Yeah my GF has a Yokomo and I really like it. Smooth but oversteer-y. I just got an XRay 2wd out of curiosity, but if it isn't fun, I'm going to make it 4wd and get either a Yokomo or B5M. Just curious how they compare.

Why is everyone using the orion speed control? Is there something special about it that I dont know about?

Pretty much what Matt said. matt has been a "Brand" name shopper for a long time. He is "trying" out some of the more economical stuff. I am sure if you PM him, he will give you feed back. I have been preaching it for a couple years and no one listens and over spends. lol. I tire of talking to walls, lol. I just let people over spend and if they ask me, I will give them feedback on the many many esc's I have bought and sold over the past 1-2 years. I have pretty much owned every major and high end budget esc. But I find most people will buy the shiny stuff or their personal brand they are loyal to.

he is a pretty good racer from out of town. he knew there was a different tower and it is in stock at our track but did it anyway and liked it. i guess when the ryan's do it maybe then people will try it and might like it. I dunno. he said ride height was good and used the same hole up top also. he got 2nd in expert mod at a track he only raced a couple times, first place was one of our regular experts.
From what my eyes see, "The Ryan's" were not running a B5m tower w/ flat arms at Cactus. They have the correct B5-RM tower to go with the flat arms. The AE setup sheet that NeoBuggy released, as well as the pics of Maifield's B5m reflect this. Check out the pics.

So far out of the few carbon straps made the Associated strap has the most style in my opinion

I think you're mistaken?

They weren't running a B5-RM tower with flat arms, they were running a B5-RM tower with flat arms.

I guess it went over your head, Point being evrything the pro's do people who don't have their talent will try. kinda like all the crying over cactus setups, who races a sugared outdoor track weekly???
It cracks me up that i say a guy i race with did it and liked it , and you keep saying it won't work cause sean said so...lol
And i am also racing a b5m on a low traction track, but it won't work for that either,right?

I told you guys earlier I'd post some photos but now that the Orion is specifically asked for here you go. I think this weekend I'm going to break it down some and run the sensor wire under the battery, and break off the plastic case from the caps and just shrink wrap them for a little more room and 1/2 a gram less.
Wildcat doesn't the HW 3.1 come with the 2 caps similar to the Orion, that you can use?

(The orion and hobbywing cap packs are indeed the same, or very similar. I would just go for the hobbywing one instead of messing with the orion one.)
