I'd been using a STIGA all-round blade that someone gave me, so I'll compare it to that. As you'd expect from an offensive blade, the FC has a better feel when you hit the ball. The extension is completely different. Swing at max power and it just flies lol
Like others have mentioned, close-to-the-table exchanges are easy, but the extension from mid-distance and away from the table is also great. That said, rather than swinging all out, it lands nicely when you control it at around 70-80% power.
Spin is easy to generate too, but it's weaker than with an all-round blade. That probably also depends on the rubber choice though lol
Control is relatively easy. Though as I mentioned above, I can't really control it at max power lolOverall, I think it's a very easy racket to use.

This is my impression after using it for about a year while acting as a practice partner for an elementary school table tennis club.
Before R47, I had the VEGA series on my forehand side, so this is a comparison against that.
R47 is clearly faster. Even with a light swing, the ball just flew off. You can easily drive it hard into the opponent's court even attacking from away from the table. That said, control is difficult. I guess that's the price you pay for such good spring.
The topspin drive can be hit with just a light brush too.
Serves can carry solid spin, and pushes cut properly as well.
Control might be tough until you get used to it. If you swing full power right from the start, it goes long. But if you swing properly and make clean contact, it goes where you aim.
It's a good rubber for someone who has properly built up their technique and worked their way up through tension rubbers, but it's definitely not a rubber for beginners.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
