No rubbing for me, just have pay close attention to where drill the mount holes and how high you run the body. Only thing that sucks about the the flow-tek is that there aren't holes marked just for the SC10 that I can find, I always have to be a little to the left or right or whatever to make it fit the way I want.

But just remember to mark the holes before you paint (and don't pull the dust cover off before you drill and lose your marks like my dumbass)and it's not to big a deal

Nope. runs fine

I ended up not running the +3mm rims. I found I needed to adjust the suspension more to reduce some of the steering.

I did add a sway bar and love it though

Really, a swaybar? I don't hear of too many people adding them to their SC10's (or maybe they do and I just haven't noticed it :) ). Hmm, I'd be interested to try one of those out. Does it help you with traction in the turns or make it slide more?

IMO, the reason to use a sway bar is to help square the chassis coming off a corner with that big ole 225 gram (9-10 oz) body way higher than the chassis center of gravity.

Kinwald has done a good job of putting them on a number of SC chassis - Xfactory and AE.

I want to get back into 2WD SC and want to know if there's any word on a new SC10 Factory Team going to be released?

I know SC104x4FT comes out next month, I've seen production pics of the new BB shock/springs... and I think we should see a SC10.1 soon. Any word? I've owned and raced an SC10 factory team truck. In November, the truck was starting to feel a bit sloppy so I sold it and bought my first buggy, B4.1.

There are always gonna be rumors but I haven't seen anything about a new ft sc10.1 at all. Granted all I can go off of is a few websites and magazines. I am not "in the know".

From employees i have heard maybe on the SC10. but others cars are coming.

BB's are just in testing stages. Don't think you will see a upgrade anytime soon. Probably be a new platform first and buggy would come before truck.

I recently upgraded my sc10rs to the Reedy 540 4900kv...great motor tons of power for me.....however....the really cool looking power wheelie halfway down the straight is entertaining for everyone but me...the slipper is looooooose....what do i do?....weight in the front?...
:ha:

just get another ft sc10 james, gonna have mine up and running by next weekend, finally got my esc back from tekin

Okay, I finally found the replies in this bloody thread that i got from my question after it was merged.
Ive been working on my bikes today- cleaning and regreasing bearings, and making sure external parts are oiled up.
Its night time now so i might get to trying to find out whats wrong with my car.
Ive been told by a few people to pull it apart which im hoping to do in a minute just as long as princess fiona (aka dad) doesnt go apeshit about pulling it apart.
(he thinks im incapable of unscrewing a few screws, even though ive done it a million times to my other cars)
I will post pics of what i find, i might not get round to that until tomorow, which will be monday, and thats a tough day for me (at school and tafe for 12 hours)
so it might even be tuesday. ill try to do it tonight but other things may arise.

Why the chassis has 3 parts

Hi
There

What effect, i will get , if i shorten The linkage's ?
And what effect, if i make them longer?

Thank you

Sorry, i wanz to know what effect will it get to make the linkage's longer Pr. Shorten, by taking other linkage Mounts but without change the Camber.

I Hope you understand, what i mean

Tank you

Shortening the camber links will cause the tires to lean in (gain camber) more as the shocks compress. That includes landings from jumps as well as hard cornering. Ride height will also need to be watched, as the camber will change through the travel limits. So lowering the ride height will give you extra camber.

It's mostly a contact patch adjustment, but also affects chassis roll a small amount, giving the springs progressively reduced leverage as the car leans further over. You can see the effects on this suspension geometry page:
