Got to see one of these in action last night. Man it looks dialed out of the box.
Crap load of steering and it had a grip load of power with a 13.5 in it..
Very nice.

Does that tire combo work on your RB5 down there?
I made some more adjustments tonight and went even faster!
Started the night with the setup I posted:
http://mobile.liverc.com/results/?d=...K_BUGGY_NT.xml
Then for round 2 I made some adjustments to get the rear end to be a little more locked in after a 180 coming on power. I lowered the rear shock mount to the furthest inside hole. This helped and I went faster.

Then for the main I felt it was a little to stiff with the shocks down so I went to a softer spring in the rear, switched to gold rear springs, car was amazing for the mains. I was clicking off 19 second laps like it was nothing.

Was on a 19 lap pace (which obliterates anytime a stock buggy has gone on that layout, only the good mod drivers or 4wds go 19 laps) but Kevin Smith and I started waiting for each other so we could race.
I'll make a new setup sheet for what I changed tonight and post it up.

Hello guys!
I'm now an (hopefully happy) owner of a RB6. Got it yesterday but i haven't assembled it yet.
I bought everything i need: motor, ESC, car, batteries (2), pinion (20t, is it good for a 8.5T motor?) and tyres. Only thing i don't know how to do is the plugs parts... The ESC comes with "raw" wires and i don't know which plug to put on those wires... Any website/article to give me some hints?
P.S.: I'm a 1/8 nitro buggy pilot, so i don't understand a s*** about electric stuff!!
Thanks

if you get your electronics in place, instead of buying all the equipment and learning on the go (unless you want to), take it to your LHS, they should be able to help you wire it up for a few bucks

I also saw one running last night. It was smooth and amazing. I want one bad. I just got an ultima db and want to stay with kyosho. I like what I am seeing from Kyosho. I hope there footprint expands here in the US.

The esc usually gets directly soldered to the motor. A to A, B to B, and C to C. And last but not least, the sensor wire is just plugged in. The ESC gets plugged into the receiver, just like your servo. Once up and running, you need to learn how to calibrate your ESC/radio. Each manufacturer has their own steps for calibration.

Hey guys...
Does anyone tried the saddle configuration in rear motor layout? How does it compare to shorty or stick?

You could send me the body (or a new one, if this one is totally screwed up), and ill paint one for you. It wont be a work of art (I can't spend a crap load of time on it), but it will be relatively cool not unlike the one I have here. Just paypal me the cost for return shipping.
