosho Mini-Z RWD MR-04 readyset JAGUAR XJR-14 No.4 LM 1991 is an authentic EP (electric) small scale R/C car. You can drive it indoors. The car delivers the full experience of high-performance R/C car racing right out of the box. This is the simplicity of Kyosho Readyset packages.
A renewed 2-wheel drive chassis sits at its core. Its small scale suits people just becoming familiar with R/C cars. The easier control of the MR-04 makes it an ideal introduction to R/C cars.
Jaguar's sports prototype car was often described as "an F1 car with bodywork." Its revolutionary design broke with conventional Group C car thinking. The vehicle made a test entry at the 1991 Le Mans 24 Hours race. It qualified in 2nd place against more high-powered contenders.
The body is pre-painted with decals applied, complete with markings, and finished to display model standard.
The chassis arrives fully assembled from the factory. Earlier Readyset packages used the 3rd generation MR-03 chassis. This Readyset has the 4th generation MR-04 chassis, first released in 2023. The MR-04 is a major evolution from the MR-03.
The MR-04 keeps some basic elements of the MR-03 design. The top-of-the-line EVO2 was its debut model. There, the lower center of gravity and remodeled steering design delivered blistering speed and excellent handling. Keeping the best aspects of the MR-03, the new MR-04's lower center of gravity delivers significant performance improvements.
The Readyset uses the same standard MR-04 chassis as other high-end MR-04 models. The chassis has a user-friendly 130-class brushed motor and carries the Syncro KT-531P R/C system.
A geared differential delivers smooth cornering. Full ball bearing specifications mean all axles run on low rotational resistance ball bearings as standard. The same size ball bearings are used front and rear for spare parts efficiency. The change to 3mm inner diameter ball bearings also reduces rotational resistance.
Sharper and more linear control comes from new front knuckles with integrated kingpins. They reduce scrub by 1.5mm on each side compared to the MR-03. Front suspension dynamically aligns the camber angle with movement of the upper arm to maintain optimal tire contact during cornering. Revised caster angle also delivers improved steering response.
The batteries sit lower than in the MR-03, lowering the center of gravity of the entire chassis. Cornering stability and straight-line handling improve as a result.
The rear suspension uses a coil spring damper to cushion shocks from the road surface and improve driving stability. It can also be upgraded to an optional oil-filled shock absorber. The T-bar rear suspension plate holds the entire rear pod, including the motor and rear axle. Its flexibility produces an excellent suspension effect. Optional parts are also available in FRP and carbon. Rear tread can be changed by changing the wheel offset.
The Syncro KT-531P is an ultra reliable, multi-function pistol grip transmitter. Its steering wheel mimics the steering wheel of a real car, and the pistol-grip throttle controls speed.
Trims adjust the neutral position of steering and throttle, and dual rate adjustment sets the steering angle. The transmitter can also run in training mode with a reduced vehicle speed. Training mode is the default setting.
Compatible with a wide range of Mini-Z Racer optional parts, it can be tuned up for elite-level performance. You can enjoy tuning and enhancing your model.
An optional gyro unit (MZW711) can be fitted for even easier control. Gyro sensitivity is adjusted with the volume on the chassis.
The box includes:
The car needs four AAA-size alkaline or rechargeable Ni-MH batteries, which are not included in the box. The transmitter needs four AAA-size alkaline or Ni-MH batteries, also not included in the box.
The car is compatible with all bodies for the Mini-Z racer series. Motor case and differential gear assembly suitable for the body are required separately. The separately sold LED light unit set (No.MZW429R) does not fit this car.
No customer reviews for the moment.
