With the KYO guys running 25deg total caster most of the time, curious if anyone has tried 25deg kick w/0 caster? Maybe it might help the push we fight with mid motor.

No, the rear towers are model specific and are not interchangeable. The B5m rear tower will work with either MM and RM rear arms.

Why do the RM rear arms provide more traction than the MM rear arms?

Has anyone else tried the STRC aluminum steering kit? Seems like the geometry is a bit off but I never tried the stock parts. I had to play with spacers for a while to keep the turnbuckle from rubbing my servo. Just wondering if the stock or AE aluminum kit is the same way.

My B5 rm has some nasty push right now. What steps did you take to eliminate it?

Sweet! What about front gull arms upside down?

Looks like you trimmed the battery brace the same.

We went back & forth with the cut guard or loose screws, ECT.

Decided car was more predicable with screws tight and no cut.

Just saying...
