No the Yokomo Drift car is Yokomo SD based as it always has been.

I'm pleased and surprised to see Keyence showing a brushless system. For a company with quite a limited presence in the hobby market it is good to see them take the trouble to develop something. If it is anything like their brushed motor ESC it could be a class apart.

Nice to see Futaba having a crack at brushless too.

The big Japanese industries building brushless will have a big impact on it's popularity worldwide.
