It fits perfect, you don't even need the supplied servo mounts that come with the kit. I installed mine with with longer screws, a couple of washers and some lock nuts.

Hey Guy's

I have a question... I just picked a a used 12r5 what i want to do is I want to run the speedmerchant formula front end off the Rev5 on this car just to experiment.

But the holes dont line up. Does any on have a template where i can cut out the holes for the older front end i could be made out of lexan or anything like that I can drill outthe hole I just need a template or something like that

if anyone can help that would be great.

Your having rotation issues running a red center spring? With 1C lipo I dont know anyone who is running the red spring in stock due to the massive amounts of steering it provides just being to much, have you thought about looking at the other end and run a different tire to get more steering that way out of the car?

The front end setup feels really good. very consistent. Thats why I was looking at the rear of the car. The rear just seems to bog down.

Just buy servo saver for futaba:
from AE #3761, or from BMI: DB530X, or from HB Cyclone 12: 61644.

Cyclone one is bigger but is stronger, for AE or BMI I recomend
this item: Carbon saver brace BMI DB5305.



Hope this helps!

Fred - Try gold side springs. It will wake the car up in the corner. Though, you might have to go to softer center spring.
