Chassis Focus – Naoto Matsukura

Car: Yokomo B-Max4 III
Esc: Yokomo BLS-R3.1
Motor: Yokomo RP 6.5T
Batteries: Yokomo
Radio/Servo: Sanwa

Naoto is running the new B-Max4 III from Yokomo which is a mostly new platform over their previous chassis. The chassis is now made of aluminium with the car not utilizing a top deck it is still very stiff through the use of braces. The drivetrain is also new with Naoto choosing to use ball diffs, despite gear diffs coming in the car as standard. The suspension components are retained but there is new shock towers and floating steering servo mount. The new car seems to be running very well with Naoto setting some of the fastest lap times during practice.

After the recent ISTC World Championships in California, Red RC gets ready to switches from electric power to nitro power as well as travel to the other side of the World to bring you coverage of the 10th edition of the IFMAR 1:10 Nitro World Championship. With support from Maxima RC Racing Fuel, T-Work’s Asia, Rapicon Max Power RC Fuel, SMART-Workshop, and Infinity, we are excited to be returning to Huge RC Circuit in Bangkok, Thailand, the track of former ISTC World Champion Suirkan Chaidajsuriya hosting the WC for a second time. In 2014 we got to witness Alexander Hagberg claim his first & Xray’s second World title at this unique (and huge!) indoor track. With 2024 a year that we have already seen two historic World title hat tricks, will we see Infinity’s Tadahiko Sahashi become the first ever driver to defend their 1:10 Nitro title? Our coverage starts on November 19 (Tuesday) and runs through to Saturday’s title deciding 1-hour final. We looking forward to you following along as IFMAR crowns its final World Champion of 2024.
