Talk to Pete. He should have a few of the ones TFL made for me. Not sure if he finished adjusting the curve on them (hint, hint Pete). If you want one we will talk price but I can assure you it will be a lot less then VC AND you won't have to wait 6-8 months

I sent them this morning. Should have them tomorrow. The first (3) used the 'old' method of bending which required some scotch brite to clean them up. The rest of them looked good out of the gate.

Give them a try. They may need more curve.

Talk to Pete. He should have a few

A few? I heard it was approximately........a bunch more than a few.

Tony, I put one of these on my P Sport Whip. They can hold at terminal velocity.

Just fyi. Freddy and I are heading to the RC clubhouse tomorrow (thurs) after lunch (taking a half day) to goof around. Going to be running 1/8th and 1/10th buggy.

I think the 'old method' has slightly more curve to it. The new method (jamming a thin pc of al between the rollers) seemed to be more consistent from part to part, but slightly less curve. Should be interesting to see if they work.
