Default EX5UR replacement trigger?

Hi,

Can you buy a replacement adjustable trigger for the Ko EX5ur? It is annoying that have to reach forward to brake.

Thanks

Hi just slip a peice of silicone fule line hose that's used for nitro cars on the reverse brake side of the trigger this will take out most of the play.

I did that but it still feels like you are reaching for the brake. Thought about trying to heat it gently and bend it, but thought this may be a bad idea.

I did that on mine. I drive with my finger tip and there were times I missed the brake because it's so far away. I heated up the brake side of the trigger and bent it in and slightly toward the back of the radio.

Has it been ok since then?
