Why can't they up the carbon in the longer chassis so it could stiffen the chassis? If the B4 plastic conversion of the t4 is working. I don't see why the Kyosho can't work?

i mean the problem is with the set up station it needs bushing to fit the car wheel shaft.

yup, thats the system he/we have the hole is bigger than the RB5s shaft, so when you tighten the nut, we're not sure if its centered correctly or not!!!
we also tried to use it for a Losi 22 and the hole is smaller than the shaft??!!!

do you use a special bushing or just as it is and tighten the wheel nut and its good to go??

cheers

Ediaz - that info came straight from kyosho in a email
Key-nitro, I just stick the axle in and tighten the nut, if its off a bit its not gonna change number as long as the hex is tight to the gauge
