The one thing I do like about it , is that it only uses two screws for the rear brace connection to the chasssis. And its about a inch shorter where its screwed down on the chassis. But I'm thinking it might be a little rigid. Cool design though.

My original one was using the three screws ,but I had no problem with so i deleted it out to save weight also this brace only is .9 oz heavier than the stcck ones.

Giorgio- That is definately weird. When did you get the spektrum? They had some issues with the KO stuff with the first 2-3 versions of the software. I have the latest batch and its works great with all my cars. i even have it in a T4 with a LRP ESC and the KO servo which is supposed to be like the worst for them. No problems whatsoever...

I honestly think you had a bad spktrum. You did have the radio on normal correct? I know you cannot use it on th faster speed with the spektrum...

I use it with the Sanwa M8. Is there a fast or normal mode with that? Or just standard? The throttle servo dying , and stuck locked I dont think is from radio problems, but the steering servo wabbling the whole time, means defenite electrical issues. How would I know if my spektrum is bad? It doesn't glitch or dye out or anything. The failsafe works. I just had a couple runaways once or twice and now that I think of it I had servos dying then working but that was on a rainy race day. WHat do you think?

I'd have to point to the Spektrum...as I'm not sure how you can suggest it's a digital servo problem. Been running years with my digital steering JR 8450/8550 (depends on use) and 4750 on the throttle. I use an R1 w/ PCM. I've had big fat ZERO problems.

I really don't understand the big joy of the Spektrum, because I know I wouldn't want the connection between my radio and car jumping frequencies every few seconds. You shouldn't take a look at what else the FCC allows on the 2.4-5.8Ghz bands, it's astounding!

I have had many technitians tell me that digital servos are more sesebtable to break and glitch from vibration. They were suggested to me for onroad cars. But I figured I would give them a try with my Spektrum. All I know is I ran my 94359's and had zero problems. Then I ran these 125 dollar a peice Ko Propo Digital 2364 ICS Servos and have had nothing but problems. Thats how I suggest it. Just becuase you have had a big fat ZERO problems doesn't mean anything to me. I go by what works for me, not what you tell me what works. Yah know what I mean.

I was warned to never use a digital in an off road nitro car or truck as they take a thrashing and are more prone to failure.
