Kiyo said to install the pins parallel to each other in the uni. Other than that they go together very smoothly, keep them oiled and they will last forever.

Excellent, Sobue is attending too, hopefully we'll see some good setups out of this meet

Nope, I watched online. The only pictures I've seen have been action shots of the cars.

A front gear diff on asphalt seems interesting. I'm curious to see setups from the race.

mmm just watching now, the TRF cars look ok but not as good as the yokes. Not sure what they used in the gear diffs, putty or 500k, rest of the setup was pretty standard C/B front, .5mm anti dive, XA/E rear .5mm under the blocks, HPI silvers. Not sure about wheelbase shock angle/oil and camber link heights, I'm sure they'll post them on their blogs

Good battle between Marc and Ronald. They definitely had the Yokomo working. It seemed to have more mid/exit steering letting Ronald get back into the throttle sooner.

Hi guys, can any one advise me on my layout, I've got an Orion R10 Pro and its packing the biggest capacitor. Near the same size as my KO micro receiver. Does this bulky thing really need to come along for the ride? Or can I trim it off my ESC

You need a cap but it doesn't have to be that one, grab one of the orca ones they are 4 small caps with good output and can be placed down the centre of the chassis where the weight goes.
