The drivetrain is very good, Rick's car had the smoothest drivetrain I've ever seen, even better then mine. :D Clutch was also very good. |

What setup were they running? It seemed that pietsch had no understeer problems. I am guessing Robert did use different springs, they might not have had the magic xray silver spring... ;)

Also I don't see a short lower bumper section yet, all the belts seem the same as the 4, same brake disk/pad as the 8th scale awesome, general reduction of parts seems very good, as per the use of same part numbers everywhere, like all four shocks and CV shafts epic. Last observation is I just don't see a 5th body mount, which is weird when Robert used one at the EC, that looked tacked on, but no effort to revise and add one in the final spec?. But hey, I'm borderline tweaking out waiting now, result of selling off most my nitro gear ages ago, stead fast decision not to buy anything till I got the 5, meaning I have done little nitro at all really overall... thats is correct as you can see on the exploded view, as for the 5th body, just use 1 front bumper post with a long 3mm set screw instead the 3mm flat head screw, i had the same body post used on the mtx4 |
A couple of other interesting things to come out of the Pietsch's setup:
-300,000wt front diff! who said understeer problems :lol: -a massive 120g of weight added to the chassis http://www.mugenseiki.com/download/s..._ettlingen.PDF |

Price jump from Amain is not that big a surprise, I heard the first batch was going to be a shade cheaper than the usual retail price, that and with the US dollar still not that strong, the US retailers were always going to struggle to keep the prices down on something coming out right now... Also if you look at one of the big Japan sites they have actually stopped taking pre-orders now, so likely if you have not ordered by two days ago, you have likely missed out on the first batch... |
