I really like the video without the music because it lets you here you throttle inputs so you can hear if your late getting on and off power.

Great quaility and nice practice session

Couple of questions;

Is the TKI Spec-A the same as the TKI (except that its partially assembled)?

Will Kyosho will bring out a new version of the Inferno before/after the Worlds? I am tossing up if I should get one now or just wait for the newer version (assuming their is one)


thanks

one of the local guy got the new XB9 and share with me the manual. I was like, damn, this is one good manual!

http://www.teamxray.com/teamxray/sho...p?file_id=8332

The one I like best is how they use scale to measure the amount of diff oil. This will ensure constant amount on rebuild.

Full colour manual btw. Well thought through manual.

Default I'm back, well sorta off...

Haven't raced in two years, got married, new kid, life, rain... and looking to get in at least a couple races this year. Before I quit I had bought a MP9 which has sit on my bench not touched since. Looking for a set up to start out with. I usually started with a Cody K set up with my WC and got me close... Not sure what I did when I built it...

Also WTH happened to SGrid???

They either will or they won't; one of the two.

The car is perfect; no need to change anything handling wise. A split center diff mount would be nice though; and releasing the front WC shock tower would rule the earth!

Later,
Agreed,,,, i cant think of anything they could improve in the handling department
Split center diff would be very nice and as far as shock towers I wish they would just make some out of 4mm carbon fiber (flex but not bend)

google is your friend.

FWIW, I'd much rather have an aluminum part that will bend and allow me to finish a main instead of a carbon fiber piece that would snap and cause me to dnf.
