 It was the chassis for the Ultima RB Type R, one very minor tooling change and it became the RB5 chassis !

the "RB6" looks odd.. so familiar with the "5" after the "RB".
KYO55 would be a better name  Anyway nice appreciation of the Losi design. @MOGGIE XL: jepp think so but no idea what he exactly does. Hope the price drops like the SP2WC price. List price is way high. Body and side guards look nearly waterproof.

Nice looking car, like the steering rack design.
No conversions or doner cars required!

To be honest its a pure copy and nothing else. Ok front is slightly different and more like the rb5 used to be but this is for sure not a car anybody will celebrate as an innovation.
Shock quality and quality in general always was awsome so overall it should be one of the best cars around

The RB5 was neither the most innovative, and it is a damn good car though (insert Kyosho fan emoticon here)

Are there any real new ideas left? Most things in all walks of life take inspiration from other designs around them - with some refinements here and there. The RB6 may be inspired by other designs (one possibly very close to my own heart
) but I'm sure it'll have a special K twist thrown in for good measure.I for one like the look of this and applaud Kyosho for it - and whilst I'll not be able to run one personally, I think it's an important model for Kyosho and the fact that it's another large manufacturer who feels the need to accomodate both the arguably European-centric mid motor concept (sorry Chaz) along with the more traditional US / Japanese rear motor design speaks volumes about how important its becoming for the large industry players to be global and to cater for all markets. I'm loving the material choices and the cell layout. Interesting design solutions and no doubt many more arguments as to whether the cells are the right way round or not  The fact that it doesn't need a donor or another conversion kit won't stop conversions becoming available - and that's also a good thing as it keeps interest in the class overall and there's plenty of room for everyone. Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh. Any going to Silverstone this weekend? Looking good from here - nice work.

the RB5 has a long history, the type R is now 12 years old and the RB5 is just the same with "a few new parts"
Back than this car was innovative, had no E clips as far as I remember and so on. It is just a bit sad they decided that copying the best car out is the fastes way to get a car done. So many prototypes have been seen and they end up with a more or less straight copy. Looks strange now after testing so many parts in the old car. They could aswell put new parts tested in an SP3 but it looks like they wanted to copy the rear motor option from losi and just didnt find a way to do this the same way with the rb5. Looks a bit made in a hurry without passion. I didnt expect the wow effect of the tlr22 but I was looking for more than a different steering link just to make it look different Quote:

Come on, it is not a full 22 copy - the front shock tower looks rather B4ish!
 To be honest, the large shock tower is the part I like least on this car. Being far from an innovative piece of kit, it still looks decent, however. K parts in Germany are far too expensive (e.g. BB springs at approx. 20 euros a pair), so it won't be an option for many hereabouts. Even importing Yokomo bits from France or Japan is cheaper than buying Kyosho spares locally - and domestic Yokomo parts support is improving.

thats true mes, from germany too and plastic parts are well priced but all steel, alloy and tuning parts are ridiculously expensive.
I bought a RB5 when it came out and the sp1 upgrade kit and quite some stuff but only two parts in germany. I didnt know the prices are that different to nitro 8 scale prices and I didnt check before buying. If you need a new shock body you are broke
