Use a arcsaber 10 (likely to be fake, as it was a gift from china). but i have a b square controlplus in my house. Any body know how good it is? Can't find anything on the web. any way i have another isometric 830 and isometric 30.

LOL and my friend traded a fake acrsaber szlash for my carlton, it not that good – not good at all. So don't by rackets of ebay (yonex).

I have three rackets now .  All of them are Yonex.Because I could easily get and marvelous price to buy.

They are NanoSpeed 800, Armortec 900 Power 3U , Armortec 900 Technique 3U.

I always use NS 800 to pratice, light feel and even balance. I could easily control it.

AT 900P & AT 900T usually use for competition games.

I can hardly control 900P  very well. I still strengthen myself to handle it.

I'm hoping to have new Arcsaber 8DX, Arcsaber 5 and Arcsaber 008 for testing by first week of April. If so, I'll have the written reviews done faster than video.

With the video review, you'll get to see how I test a racket.

I'm quite interested to see how Arc8DX matches up with other rackets.

 

I've actually tried a good number of rackets throughout my 4 years of play. I started with a Yonex Iso 70 Light and then moved on to a SOTX Woven 4. From there I bought a Chaopai Nano 728 from Dink on BCentral. After using those for a while I ended up buying a Yonex Ti10 3rd Gen. I eventually traded my Woven4 and Chaopai for an Arc7 and played with that for a bit.

Unfortunately I never got used to the Arc7 and my Ti10 broke after a while. From there I bought a AT900T. Never got used it so I traded it for a Nanospeed 9k. It was better but I was still yearning for more so I bought a newly released Panda Power Trinity from Dink. Great racket. When the Trinity 2 came out I also bought that.

 

Of all the rackets I've tried my favourites were definitely the Ti10 and Trinity 2. The Trinity 2 is still my go-to racket!

Hi Chris,

 

What do you think of the T1? I bought one and have just about given up with it. It was light and head light, but I messed about with lead tape, changed grip size up and down and still never got it to work for me. Every thing was good except smashes, lots of mishits, and if it did connect they invariably went high. Lent it out to lots of people but very few could smash cleanly with it. On the other hand I tried a U1 and that although not my type of racket ( too much of a club) was fantastic for smashing. Had the distinction of blasting the cork of a brand new shuttle ( plastic) after about 5 smashes. 

Play with a Karakal mtec75  but whilst I love the speed of it, it feels abit mushy and soft. Loved the solid feel to the T1. 

Don't think I will buy a racket that I haven't tried out again.

I thought the T1 was actually pretty good. The specs on mine were 86.6g at the stock BP making it even balance to slightly head heavy. I'm a great fan of the YYTi10 and since the T1 was designed to model the Ti10 I guess it was a pretty decent fit for me. I would say the T1 was really more of an all-rounder type of racket. I never had the opportunity to get a U1 nor U2 to try out, but from what I hear the U1 would probably be too much for me haha.

I actually lent out my T1 to a couple of friends as well but they never mentioned having much trouble with it. It didn't have a crisp smash like some of the other rackets but that could be b/c of I have a set of BG65 on them that's probably dropped down to 22lbs now.
