The INFERNO MP11e adapts the MP11 mechanical heritage into a purpose-built electric platform with layout and balance developed for brushless setups and mid-length batteries. Machined A7050/A7075 duralumin parts combined with a shaft-driven 4WD drivetrain provide a kit-level rig that is straightforward to service and upgrade.
A precision-machined flat main plate is used to control flex and maintain a low center of gravity. The drivetrain employs a straight-line shaft system with a redesigned centre gearbox that allows spur gear height adjustment, accommodating a variety of motor sizes and pinion choices while keeping robust gear mesh. Split battery placement left and right reduces roll inertia and centralises mass for more neutral handling.
The suspension retains MP11-style geometry with refreshed hub carriers and long-diameter oil shocks for consistent damping across rough surfaces. Supplied aluminium front hub carriers with a 12-degree kingpin angle improve stability at speed. The use of durable lower arms and split bearing holders in bulkheads simplifies differential height swaps and routine maintenance tasks.
The provided body and rear wing are sculpted for the electric variant, with side rails and a refined rear spine to manage airflow and enhance rear stability. Wing height is adjustable by changing spacers between the stay and wing, enabling small aerodynamic tweaks without cutting the body shell.
This full assembly kit suits experienced builders and collectors who want a race-capable electric 1:8 buggy with an alloy chassis that can be serviced and developed over time rather than used straight away.
Combining MP11-derived mechanics with an alloy chassis and split-battery layout, the Kyosho INFERNO MP11e is a durable, tuneable 1:8 electric buggy for builders who expect to maintain and upgrade their car.
