New Upgrade Kit For RB5 SP And RT5
Kyosho is releasing a new upgrade kit for the RB5 SP/RT5 to improve the balance when using brushless motor. The new transmission parts center the mass of the motor along the center line of the chassis for perfect left/right weight distribution when using brushless motor. Brushless motors are longer than typical brushed motors, for which the RB5/RT5 transmission was originally designed. There'll be new rear suspension arms, motor guard, main gear shaft set, motor plate spacer and new rear hubs too. The part number is UMW517. Check out the attached file.

There's still no news if Kyosho will make have a specific conversion for the truck, but i'm sure the tranny parts are interchangeable. It'll be great if the parts will be available separately.

Oh, there you go! I was not all mistaken when I made my own version then. Many parts for the same thing tough but this kit will make the car 100% balanced L/R. Mine perhaps only 52/48%.

We have been looking at all the new bits with Shin.
There is always something in development but the date by USA for the pdf bits seems too early so dont get your wallets out yet. A new higher body for the FS to accomadate lipo and big ESC is one to look for, Dont forget Shin is the designer of these cars |

Will anyone have a lap top with them? I have a KO setting lead and software but no PC |
