Big Fun in a Small Package: The BlackZon Myte 1/43 Scale Lineup
When the weather turns bad or you simply cannot make it to the local dirt track, indoor micro RC is the ultimate way to get your racing fix. We are incredibly excited to announce that the brand new BlackZon Myte 1/43 scale lineup is officially in stock and ready to ship at Naughty Boy RC.
These highly capable, Ready-to-Run (RTR) 4WD micro machines deliver big thrills straight out of the box. Whether you are looking to set up an apex-clipping road course in your living room or practice your ultimate drift lines on a hard floor, BlackZon has built a specific model for you.
Here is everything you need to know about the BlackZon Myte Red Drift Car and Grey Race Car.
Shared Performance Features
Despite their distinct purposes, both the Drift and Race models share an impressive micro-chassis platform loaded with hobby-grade features.
-
Drivetrain and Suspension: Both models utilize a 4WD shaft-driven drivetrain that is supported by ball bearings for smooth operation. They feature an integrated gearbox set and independent suspension with a spring shock setup.
-
Speed and Power: Out of the box, these micro cars hit a top speed of 12 km/h. They are powered by an included 7.4V 150mAh Li-ion rechargeable battery pack that utilizes convenient USB-C charging.
-
Electronics and Control: A 2.4GHz 3-channel radio system provides interference-free control, integrating a speed switch on the transmitter to lower the maximum pace for newcomers or tight indoor spaces. Drivers can also control the realistic LED headlights and taillights directly from the transmitter.
-
Adjustable Gyro Assist: Both vehicles feature four selectable gyro modes. This allows drivers to adjust the amount of steering assist on the fly, fine-tuning the handling to match their individual skill level.
-
Extras: Each package includes track dots, allowing you to instantly build your own custom circuit wherever you are.
The Metallic Grey Race Car: Precision Grip
If your goal is chasing lap times and hitting the perfect out-in-out racing line, the Metallic Grey Race Car is your weapon of choice.
-
The Setup: This model comes equipped with race-spec rubber tires specifically designed to provide high grip, smooth handling, and highly controlled cornering.
-
The Aesthetic: It features a highly detailed, Metallic Grey hardbody shell that delivers a realistic, understated motorsport look.
-
The Use Case: This version is perfect for high-traction surfaces like low-pile carpet or foam micro-tracks. It requires precision throttle inputs and teaches excellent corner entry and exit discipline.
The Metallic Red Drift Car: Controlled Chaos
If you prefer sliding sideways and linking corners in a continuous slide, you need the Metallic Red Drift Car.
-
The Setup: This model ditches the rubber in favor of specially designed, low-grip drift-spec tires. These hard tires are engineered to break traction easily, allowing for controlled slides.
-
The Aesthetic: The detailed hardbody shell comes in a vibrant Metallic Red. It also includes optional drift-style decals, giving you the choice to add race-inspired, sponsor-style graphics for a custom competition look.
-
The Use Case: Drifting requires a smooth, hard surface like hardwood, laminate, or polished concrete. By adjusting the built-in gyro, you can learn how to balance counter-steering and throttle control to maintain a perfect drift angle.
Which One Should You Choose?
If you want the challenge of carrying speed through a corner and shaving tenths of a second off your lap time, grab the Metallic Grey Racer. If you want the stylized challenge of balancing throttle and slip-angle to connect a perfect slide, the Metallic Red Drifter is calling your name.
Both the Grey 1/43 Race Car and the Red 1/43 Drift Car are available right now at Naughty Boy RC!
