I have used the standard NT1 disk, the new light Xray disk and the CSO lightweight disk. All of them seem to have considerable fade throughout the mains.

I have also tried the ferrodo brake pad, but after each qual, I end up without brakes

I have tried KM brakepads, but if I force them enough, they will get very hot and one of the brake pads will twist (one on the outside).

I even tried using one side with the KM brake pad and the other with a mugen 1/8th buggy brake pad and still had fading (less though).

Next step is to find Kyosho's APP brake pad since it was the only car I did not feel it had brake fading...

Any other solutions?? Is there any brake pad out there that will work better?
I haven't had any issue with the KM ones, been pretty happy with those. Which disk did you use them with? Maybe you don't have enough distance between the disk and the pads, or maybe the KM's weren't well glued that you received. Just trying to brainstorm because I was really happy with them and had a totally different experience.
