WILL WORK ON MP9! Just need to slightly bevel bottom of A arm hole so threads will start. I like these way better than set screws that EAT your chassis! Kyosho, you can do better than set screws!
Great design and function. Will Not work on Kyosho MP10; can not achieve enough droop.
Really nice product but these do not fit the 8ight X line of cars. They're to small to thread into the arms.
Great product. Quality of titanium is top notch. I use these on all my on and off road vehicles with no issues.
Ordered them for a Kyosho MP10e. Does not work because the head is too thick and caused the car to sit like an onroad car but they fit perfect in my associated RC83.2.
Reviewers generally praise the titanium droop screws for being lightweight, durable, and gentler on chassis plates than steel screws, with the domed head spreading contact. Fit is the main point of disagreement and recurring problem: several owners report they do not work on Kyosho MP9 or MP10 models (the MP9 review is split, with one owner saying it works after bevelling the arm hole), and others find them too small for the 8ight-X. One owner reports good results in Associated RC8.2 and HB Racing D817 cars. Reviewers note the screws are 4x12 mm and that sizing information was previously missing from the listing, leading some buyers to purchase incompatible sets.
