About this product
The Kyosho USA-1 Nitro 1:8 RC Nitro 4WD Readyset w/KE25SP2 (includes nitro) (item K.34257D + Nitro + starter) is Kyosho’s USA-1 (1/8 monster truck) — the legendary licensed USA-1 platform that defines big-tyre monster truck bashing. The USA-1 was one of the original 1980s monster trucks and Kyosho’s licensed re-release maintains the iconic chrome bumper, big-tyre and full-cage body styling that made the original a star.
Shipped as a ReadySet, the truck arrives with body, KE-series engine, servo and 2.4 GHz Syncro radio fitted. Add glow fuel, a starter box, glow igniter and AA cells for the transmitter and you’re ready to bash. The big-tyre monster format makes the Mad/USA-1 line some of Kyosho’s most fun off-the-shelf platforms — instant wow factor and serious off-road capability.
UK spares for the Mad/USA-1 line are well stocked, with everything from common consumables (shock springs, body clips, tyres) through to performance hop-ups widely available. The platform is supported by Kyosho UK distribution with comprehensive parts diagrams.
