Overview
The Carisma M40S 2.0 Honda Civic Type R (FL5) Boost Blue Edition is a 1:10 scale, 4WD electric brushless touring car wearing an officially licensed FL5 Civic Type R body finished in Boost Blue. The FL5 body reproduces the real car's wide fenders, aggressive aero, injection-molded front spoiler and high-downforce rear wing.
Underneath is Carisma's M40S 2.0 chassis: a carbon composite bottom and top deck, permanent 4WD with front, center and rear differentials, aluminum oil-filled shocks, full ball bearings and front and rear anti-roll bars. It is supplied almost ready to run with a sensorless brushless motor, 3S-capable brushless ESC, 6kg metal gear steering servo and CTX-2000HP 2.4GHz radio installed, so it only needs a 2S or 3S LiPo battery and charger.
