A new page published to Kyosho’s Japanese-language website includes the company’s plans for its display booth at the 57th annual All-Japan Model Hobby Show, taking place at the Tokyo Big Sight East 7-8 Hall from September 30 through October 1.

In addition to a Drone Racer “try-me” area, Mini-Z racing classes for beginners, and a demonstration of a new FPV on-board monitor, visitors will have a chance to take a spin in the “4D Ride On” system. The driving simulator can be connected to either a car or drone, recreating the acceleration, braking, cornering and jumping of the vehicle onto which an FPV camera is mounted. Very cool!

There’s no word at all if this is something that would be commercially available or even used again after the show, but it’s still very cool.
