Kyosho FW05-R/FW05RR Performance Graphite Steering Plate FW05-011 by 3Racing  [FW05-011]

Graphite upgrade plate for FW05 steering

This graphite steering plate is an RC-scale replacement part intended for Kyosho FW05-R and FW05RR chassis, identified as FW05-011. As a drop-in upgrade it targets front-end rigidity to deliver steadier steering inputs while keeping the original geometry unchanged.

Fitment is user-friendly: remove the stock plate, align the replacement to the existing chassis holes and refit the factory fasteners, checking servo horn and link clearances before powering up. No chassis rework is normally required when mounting on compatible FW05-R or FW05RR setups.

Technically, the graphite element lowers compliance in the steering stack which can make the car respond sharper at turn-in and maintain consistent feedback under load. Many hobbyists fit this to refine handling balance without swapping tyres or suspension settings. Regularly inspect for fine cracks and confirm fastener torque during routine checks.
