| Review: |
If you have an A-5 this is the best upgrade you can ever get. The first day I used it on the field I got some of my opponents to retreat within seconds. Unlike the W.A.S. board the A.P.E. rampage board has weather resistant conformal coating and will not give you any trouble in ugly weather. So when it comes to ugly weather you can still play worry free on the field. I've played in snow, light rain, and high humidity weather with this and it still operated fine, no malfunctions at all. Also it has 2 addition firing modes (rampage & X-mode) although I personally just keep it on turbo mode most of the time. Also you don't have to wait for the blinks of orange like on the W.A.S. board, as soon as you push the button to change modes it goes straight to the next mode without any waiting. After 6 and a half months of owning an APE board it's been reliable and has given me no malfunction problems at all. However I had a heck of a time try to bend the leaf to the right point, but it wasn't that bad, I just wish they'd pre-bend it for you. |

| Conclusion: |
If you have an A-5 and are looking for the best fire power upgrade out there for it this is the one. It's a bit pricey, but worth every penny, this is definitely a 10 out of 10 quality product. |
