Spool didnt work at all for my 415, personally i hate them on carpet. try a one way, they seem to be working on the T2, maybe with a change of setup, the oneway might be better?

Go to ebay and search "tech racing ta05". They should have them listed there.

Any reviews on the center one way? What's the effect on running just the center one way? Is it more forgiving than a front one way?

Center One-Way is always used with the Front One-Way. When they are used at the same time, it makes your car more efficient.

UPDATE--Last night was the maiden run for my son( 8 yrs old) and his TA05. He has only driven his Mini-T on the carpet before and has never raced a sedan so you can guess I was nervous. LOL 2 practice packs plus 3 heats and a main resulted in NO broken parts except his Alpha body which has severe front crack in it. I and many others were amaized at the punishment this car took and never faulted. Just wanted to thank you guys for answering my questions and pointing me towards this car. I can give him his wheel time he needs and race our TCS race, plus, I won't have to fix it every time he puts a battery in it!!! Life is GOOD!!!! Later

Sup,

I tried the Satoshi set-up at Speedzone last Saturday. It doesn't work at that track.

The Dongski set-up still works best for Speedzone.

Save you the trouble.

Springs - Yellow Front, Red Rear
Swaybars - Red Front and Rear

Hope this helps.

Finally finished assembling my tao5 yesterday haven't painted the sweet supra esso body. Workplace still a mess. What sucks is I can't fit my gt7 anywhere so I used a mc330.
Also why does the lw reversible arms that I bought for my tbo2 not fit specifically the swingshaft. I thought these were 46mm but they're short and hang at the end of the outdrive. They wil popout for sure. The shop here doesn't have swingshaft for the regular arms of the o5 so I'm stuck with the dogbones. The kit is very noisy for a belt drive.
