March 1998 RC Magazine Japan Kawada SV-10 Alcyon pre production review

 I know I have been talking about the Alcyon II a lot, and not the car that started it all, the 1st Alcyon .

It was a prototype in 1997 and was finally slated for release in April 1998.

Here is a magazine article  in Original Japanese and translated.

 

Take note it was just called SV-10 at this time, no Alcyon 

 

Youtube Channel Quiet RC has a Kawada SV-10 Alcyon box/car in his collection

 I was watching this youtube Channel Quiet RC and notice the Alcyon box in his shelf.

I went back a year and I still saw it there. He had it for sometime. What a coincidence.

All About The SV-10 Alcyon II Ultimate

 Recently I contacted Kawada About the Ultimate, they got back to me and gave the box art, and production photos and supplementary manual. And I just realize the Ultimate does not come with the rear toe in system.... What a letdown.
