R/C Tech Forums - SC10 Thread

I have a quick question, my slipper clutch keeps glazing my pads and I have the FT V2 slipper clutch kit in my sc10, and yet it keeps slipping and glazing up my pads every run, and i aint even abusive to the truck. I have a 10.5 speedpassion motor and speedo in it, I rebuilt the gear diff a month ago and its been doing this for 7 months now, I have to sand the pads because if I dont they glaze up after every run. I just ordered the 4wd SC10 high torque pads to see if this will fix it, and no even if I tighten on the slipper alot it still glazes up my slipper pads. The only time i gun it is at the start of a race, but I've seen guys with 10.5s or 8.5 sc10's race and never sand down their slipper pads each race. Any help would be appreciated.

Keep tightening down on your slipper. You shouldn't hear the slipper working at all - if you hear it whining, it's too loose, and that will cause glazing.

Dunno, bro. Only been building AE shocks since the B2 came out. You know...back when they were good?

You know what they say when you assume:rolleyes:

Savox servos perform well for a budget servo, but they suck a lot of juice. ThunderbirdJunkie needed to go beyond a capacitor and run a BEC on his.

anything around 120-150oz and less than .1 is good for the sc10. I would still stay with metal gears and glue ur servo saver together or upgrade to aluminum bellcrank to get the most response

Thanks guys for your responses. I'll check both out.

What do you guys think of this gearing on this set up:

Tekin RS-PRO - 8.5t Redline
84/17

Think I should gear up on the pinion? I've seen Kody Numedahl's set up running a 20t on his 8.5. Although, his gearing was 87/20. Not 84/17 -- on loose dirt outside track (large track)

Which is what I'll be running on.

Think I'm undergeared with a 17?

Whats a good baseline for dirt? I'm running stock with 1/8 of a turn counterclockwise atm...

From reading the manual, the nose is supposed to lift slightly when you apply the throttle when holding the rear tires down?

Good for the moderator! We do not need multiple threads on the same vehicle. BTW, this is the thread for the 2wd SC10.

Regardless, this is the wrong thread as your pic shows a Sc10 4wd kit, and this is the Sc10 2wd thread...The new 4wd thread for the Team Ae sct is here and seems decent so far:

Wait for AE to get the parts out for the SC10 RS and use those parts on your FT.

But isnt the slippers job too adjust how much power is being put to the ground so there isnt a burst of power making the truck tires spin all the time depending on the track? Im running at a loose low grip track so i do need the slipper to work properly. Well i'll try this and see by the way will the 2wd high torque slipper pads work on the 2wd? Reason i ask is because even tho it says 2wd sc10 the holes on the 4wd pads look smaller then the 2wd pads, so will i have to cut them out so they fit or is the pic on AE's website mis leading?
