We have launched a crowdfunding campaign for the “MRD Prototype”, a 2WD Drift Conversion Kit for the MINI-Z AWD.

P&A Works Company Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo, President and CEO: Ei Chifude, hereinafter referred to as PandA) and Enjoy Smile Co., Ltd. (Location: Atsugi City, Kanagawa Prefecture, Representative: Hiroyoshi Ishikawa, Enjoy Smile Company, hereinafter referred to as esc) have launched the “HRD Project” under the dream of creating a radio-controlled car from a prototype together with our users.

As part of this project, we have successfully developed the 2WD drift car “MRD Prototype” based on Kyosho’s “MINI-Z AWD”. To realize this new challenge, we have started a crowdfunding campaign to collect funds for mold making and prototype provision, necessary for the conversion to the “MRD Prototype Conversion Kit”. We began accepting applications today, April 19th.

■ “MRD Prototype Crowdfunding” Overview

The funds raised will be allocated to the costs of mold making necessary for product manufacturing and the provision of prototypes. We offer a variety of support options, including special benefits for very early supporters and plans for purely supporting the project. If the target amount is not reached, we will have to postpone the provision of the “MRD Prototype Conversion Kit”.

You can participate in this crowdfunding campaign from outside of Japan.
