Long-awaited MINI-Z compatible telemetry function & advanced mode.
This is a transmitter/receiver set that comes with the receiver unit "MINI-Z EVO 2 Receiver Unit for KO Compatible Transmitter (No.82045)" compatible with MINI-Z EVO2.
By combining it with MR-04EVO2, you can use the "telemetry function" that allows you to adjust settings from the radio, and the "advanced mode" that allows faster communication.
[New feature: 1] Bidirectional telemetry mode
Various setting values that have been previously set on a PC can be easily set from the radio by operating the buttons on the expansion unit, just as if changing the settings on the radio. Additionally, EX-NEXT's telemetry function can read machine information. Not only each setting value but also the machine's battery voltage can be read out in real time.
[New feature: 2] High-speed advanced mode
EVO2 allows you to use high-speed advanced mode (0.99ms)! Advanced mode's high-speed communication increases the density of information that can be sent to the machine. You can experience the "fine and smooth handling feeling" brought about by unprecedented high-definition and high-resolution control.
Firmware Ver.3.00 compatible with MINI-Z EVO2.
Firmware Ver.3.00 has been released to use MINI-Z EVO2 with EX-NEXT. EX-NEXT of this set is preset to Ver.3.00.
If you already have EX-NEXT
If you already have an EX-NEXT, you can update it to Ver.3.00 to make it compatible with MINI-Z EVO. Please download and use the software and files required for uploading from the link below. *A separate ICS USB Adapter HS is required for the update.
"Updater for EX-NEXT, update file"
Available functions vary depending on the MINI-Z receiver unit, MINI-Z main unit, and EX-NEXT version. Please check the table below for details.
Equipped with a new standard "XT" that achieves the fastest communication speed in the industry.
You can choose and use from "XT advanced mode" which is the world record response for one way communication and "XT telemetry mode" which is compatible for Telemetry ( 2 ways communication).
MINI-Z Mode
EX-NEXT was newly developed by reviewing the design of the control and communication systems from the ground up. It achieves the industry's fastest communication speed and high resolution. In MINI-Z Mode, it outperforms FHSS such as the EX-RR, which has been the fastest. The EX-NEXT's high-speed communication increases the density of information that can be transmitted to the machine. You can experience the "fine and smooth control feeling" brought about by unprecedented high-definition, high-resolution control.
XT Advanced Mode, XT Telemetry Mode
This product is not dedicated to MINI-Z. When combined with the KR-420XT receiver can also be used with general-purpose RC cars without the need to change the firmware. The combination of the ultra-fast XT Advanced Mode, the bi-directional XT Telemetry Mode, and the serial servo 4S allows you to experience the dramatic evolution of high-speed performance from FHSS. For details, please refer to the product page of the set with KR-420XT.

New Drop down extension Unit 2.1
Tune up for EX-NEXT
Tuned for the evolution of the EX-NEXT to match the fastest feeling master unit as an exclusive use unit.
Superior durability and operation feeling led by new angle sensor.
Prevents deterioration of durability and operational feeling due to wear, which can be said to be the problem of contact sensors. Along with smooth operation feeling by smoother sliding, we realize high durability that is approximately 100 times compared with the prior sensor. Therefore, the best feeling of operation can be maintained for a long time. In addition, the new sensor outputs a more linear signal to the Master Unit. You can control the ESC and servo with a detailed operation sense. A realization of a sense of unity between people and cars.
Increased the number of ball bearings that support the steering shaft for higher accuracy!
The number of ball bearings supporting the steering shaft has been increased from one to two. The double-support type supports higher precision operation and reliability.
The soft spring which can be operated with a constant tension.
The normal spring included in the extension unit has been modified. The previous spring used was a progressive spring becoming stiffer as the wheel angle increased, but the new softer spring give a linear stiffness as the wheel angle increases. Since the spring tension can be adjusted, you can set the spring tension to your personal preference.
