never tried -- just went w/ the 'suggestions' from rctech
grip has been improving week over week after putting down a new layout 5-6 weeks ago. track is all dirt. http://www.rctech.net/forum/racing-f...ldwick-nj.html

I know a few ppl that are using the TLR alloy servo horn and it fits very nice. They are installed on both the kit bellcranks and the alloy bellcranks works great. I will probably be picking up an extra one to put on mine.

I am 95% certain they are using:

TLR 22 servo horn (I can't post links zzz). [TLR1557]

They just pulled the one off their 22's and used it on the b5m at least that is what I was told. Both previously owned and raced the 22 platform. I can double check tomorrow night at the club race.

I am using the alloy horn that came with the protek 130ss servo and i have to shim the crap out of it cause of a funky angle and have to use the higher hole to keep it from rubbing. The guys that are using the ones from the 22 do not have to shim the servos because the horn is shaped better. Instead of being straight flush with servo it kicks out a little then comes up. Hard to explain.

I just finished building my B5M and I noticed I have about a 1-2 mm gap on the rear arms. Anyone else experienced this?

If you have all the stock plastic C & D arm mount pieces then yes. Shim the rear arms forward and you'll be fine.

Rear Hard arm way good in corner & decent forward bite.

Less side bite though, maybe -25% ...

Will be racing um tommorow ..

Fit & finish is great...

Tip

You have to always pre tap & grease the threads first with the HARD plastic.

can use a steel screw & grease or the best way a threaded hand tap.

Wow, that's a big hit to side bite! I'm running hard stuff except for the arms. You most def need to pre-tap with a steel screw but haven't found need to use grease.
