They're not on his site. You'll need to send a pm or email to Rockshow.

I figured he would have them on there by now. I had to send him an email to get mine and he said they were available that week and they would be on the site by the next week.

Mip's are heavy aint they.

The MIPs do not weigh that much maybe twice as much as the stock drive shafts. Well worth the money.

I just cut the stock drive shaft and put it inside a ped shaft then pinned it with a screw. The ped shafts are to big around and hit everthing plus thay are alittle heavyer if you use steel yoke's.

I've seen other people break them, but I've been running the same set of stock shafts for 2 full seasons of local comps plus Motorama and ECC and many many more practice days and have yet to break a stock drive shaft.

Front and rear. The entire kit.


My past mini I never broke a shaft. I'm now running the blue can holmes motor on a 350mah 3s and I snapped a stocker on the first course around gate 7 like it was a toothpick. So I picked up some MIPs.

You are only adding 10 grams from the stock shafts, and twice the strength. Some things we just have to sacrifice.
