Kyosho MFR

I got my very own Kyosho MFR last year . It is an awesome truck from what I have experienced with it . It comes with electric start and is a ready set . The reason I went for it was that the revos and savages were absurdly priced at around 45 k when I was deciding what to buy . Overall it is a fast monster truck but I dont think it will beat a revo . Also any tuning suggestions will be welcome

as I am not a tuning pro . I am running it on 20 % Byron fuel . Recently I imported led strips and an led controller from hong kong. I have attached some pics of my MT .. Do enjoy !!! Cheesy

Btw , there is one pic with the old horrible looking leds.. please dont mind .. lol

Re: Kyosho MFR

@arpit : yeah , kartik here ... Thnx dude... did you have a post about selling a savage flux hp u didn't want ? And I am look forward to seeing ur yet to arrive savage !! As for the Byron fuel , In Delhi you only get Tornado from Manish I think . There is a person called Mr. Moiz from bombayrc.com ( website not functional now ) .. He stocks all sorts of Byron fuel . If you want I can give you his number .

@azhaguvel : lol .. I think I washed it myself Wink

hehe ... anyways , glad u liked it

Welcome to RCI Kartik

Nice MT. This is the Giga-Crusher right? How old is this one? Do you have any other rc's?
What is that thing on the front of the body above the grille?
Videos would be nice

Re: Kyosho MFR

@rajathv8 : Its not the Gigacrusher dude. It's the MFR

U can google it or check it out in Kyosho's website. It has hardly been a year since I got it and wasn't run much due to my Board exams. That "thing" was my old self made led set.. lol .. I got rid of it though .. I hope to post vids soon

Nice MT there. Is the fuel you use better than the Tornado ?

Re: Kyosho MFR

Thnx dude ... Btw your revo is very cool too . A friend of mine bought the same colour two weeks back and it is so fast !!! cheers ... As for the fuel , I have never used Tornado fuel , but I heard it is good

My friend uses Tornado and he has no problems . If you want you can try Byron and see for yourself which one suits you . Personally I like Byron and it has won best nitro fuel awards in the past

Hope this helps (btw , you will need to tune your engine again if you change fuel )

Re: Kyosho MFR

Neat truck! In the fourth pic, whats all that sticking out the truck? I can see an LED strip on the hood.. Is that temporary or have you mounted it there?

With all the flips I do, anything on the body will last me just 5 minutes Grin

Supposed to the best in car fuels. But availability is the issue. Since Moiz is dormant, not sure.

Re: Kyosho MFR

@ Taseem : Thnx for liking it

As for the strip , yes it was a temporary led strip . I had used tits n bits from here and there and set it up myself . But now I have got led strips that come with an adhesive side ( I hate the idea of drilling holes into the body) and a remote control for the lights

I have attached some pics to show you

@mailforajo and shashank : Yes , Byron is pretty good . And about the dormant part . It seems like Moiz is not very active but he will surely ship it if you give him a call . I just got in touch with him a few days back and the Byrons are in stock

So if you are planning to switch to Byron , go for it

Re: Kyosho MFR

Hey thanks for the pics! I loved the remote system!

Is it safe to stick the lights on the outside? I can see the soldered contacts as well. I mean, don't you crash?? Bow

You should see the front crash guard on my truck. Its all scratched up with the crazy stoppies. Its a similar story with the rear guards as well > Cheesy

Re: Kyosho MFR

You just reminded of my crash on sunday Tongue

We were running a thundertiger truggy , my mt , and a revo along with two nitro helis in a field .. Sunndenly my radio lost control . It was because I had fit in a failsafe and forgot to switch it on , so it messed up the signals . My truck hit a wall at around 60 km /hr .. Front chasis plates and braces bent . But no damage to bumpers , not even a scratch Tongue

I just bought the chasis plates . thats all . And soldering on two points is pretty easy I guess and they do not come out in crashes

The lights are pretty cheap tough but good in quality . For 5 $ , you get 60 leds !!!!! and the remote system is around 14 $

Re: Kyosho MFR

@F22A: Thanks for the info

well i dont mind re-tuning my truck IF the fuel is so good and long term availability is not a headache. Read some info on the MFR and i must say its a ver good truck at that price point. We would all like some videos

Even i had plans of fixing LED's on my truck but after one day at the track i realized it wont last me long Grin
