You tell'em Scotty. Lol. I have asked a lot of questions on this site and every time I do I get an answer within a couple hours. Only difference is I do everything in my power to fix it myself before asking for help. Guess its a pride thing. If it sounds like grinding guess what it's prob grinding. Take it a part

I like the whole placement of the esc, transponder, and reciever. Its nice and clean. What fan is that? Also, with the 3800kv and Sidewinder esc, Ive managed to beat some of the tekins on the straights. I added a little power to the motor using the castle link setup. Another way to get a slight increase in speed is to turn epa up on channel two(channel two is your esc). I put mine up to 120 percent and I feel like the truck is taking longer to get up the speed but it gets to a higher speed when it does. The 3800 is one heck of a motor for the price. :nod:

well looks like people on this forums are still unwilling to answer simple questions. simple question and i'm told to read hundreds of pages of what will be mostly useless blabber. and you don't research about presents your given, they're surprises. Its such a pity that the only good rc forum is full of feminine cleaning products and the bag they came in also.
Just what you to know many that use RcTech care and want to help you .... |

Sorry but even at $12 those Jconcept wheel nuts are a waste of money IMHO. If your steel nyloc nuts are coming loose just replace them. Its like $2 for a package. I could replace them every other race for the summer and still be cheaper than the Jconcepts.
Dont get me wrong they are nice. Just not worth it imho.

Have you posted any pics of possible problems you think may be the cause of your noise? Have you done anything to the truck besides posting on here on what we think can be the problem? Cause we have X-ray vision and can see through the internet at your truck and why would you not research presents you are given? You just basically saved the cost of the truck. so Maybe the person who gave it to you should do the research cause they bought it? Oh look, not even 5 mins of my time with using google. http://www.rctech.net/forum/rookie-z...ing-issue.html http://www.rcshortcourse.com/forum/t...pped-sc10.html https://www.google.com/#hl=en&output...w=1280&bih=681 That so hard? Again. Have you taken anything apart to see if there is a problem? anything broken? you are coming on here asking for someone to fix it for you or tell you what is wrong with it without giving us ANY info or pics of anything. We aren't your babysitter we aren't getting paid to fix your truck. Hope those links help and you get the truck fixed and back to playing with it.. If you need help knowing how to remove it here Cick Me. |

So, just a quick question. I hate to keep talking about the Losi bb springs, but I just want to get something straight before I make an order. Currently I am running AE gray rear springs (2.33lbs) and red front springs (3.9lbs). So, when I switch over to the Losi springs, I plan on ordering the Pinks for the rear (#5168 2.3lbs). But, I'm not quite sure which one fits the fronts and match the AE red spring rate?
Is it like the TLR5176 blue spring (3.8lb)... or is this just for buggies? Also, I noticed someone said last week that even though the rates are the same between the AE and Losi springs, that they are completely different. Has anyone else had this problem? I mean, I understand they probably aren't exactly the same.. but are they close enough that I can go off of the lb. rating? Thanks for your help guys, Im reallyyy sorry to talk about Losi springs again, I'm sure everyone hates me now, haha :nod: |

I encourage everyone to instead of giving the usual "go search the thread" response to repeat questions, to just ignore the poster all together and let the guy figure it out for himself. As you can see, anything short of an immediate specific answer is unacceptable to these guys anyway. |

I am running Silver Rear Losi BB springs on the front of my SC10. You need to cut off .060" of the eye let to the shock shaft and run 2-.030" shock limiters on the outside of the shaft to limit up travel. With the Losi BB silver in the front at no preload I have 28mm ride height. The yellow rear springs are 1/4" longer than the silver. I am not sure how they will fit

Thanks for your help guys, Im reallyyy sorry to talk about Losi springs again, I'm sure everyone hates me now, haha :nod: Once home get a small digital scale and place it on a drill press. Set the drill press to compress the spring 20% of it's full height. Write down the reading. Next, compress it about 50% of it's full height. Write down the reading. Calculate your spring rate from there. Go back to the track and thank your Losi buddy. Go to the counter at the hobby shop and order some springs. It's not the easiest way but it's dead accurate. Addendum- this also works for Kyosho springs. |

I would go over to a Losi guy and tell him how cool his suspension looks out on the track. Then ask him if you can take a couple springs home until next race day.
