Now, Tamiya has (as you probably have seen) written that the high traction arms "For high strength and durability, please use item 51279".
They probably mean item 51275 when talking about the front arms, because 51279 are rear arms...
They use the same label text on both front and rear high traction arms...

Anyone tried the db01 "standard" arms (51311)?
Should give some flex and be rather durable.

Guy, any luck with the centre one-way?
the 511 arms (db01r?) are probably as soft as I'd want to go. When I broke the one, I replaced it with a 501x arm and yes it was a lot more durable, but the 511 one took so much punishment I don't see any reason to change - at least on the tracks I race on
