Nick Serabyn Posted February 16, 2019 Report Share Posted February 16, 2019 Ops who've used both the G-70X and the G70 with the X upgrade, have you noticed a difference in performance or reliability? Any other differences noticed? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacek Drofiak Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 I join the question. Is it worth upgrading the G70 to G70x. I heard that after the upgrade to X it does not work the same as the new G 70x? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Jerry Holway Posted November 6, 2019 Premium Members Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 There are small mechanical differences in the G-70X that the G-70 (upgraded or not) does not have, that make for some subtle improvements in performance. The upgraded G-70 is pretty darn close in performance, so if there's a big difference in price, I suggest you go for the G-70 upgraded. Tuning either arm correctly for ride is very important, so read the manual and play with the ride control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacek Drofiak Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 Thanks Jerry for your feedback, means a lot to me. I noticed that on the G-70 during run shots vibrations are transferred to the post. After talking with a colleague who worked on G-70 and G-70X after upgrade and new G-70X. He says that G-70 and G-70X after upgrade still transfer vibrations, only new G-70X there is no vibrations problem. That's why I think between buying used Luna Arm for run shots and leaving G-70 without upgrade or do only g-70 upgrade. But I'm not sure if these little mechanical differences you mentioned are causing the vibration problem in G-70 and G-70X after upgrade?

Premium Members Jerry Holway Posted November 7, 2019 Premium Members Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 I doubt it... same bearings in upgrade and G70X, so unless an arm has been damaged in some way, both should absorb vibrations just fine.

Jacek Drofiak Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 Ok, thanks. So upgrade should be the right way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
