I bet it would, they are almost identical.

Great idea, too late for mine though:-(

All recent 'paids' are shipping today.

Just for the hell of it I made a few of these with more angle, very few.
I have a couple 25 degree clockers and a couple 30 degree clockers.

You would have to decide if this angle would work for you. 30 degrees is nice for the rear but straight upper links will bind with the case under compression.
30 degrees in the front leaves very little room for steering horn and servo.

I have read that 22* is a good clocking angle, would you happen to have or possibly be able to make a tool for that angle for someone that couldn't drill a straight hole to save their life?

I'm finished with this operation, all the clockers are done with respective angles, 20*, 25* and 30*.
The 20* will work with zero issues.
The 25* will work with zero issues for the rear and minimal issues for the steering.
The 30* will run the front and rear uppers into the case unless the links are modded. Plus the steering servo will need to be moved around for a better location, this is dependant on tie rod and knuckle options.

If you're comfortable with a subtle mod the 20* is great.
If you're comfortable with simple clearance fabs go with the 25*.

Hey Doug, thanks for all the great tips and berg info yesterday. The G-spot's a great place to crawl. I ordered up some berg axles and can't wait to try out your clocking fixture. Once again, genius idea!

I've got lots more testing to get the Kyosho sorted out. See ya next weekend.

Hey Ken, thanks. It was a fun day at G-tech, I'm sure I'll be out there this weekend too. And yes, don't give up on the Kyosho, that thing is bad ass!


All Pms have been returned and recent 'paids' went out Friday.

Thanks guys

All recent clockers mailed out today.

Just recently I devised a new version of the Berg Clocker.
Just a few are out there now and hopefully some opinions will come back about them.
