R/C Tech Forums - SC10 Thread

I just bought a bag of toe blocks that had the shims in there. the bag had the blocks with 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, and 4 degrees of toe and it had shims for 1 and 2 degrees of antisquat.

Yes those are the new shims though . the old ones actually had a hole so the 3/16 x3/8 screw would hold it better . the new ones just slide in and out ! :deathstar

do you guys cut extra holes in the rear of the body to prevent parashuting?

I did and it does help some. I know guys that run without too, if you keep the truck level in doesn't come in to play as much.

I noticed most of the air gets caught under the hood. I drilled about 10 3/8ths hole in the hood and helped alot with the nose up problem. on a windy day, outdoor, there's no stoping the parachute affect tho.

I did get the strc 1* hubs. Oh well I guess I'll save them for the outdoor tracks. Our indoor clay track shouldnt require that much rear toe.

Sure there is. If you're jumping into the wind on a big jump, stay on the throttle and you can nail a backflip :lol:

Well crap. If you were running Losi shocks ThunderbirdJunkie could tell you what to run on a bumpy blown out 1/8 track :(

With Losi shocks, red springs front and rear, and 30 wt oil up front and 35 out back...anybody able to translate that into Associatedese?

Blue springs front, Green springs rear, 35wt.
Truck is planted and often saves itself.

On bumpy tracks I run Blue/Silver 35wt front and green 30wt rear. Great forward traction and soaks up the bumps pretty good. If the track is smoother I increase front spring rates and go 40wt front/35wt rear. I always keep the 5wt difference between front and rear for forward traction.

I see what you mean. I always cut the end of the hole anyway so I could slide it in and out too. It rarely came out, and if it did it was just a little on one side. I'd just loosen the screw more and push it back in and retighten.
