Kraken VESLA.5 C1E 12S Electric Roller [KVS303]
The VESLA.5 is a unique, re-imagined, two-wheel drive, 1/5th scale RC car by KRAKEN RC. This is a variant designed for use with electric power in a roller format.
With its True Scale Class 1 look, the VESLA.5 sets a new standard for the next-generation two-wheel drive system. The wide footprint is what makes VESLA the best handling 2WD 1/5 while no compromise is given for putting power down.
Updated for 2026, we have reduced the price significantly by improving the box size! This was achieved through packaging the car as a partial build kit! With only minor assembly required, the customer needs to simply install pre-assembled suspension arms and wheels and tires to the chassis. All necessary hardware will be included! Carried over from 2025 updates; each car has the V3 DuPont material arms front and rear, as well as the upgrade Taylor HD Billet hardened idle gear in the transmission.
