Yonex Nanoray 700 FX / 700 RP (NR700FX / NR700RP)

**Badmintan** · 09-07-2011, 08:47 AM

In summary, the differences or unique selling point of the Nanoray series:

1) x-Fullerene in the shaft vs. Fullerene in Nanospeed series

2) (New Aero head) Tapered frame vs. non-tapered frame.

OR as the pictures says

NR700 RP is only
5% more repulsive (shorter contact time?)
2% more maneuverability (control)
2% more flight distance (power?)

While FX is
2% more repulsion (longer contact time? more flexible)
3% more maneuverability (control)
4% more flight distance (power?)

While the shafts would be
4% more repulsive
6% stiffer

than a conventional racquet (Nanospeed as stated). I assume this means in comparison to what its replacing, NS7000? surely not NS9900 :S

I'd go try for a stiff NR80 since I'm in love with VT5 for a mid-price yonex

For me such 5> is not consider design improvement at all but design tolerance !!Above 10> which make more value addedPurely some marketing gimmick! Changing color from wide body frame....

How much longer, if at all, is the FX shaft?

All Yonex prices in the US are higher than anyone should afford

i have seen it and touch it personally from a baddy shop.
Its nothing but just a widebody version
i cant see it going to be faster than nanospeed series or heavier head than VT80...
yonex just offering a new family as option to those who fancy widebody frame...
