Thanks,

Sorry, I should have noted that they were aimed at the JRXS (and even TC3) I have 4mm threads available for the Type R.

Just wanted to be sure that I had the older threads available for those that need them.

The field included some big names like german and japanese stock national champions.

For Sunday the grip was very high, our shoes were sticking to the carpet during the ceremony...

Cheers,

thanks, i hadn't thought of the spur gear adapter having a motor selection advantage.

I am sure I've fit a 51/118 with the stock layshaft, I think I was running a novak at the time, this is with a drememeled pivot block though, you can take a good bit off, but you will lose the ability to flip it over, so I have one ready for each RC position

As far as I know Skyrocket is out and so am I. I will have my biggest batch of layshafts yet ready in 1 week. Flying Fox is stepping it up. I still can't believe how many Type R fans are out there.
