I also added a little more weight then i have been reading so far. 2.5 ounces in rear and 2 oz in front. I am also running 7000 weight diff fluid... And every factory team part. And i have to say that my trick slash couldnt hold a candle to this thing. very planted, easy to drive, takes the rough, fly's nice, hands down way better truck.. IMO...

Any trouble getting the ride height set with the extra, extra weight?

I used all of the kit spring spacers just to get it leveled out with 3 oz extra.

I bet yours is really planted with the weight.

well i have the factory team shocks that are threaded.. Im running silver springs on rear and golds on front. 35wt front oil and 30wt rear. And yes, very planted. I race on a slightly blown out 8thscale track. And it soaks up the bumps very well. Our slash class is pretty big with 10 to 16 entry's on club nites. I am the first with the sc10, and am already hearing the whinning. Although our rules are, core truck, tires, and body. thats it. So for now i said " i wont collect the hobby bucks"....lol.

This thread moves fast.

Got it done and had a day of track time to get it drivable. Im use to a t4 so this thing rolls around like crazy. Once I got that settled down I fell in love with the steering. The gobs of rear traction really helped the front too. Flys good, its light, all around a home run. For anybody who thought this would out perform a t4 sorry. Not gonna happen. I do think that this tire size is the limiting factor in this class. You can only go as fast as the tire will let you. I love that. Really levels the playing field. we had 5 new sc10 at the track and all were with in .5 sec/lap for fast lap.

We have a mod slash class already so were gona switch the name to pro2 and limit to 13.5. This way we dont bother the slash class. Hope fully it will cut down on some of the crying ?

Thaks CUDA i wanted to stick with a Trophy Truck/Corr Truck paint scheme.
BTW where are you running yours at????? I am gonna test mine on my backyard track and then probobly venture to Pegasus or OCRC to see how does.

Thanks everyone for the tips but I had a question about the shocks. How much rebound should they have when you push them in and does anyone have any tips on building them?

Dragonfueled 04-12-2009 02:29 PM

Hey cuda where you running the lower shock position inner outer? Also what exactly is the correct ride height?

Dragonfueled 04-12-2009 02:36 PM

I might try those castor blocks also. I have no off throttle steering and really tail happy on throttle steering. I added weight like you said but the truck still looks more like a drift car LOL

DiFabio42 04-12-2009 02:56 PM

For the guys who already have a SC10. I have one question.

What is EVERYTHING you need to get this truck running?

Radio + Reviever
Motor + ESC
Batteries
Shock Oil
Pinion
Differential Oil

Am I missing anything?

move your battery back some. I would look at the thickness of the t4 spacers and use that as a gauge for how much. Try a spacer at a time.

Anyone having any trouble with sensor cables not reaching the motor? I have an LRP setup, and I guess I need to order a longer sensor cable. Anyone know where to get one long enough?
