Salutations Earthlings!
i used the included "high torque" servo and it sucks.
there is a lot of play between the plastiky bit and the metal spring.
i tried to solve it bu using one less spring ,that got rid of the play but that made ther servo saver really soft.
then i tried to add a bit of epoxy to rid the gap<causing the play>but it just got too messy.
i eventually used a kimbrough servo saver.
you try it...

my black servo saver had the same slop as the white one. i personally like the good one from HPI, can't remember the part number though, thats if you run a saver.

i am currently running just a solid aluminum servo arm. no slop in those

FYI on Shurikarn Edition:

There was a display at the RCX show here in California.

No aluminum support blocks in the middle and gear case are still made of regular plastic not hardened composite.

davioh

they prob will sell it as a hop up and make you buy it after it's released...or saving up some stuff for later...as someone said above...hehe...maybe a tbe3 special

I had problems with the white Tamiya one, so I replaced it with a mid sized Kimbrough and it's been working really well so far.

Peter, It was a very good size event. Tamiya had a huge booth and was showing off there products every couple of hours. You can see real custom cars, Robot fighting thingies, R/C planes, boats Etc. Off-Road track, On-Road track. Kyosho tracks (Off and On) for there mini cars. Not to much stuff for sale, only a couple of vendors, Hobby People and E-hobbies. All major brands were there. My friend had a booth contributed by RCX to show off Concourse Cars right by HPI's Booth.
It was pack Saturday and Sunday and was very successful.

Thought you may like to have a look at the race timing system many of the clubs in the UK use, r/c timing .

It has a number of features and is very easy to use windows based programe writen by an r/c racer.
