Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Can I use this on an older RB5 chassis?

It fits many RB5 variants including recent ULTIMA RB5 models; verify your chassis mounting points match the plate's hole pattern before ordering.

Does gunmetal resist wear better than aluminium?

Gunmetal offers a tougher mounting surface that can withstand repeated stress and heat better than some aluminium alloys, improving longevity around the motor area.

Will this affect gear mesh settings?

The plate itself does not change gear ratios, but its stiffer mount can help keep gear mesh more consistent by reducing movement under load.

Is any prep needed before painting?

If you plan to paint the plate, clean with a degreaser and use primer suited for metal to ensure good adhesion. Keep mounting faces free of coating to preserve fit.
