This is a nice racquet. I hit the ROK, with a little lead and 18g Bow gut at 55#. I have an MP-1 90, which is the racquet the RDX replaces.
The RDX is a major improvement over the MP-1 in my view. It has way more feel and more flex without getting whippy or powerless. I did add 3g each to 10 and 2, which added pop without sacrificing much maneuverability.
Volleys nicely, serves well, both flat and kick. It really benefited from the lead on serves. It had TW's usual NXT Max 16g, which is tolerable, but I don't care for it. I bet this racquet would really come alive with 17g gut.
This racquet is really sweet, but I am sticking with my ROKs for now.

with the Muscle Power grommets which is why they opted to do without on the RDX models, MP grommets were the next best thing according to Yonex now they are scrapped and replaced with old traditional grommet system, back to the good old days :wink:
