Hey Marcos, now that you have both the FW05R and the 710, how do you compare the two? I was thinking of getting a 710 too so I am curious what you think. Thanks!

The Kyosho pipe helps but I'm still at a disadvantage. I finally got my own Kyosho pipe and will be running it from now on.

The FW feels more planted yet still turning in really sharp where as the 710 is a little nervous. Also, everyone here doesn't think highly of the 710's durability. I haven't broken anything on the car but that's because I've only run the car 3 times.
I already have money set aside for a V-one RRR. My Evolution was ballistic. Belt drive is just giving me less of a hassle. I'm keeping it Kyosho through and through. These are the toughest kits I've ever owned.

I've fitted the Centre Conversion Kit and at last I'm not lighting up the tyres under power, and that long 1st gear makes the car feel so good (21/50*46), also the Kawahara diffs run much smoother.
These Diff wear problems, I must be lucky as I've not had any problems with mine (and I use the car a lot), maybe it's the Ceramic Grease I use on them.

same on-power characteristics w/ one-way,.. the up-side is, you'll have a strong front brake (one-way has no front-brake)
down-side : chews the ring and crown gears even faster

For the past 3 days i ve been practicing at the track and couldn't dial in the car perfectly. The rear end keep on loosing causing it to spin whenever i exit the tight 180 turn on power. I m using diff at both end with 50k frt and 30k rear. Will mugen rear upright conversion make the rear more planted?
Thanks in advance.
