RB5 Questions

[Delyt]

So I just ordered my RB5 and will have it this week and I wanna build it right the first time. I have already ordered all Tungsten Carbidediff balls and thrust balls from acer racing so what is the best Diff grease to use and best thrust grease to use?
Also will the B4 wing fit onto the RB5? and are there any other bodies that fit the RB5 other then the one supplied by Kyosho?

i used the kit grease and the diff is very free with ceramic balls. you could always use associated grease which is good.

no idea about the shells as i like the kit one!

there is a build tips thread in the Kyosho section on here where people have listed things to change when building the car.

a good one is the rear inboard ball studs for the camber link. i changed to cyclone ones that have a hex in the head, as you can't get near the kit ones with a hex driver with out taking off the rear end!

be careful using the cyclone ball studs, as they tend to break off easily when wrenched too hard.
