Carbon plates
Bearings
Metal gears
Chain
Steering servo with metal gears
Brushless system

I am stunned by how much you get for the money. I’ll get a receiver in it as soon as I catch up on work
Lol

anatomically correct driver as well.

Yeah, there’s a lot going on there between the rubber suit, the stance, and the...well...you know...

should add 'Gimp' on the side of his helmet there.

Uhhhhh, that rider is fairly disturbing

Sweet bike though, especially for a hundred bucks! Does it just take a regular surface receiver like you would run in a car?

Yup. Nothing special

Where's it go (the receiver), doesn't look like there's room anywhere? Don't tell me us goes in the rider's...

...package?

There’s a spot opposite the speed control. Modern receiver will have plenty of room

Where does the battery pack go?

Underneath

Here’s some pics of it ready to roll out. I found some 1/2 size deans plugs that fit well. Never seen them before. Not sure why our balance plugs need to be 6’ long but I’ll tackle that another day

I ran it just a little tonight, I will need to put the training wheels on it after all. It leans too far and you can’t bring it back up. Just like the old Kyosho bikes. I might make up some Kyosho style skids as the training wheels look silly. I will say it’s quite a bit faster than the old Kyoshos and seems stable, and turn in is great. These don’t shift weight and they don’t even have a very heavy front wheel- it’s amazing they are as stable as they are.

is that a gyro in the tail?

pretty neat overall. interesting half size deans too....

They make an optional rear wheel gyro but stock... Nothing. Like I say, it’s incredible that it’s as stable as it is haha!

I’m working on the skids in my head. The training wheels look stupid AF. They use a wing mount style holder for them, so it’s easy to substitute a piece of piano wire. I know they get tore up quickly but they will look a lot better for sure

My first one was a early Kyosho bike, pre-HOR, and it was the beat handling bike I’ve owned. The Royal Hyperspeed was fun but mainly because it was so fast

Here’s a vid of one of these BSR’s in a small area. Not even hitting half speed based on what I saw from mine lol
