KYOSHO FW05-R/FW05RR Graphite Front Suspension Plate FW05-006 by 3Racing  [FW05-006]

Reinforced front arm plate for FW05 range

This graphite front A-arms plate is a direct-fit upgrade for KYOSHO FW05-R and FW05RR chassis, replacing the stock front arm mounting surface with a stiffer graphite panel. It serves as a structural front-end component and alters steering feedback and suspension characteristics without changing the basic geometry.

Compatibility is restricted to KYOSHO FW05-R and FW05RR as noted in the product title. The graphite construction reduces weight and better controls flex versus many plastic parts, so the plate is suited to 1/10-scale on-road tuning where a firmer front response is required.

Installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with routine chassis servicing: remove the body, access the front suspension, remove the existing mounting plate or brace, and fit the graphite plate using the original fastener points. Check A-arm and steering alignments before final tightening and carry out a short trial to assess handling and trim.

In tuning terms, fitting a graphite front plate usually sharpens steering feel and reduces undesired flex on corner entry. Introduce small, single-parameter setup changes to isolate the plate's contribution when adjusting damping, roll stiffness or toe.
