Yokomo – YD-2Z Competition Drift Kit

Yokomo – YD-2Z Competition Drift Kit

YD-2 has undergone a major evolution and is now available! The brand new machine bearing the name of “Z”, which can be said to be the final form, is equipped with a new 3-split transmission case on the shape-up main chassis and will start as a new standard machine!

A new integrated bulkhead is used around the front to improve the left-right balance of the steering and improve operability. The new upper deck is compatible with slide racks as standard in the kit, and steering characteristics suitable for various situations can be obtained with minimal changes.

The gear case of the 3-gear transmission has also been newly designed, and the maintainability has been greatly improved by dividing it into three parts. Since you can access the differential simply by removing the cap on the rear side, you can easily handle even ball differentials that are frequently maintained. In addition, the motor position can be selected from 13 stages by rotating the motor mount, making it easy to obtain the balance of the center of gravity according to the road surface from low mount to high mount. With 3 gears, the throttle response is outstanding, and combined with the rear traction produced by the supple main chassis, it demonstrates higher combat power than you can imagine!

Since the suspension parts are inherited from the conventional parts, it is possible to continue to use optional parts.

The new front bulkhead is a plastic-molded integrated type. It weighs about half as much as aluminum, and can significantly reduce the weight around the front.

The upper deck is compatible with the inverted servo of the slide rack as standard. The servo mount on the back side also comes with plastic.

From low mount to high mount, it is possible to select the position of the motor from 13 stages around the top shaft. (There is a limit on the gear ratio when mounting low)

The rear brace can be inverted and installed depending on the position of the motor. It is possible to change the degree of freedom of the mechanical mounting layout and the pitching rigidity.

By using two types of battery holders properly, it is possible to mount from short size Li-po to standard size batteries.

Equipped with a height-adjustable oil shock as standard equipment. Combined with an all-round type spring, it reliably captures the road surface.

A responsive 3-gear transmission. Since the gear case is a closed type, it can run even in places with a lot of sand and dust such as parking lots.

A 3-split gear case with greatly improved maintainability. You can easily access the differential by removing the cap on the rear side.

The slim main chassis balances rigidity and is optimized for RWD drift driving.
