Cain, here's what I run on my SCT.

Here's the track I based it off of (Motorama 2017)

I am ordering the new springs and ackerman next week so I'll probably switch up to something closer to what Joe ran at Motorama (it's on Tekno's site).

Lf springs
I have a .3 and am running the stock springs that came in the kit.
Installed the upgraded steering system as well as the rear hubs. Running 30 weight Losi oil in frt and 50 in rear.
What do you all recommend for the new springs frt
and rear??? Track is hard pack and gets dry slick. The frt end springs are to stiff and rear is to soft. Are pink frts and green rear the way to go? Rear of chassis is getting marked up. Frt is good. Collars are set to lowest setting in frt and are cranked up in the rear.

So I did some more racing and I think I got my truck almost exactly like I want it to feel.
One of the biggest changes I made was playing with rear roll center. Before I was running the front pill on the lowest position for "Zero" antisquat up front, but looking at the setups after doing some more research on antisquat, when you have say the RF pill at the lowest position on the alloy block, and the RR pill at say the highest position, is that what is called "pro squat"?
I ended up going with the RF pill at the middle position, and then the RR at middle but half degree toe in and it felt really good. It transitioned turns better without breaking free suddenly but I had more traction on power.
I just want a hair bit more offpower steering, using AE diff oils and assuming the setups I am seeing are using PT racing, I think the AE is supposed to feel thicker so I may go to 10-10-5 versus the 15-15-5 I am using now.
I'll post my full setup tonight but the pill locations relative to anti-squat and pro-squat I am curious on. Is there a chart out there that shows the different combos?

There is a chart that explains the pill positions at the bottom of the setup sheets.

Hey folks. 1st post on this forum and new to the Tekno so be nice - haha Actually kind of new to the RC world.
Just started racing a 4wd slash a couple of months back and recently decided to get a Tekno. My buddy sold me a used EB48SL and I want to convert it to the SCT410.3. There isn't a 1/8 scale buggy class on race nights.
My question is: What parts do I need to convert it to the SCT410.3. I know I need bumpers, body mounts and rims & tires.
What else will I need?
Any suggestions on what I should hop up from the get go?
Thanks a ton in advance.....

Thanks for the info and I see the pills charts on the bottom.
I guess my question is more so to get a better understanding of how the angle of the pin possibly affects things.
So for example, I have the zero antisquat setting up front, but the max high pill setting in the rear giving that downward sloping angle going Rear to Front. I am assuming Roll Center, etc.
Something like this kind of chart is what I am thinking:

Also shopping for a 4WD SC truck - Given this truck won't be replaced anytime soon, how is it holding up against other trucks in the class? I race AE stuff but since they don't offer a race spec kit in this class, would I be better off going with a Tekno or Losi (if there is any comparable parts or "feel"). Also, what truck would last the longest in terms of parts support (I tend to get a new truck not very often. The class is pretty popular by me and on a small to medium sized outdoor track that is a loose redish type dirt (like baseball diamond dirt kinda) that is loose but also slick at the same time and pretty rough in the turns. My AE B5FL dances around the track but my 1/8 scale 777-e buggy gets upset by the bumpiness and I have a hard time clearing the big triple consistently.
Also will be running on an indoor clay track with high grip surface and they run slicks.
Thanks!
