ok, enough already. I would hate it if someone who reads here take offense to to those statements... Some might think they are racist.

I know he didn't. But I am aware that there are some from Kyosho Japan who follow this forum and I don't want them to get the wrong idea...

Ok guys. I already posted this in my own thread, I'll just give some info about this missing parts here as well. I got my KRF from AMain and it has this sticker on the center (resealed by kyosho america). Upon inspection, the 2 shafts are packaged seperately from the rest of the bags.

So...definitely, Kyosho America is addressing this oversight and being corrected accordingly. Future kits won't have this problem anymore.

KA hopes that is the case. It IS possible that there are a couple sitting in hobby shops that got through before the spot checks.

Either way, glad you got yours and any other issues will be dealt with immediately.

for your 55T try a 23 spur up to 26, also check your esc settings. do you have the high speed gears ?
