Yokomo YD2S

This is Yokomo 1/10 YD-2S RWD This specialized model is with high mount motor layout for increasing more rear traction. However, it is a special design and renew the layout of the motor itself to prevent from the weakness of the high motor mount. In case of conventional high motor mount, a kind of sensitive on driving performance especially at the twisted corner section and also out of the corner, it will be less acceleration and more difficult in drive it.

The highlight of YD-2S is the high mount motor layout as a results of new gear box development.  Conventional high mount motor layout on YD-2 has been driven by third party conversions, however those are too much height since they just re-layout the motor position by adding high priced carbon made parts with ridiculous appearance.

Too much higher role center delivered the disadvantages on performance as well, such as slow acceleration at the corner exit, and it is not easy to drive at the competition track.  YD-2S enable to select 3 kind of motor positions in order to suits for the best role center to deliver  the best rear traction in several kind of slippery environments.

Fully new designed 4 transmission could squeeze into the bottom of motor, and it is the type to increase the rear traction as rotational torque goes up, supreme to low friction surface track. Rear differential has 4 pinion gear.

Since the motor layout can be changed by selecting from 3 rotate positon at motor mount plate, the weight balance of car will be also adjustable to find out the best setting for keeping supreme angle and speed in any kind of slippery surface condition.

The battery is limited to Shorty LiPo battery, but the mounting layout will have 4 different positions by selecting battery stopper location on the chassis.  The layout will be Vertical, Horizontal Front/Mid/Rear in order to complete the fine tuning on weight balance and forward/backward traction.

Steering around are the same as conventional YD-2 series.  The best Ackerman rate fill deliver the front driven running. Aluminum option parts are the co-usable among YD-2 series.

The kit does not include body, wheels, tires, motor, batteries ,pinion gear, and other R/C electrics.
