Awesome, thanks for taking the time! Car seems to change direction swiftly and looks very flat in the chicanes!

The car looked good to my amateur eye and seemed to improve with each change made to it. When I got there the car looked like it was under steering and well balanced but not that quick. The last run I saw with some changes made and the car looked a bit more on the edge but very quick around the corners with the under steer dialled out.

Is there a definitive release date for the yz2 yet ?
Can you run it with saddles or do you need the square lipos ?

Set-up sheet shows saddles and Yokomo don't offer a square pack, so I would assume saddles will work.

Great vids, Philim, thanks for sharing!

Aren't square lipos the same size as saddles when side by side?

MB models will have in stock in after 9th Jan. It has been released already in Japan. Delivery into Europe is for 9th.

It will take saddles/square and a shorty. See this post: http://www.oople.com/forums/showpost...1&postcount=94

This car looks very planted at those viedeos!


Do you think, there will be coming an 3 gear transmission for the yz-2, as well?
Because when you look at the body shell, the opposit side of the spur/motor plate bubble (sorry, i don't know how to describe it better in english, i hope you understand), looks the same, or do you think, this is just for an symetrical look!?
