Mini-Z construction

At the beginning, I want to express my gratitude to all Habr's readers who are interested in information about Mini-Z radio-controlled cars. At the request of blog readers publish one more material:

The design of the chassis of the radio-controlled car Mini-Z Racer series from Kyosho



Just want to note that the Mini-Z, as a rule, comes assembled in its entirety. You just have to buy batteries. “That's enough to feel the whole drive from piloting this little car!”
')
The speed of the standard Mini-Z out of the box is 18-20 km / h. To turn the Mini-Z into a serious sports car for competition, I recommend reading the material published under the heading Tuning Mini-Z or follow the links under each item of the below review separately.

I would like to get acquainted with the Mini-Z design using the example of the rear-wheel drive chassis of the Mini-Z Racer MR-02 RM and MR-02 LM series with electronics operating in the ASF 2.4 GHz frequency band (see the post What is Mini-Z? )
