    Even Yonex authorized retailer don't know why this model is not listed in their lineup.

    Finally got to play with it for a good 4 hours or so. My shoulder was hurting so I didn't get to test how good it is power wise, but it has very good speed and control. It felt faster the 700FX, a bit slower than the FB. Drives were surprisingly good and didn't take much effort. Drops were easier compared to the first few times with the FB. Can't comment on clears or smashes until I can do an overhand swing without hurting the joint between shoulder and arm.

    With a light head racket, power will definitely suffered unless you have a very strong wrist power.

    Maybe I misunderstood but this racket is shown towards POWER side in the Yonex chart so I assume Power is good?

    Not too sure about this but the NR definitely not as powerful as my other Arcs and Voltaic series.

    interesting... doesn't sound like a head light racket as written on the shaft, did you remove the original grip before you took that measurements ?

    Got to play with it again last night. Shoulder still isn't fully healed but I was still able to generate some decent smashes. I'm normally not a heavy smasher so my smashes are passable but nothing special. I'd probably say they're about as strong as with my NS 7700, maybe a bit stronger once my shoulder heals and I can play without holding back as much. But so far, the feel of the racket is very solid and it's not tiring to play with. One thing I've noticed though is that my net drop is a bit off. It's a bit more bouncy than normal, could be due to the different weight of the racket. Might just take some time to get used to it.

    above measurement did with original grip.
    but I am not too sure about the 300mm BP after strung,
    too bad original grip already removed now...

    Some playing experience here I would conclude that I love it,
    Both of mine is in 4UG6.
    Power section is sure more than the Arc-FB I own before,
    drive I would say even or very close to Arc-FB,
    drop shot are even with Arc-FB,
    The netting is a tad less accurate compare to FB, I guess cause of the shaft stiffness between two.

    Overall, this is good replacement for my broken Arc-FB,
    hopefully it don't break as fast as my FB.

    I've been playing with it a good amount of times the past couple weeks. I still really like it and am planning on getting a 4UG5 to test the difference. I prefer this over the FB even though the FB allowed me to block shots that I normally wouldn't be able to.

    Got in a few good sessions with the 4UG5 the past week and a half. Being a little lighter, it's easier to maneuver on quick shots but also a little less powerful. I'll need to play with it a bit more to see if I can find any major differences. Right now they both feel very close, but I would probably prefer the 3U for the extra power since it still feels fast and defense with it is great.
