I'm in the same boat with you Dicky. For the moment I have chosen to run the solid center shaft as I just lose too much power using the CD. I don't think that there is a way to get the revo CD to work well using the 1Y on 5s as it is just too much power for it to handle.

I have found that by using a little punch control and carefully setting the slipper that so long as I don't nail the throttle the wheelies are not too big a problem. I'm also toying with a couple ideas for using a 1/8 scale CD which will handle the power better and should be a much better solution.
