Stiffen Your Steering with the Kyosho IGW052 Plate

The Kyosho IGW052 - 7075 Aluminum Steering Plate for R246-3501 is produced from 7075 aluminum to increase steering rigidity and component life on the R246-3501 chassis. It is aimed at drivers who want a more direct steering feel for both competitive laps and spirited running.

Strength and Weight Balance of 7075 Aluminum

7075 aluminum provides a strong but still lightweight base for steering assemblies, improving feedback while avoiding significant mass gain. The material choice helps keep tolerances true under heavy use.

Fitment Notes for the R246-3501

Engineered to align with the R246-3501 steering mounts, the IGW052 allows a tidy installation that works with standard linkages. That fitment keeps setup simple and preserves existing geometry settings.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will this work with upgraded servo arms?

Yes, the plate is compatible with common servo arm setups used on the R246-3501, but check for clearance with larger aftermarket arms.

How much extra stiffness does it add?

Switching to 7075 improves torsional stiffness at the steering pivot, yielding crisper wheel response without a big weight penalty.

Is servicing different with this plate fitted?

Routine checks remain the same: inspect fasteners and wear points after running. The stronger plate can reduce deformation but bearings and linkages still need regular inspection.
