I have been having problems with bending the front hinge pin brace. Even the 720b is bending which is cause havoc with bending hinge pins and tearing up the hinge pin holder as well. I had an extra SCR alum (by STRC) sitting around and it is wider the the rb6 hinge pin holder. So what I did was use the wider aluminum hinge pin holder and narrow castor blocks so the wheels didn't get wider. I made a steel hinge pin brace to match the wider pin spacing and wala problem solved. The front end is now solid, surviving several crashes. I cannot detect a different feel in the front end as well. The angle of the front shocks is different, but couldn't differentiate in driving the rb6. Hoping someone will come out with a rb6 hinge pin brace in aluminum with a steel hinge pin brace, but in the mean time I'm sticking with this setup as it won't bend and doesn't effect the front end.

thats the other one I am trying to decide on. I currently have an RS but wanted to branch out and try something different.

How is the braking on the Gen 2 rs compared to a R10 pro 2-3 160 amp?

IMHO avoid the rev pro because of its large footprint. For rb6 I would go with r10 or HW 3.1 (likely my next ESC) ymmv cheers,

Have three of the red hobby wings. Best esc ever and the power switch is an awesome feature along with the pc tune options.

I caught a recent pic of Masami Hirosaka's yokomo f1 and it had a HW 3.1 in it. TQ and win (yeah I know it prob don't make a difference but hey the ESC survived). If you look at the yokomo website the ESC looks suspiciously like the HW. Cheers,

Some invitational / promotional event. Google "yokomo Waigo masami" for some YouTube clips. Cheers,

I've been running 4 Hobbywing V3's since the day they came out (over a year now) and I've had zero problems with them, racing up to 4 times a week.

I've been using 2 Reventon Pros since their release. One in m RB6. Zero issues. Super smooth. Easy to use with included LCD card. I use SP 8.5V3 in buggy and 7.5V3 in SC.

Yes, this new Rear Hub is going to be awesome. Instead of having 3 different hubs on hand and having to replace the hubs for different tuning, you simply just have to change out the bearing holder. It will work much like the TKI3 in regards to the bearing holder but they will offer different degrees for tuning...

I dont understand. It will have inserts in the hubs to change toe? What do you mean by bearing holder?

A few mins of searching allowed me to find this pic of the new rear hubs.

Is it a replaceable bearing holder so you don't have to throw out $50 hubs when they wear (that in and if itself would be awesome) or can you actually change rear toe with these? The marking if 0 on the hub seems to suggest the inserts do not change toe.

interesting, but how often do the hubs wear out. And he said it was for tuning, that is why I thought it was toe inserts.
