iso, i wonder if the zx-5 in your country and mine are different, of course over here most of the zx-5 are RTRs. according to my local hobby shop owner, the zx-5 uses 62.5 in front and 65.5 in rear. i actually bought 3racing 62.5, only a pair. i have just done a test fit on my optima mid, and i found this.
keep in mind the ball diff outdrive on the optima mid and lazer is the same.
look at the first photo, lazer zx arms, with ZX c hub, with 62.5 CVD. in the second photo, you see that the CVD bone end cannot go in any further, and the camber angle at arms level is zero ! you cant add any camber at all. thats becuase the kyosho ball diff has a step machined into it to prevent further travel than what you see in the picture. also notice in the 1st picture the distance the hex are from the arm edge, which is quite close. i beleive a 60.5 would be perfect here.
Look at the 3rd picture, its the ZX arms mounted with ZX-5 c hub with a 7 marked on it. Now look at picture 4. Notice that the 62.5 CVD bone end is further from the inside, that means i have more sliding space. That means the 62.5 CVD is perfect with ZX-5 c hub. however the ZX-5 hub needs to be grounded at the lower end cause its actually interfering with the arm ! i couldnt push the c hub inwards at the top, that means also no negative camber. Also notice in picture 3 how far out is the hex from the arm edge.
Lastly look at the last photo,showing ZX arm with ZX-5 hub LA304. in my next post, look at the picture. The 62.5 bone cannot go in any further, that means also cant adjust more negative camber. Conclusion is i also have to use 60.5 in the rear with ZX-5 hubs. i am waiting for LA-28 to arrive to test if the 62.5 will be perfect for it.
