I have several sets of the Mini shocks, but do not like them. Because of the small oil volume, the shock action can be erratic. They are okay on the higher grip tracks, but do not work as well on parking lot or outdoor asphalt tracks which are usual lower grip. These surfaces usually require softer springs and more suspension travel. A situation that does not favor the small Mini shocks.

In the Mini shock, your choices are very limited and you can't get around the smaller oil volume. If you analyze it, you'll be able to figure out why the smaller oil volume can work against you in some cases and for you in others.

Are the M0-5 kit springs, the 3 white sets with a blue, red and yellow dot on them, the same size and weight as the Tamiya TRF Springs, ie the red (53630), Yellow and Blue (53632) srings etc.
Thanks.

Hi Guys
Bit new to this forum. Been racing my m05 here in the uk for 5 years now. I'm running a blinged s spec. My club has just changed to brush less to m chassis class.
Took my m05 apart last night to fit new 3 racing gear diff.... then realised i was missing 2 rather large bearings needed??? either side of the out drives! why 3 racing don't include this in the kit is beyond me?? anyhow had to build her back up with the original kit diff, re lubed.
I just hope the kit diff holds up with the new torque from the hobbywing 13t brushless combo.
Any tips on running kit diff with brush less system for longevity?
Cheers
Damien.
