I like everything else they have put out thus far for the sc10 except the collars. I think threaded collars would have been alot nicer. Im glad I got the GHEA collars and didnt wait for these.

Question for anyone running a Castle Creations 10amp BEC with a Savox Servo and a Spektrum RX?

What voltage did you set the BEC too?

Default is 5.1v and I know the servo can take 6.0 volts... but when can the RX take>?

6v is the norm. Any higher and it'll shorten the life span of your servo.

I'm running 5000 and I like it. My home track is outdoor, medium traction.

Ordered an RS yesterday. Debated between that and a XXX-SCT, but Tower's $50 discount and the RS's brushless motor pushed me over the edge. I hope it's not sacrilege, but I'm still thinking of getting an SCT roller, just cuz it's so cheap.
Are these cars still SAE, or all they metric now?

I use some of that aluminum foil heat duct tape, it's very thin, very durable and doesn't grab the tires. You can get it at most hardware stores. I don't have enough posts to give you a link but if you google "aluminum foil tape" you will see what I use.
