:ha: That's how I learned how to work with computers. I would screw around with it and break stuff, then have to quickly figure out how to fix it before my dad got home.

As long as you don't expect him to fix it if you do screw something up, then go for it!

The only rubbing i experienced was when i set my body height to low. I put duct tape on the fenders underneath just to make sure no rubbing occurs and chips the paint

I use drywall tape (a fiber weave with mild adhesive) and shoo goo on my wheel wells and all along the out edges of the body and around the body post holes. Much nice finish than duct tape :)

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

Yea that's why I run it in the rear. My local indoor tracks (one carpet one clay) have doubles right at the exit of 180 deg turns so you have to take it like a "D" shape where you square up the rear quickly and get traction from both wheels to clear the jump cleanly.

I take it off on the outdoor track since it's much more rough due to rain ruts, exposed rock, etc. since the sway bar lifts both tires when one tire is elevated due to a bump causing loss of traction.

Why not run one on the front?

This is an older picture from when BK drove for XFactory, but this is far from impossible to DIY build on your own.

Has anyone run the Reedy Sonic in their SCT? If so, how did work compared to other motors?

The Captain 03-11-2012 05:32 PM

Anyone got any recommendations for some different style body posts? I am constantly snagging my shirt on the body clips that hold the body height washers.

Trade them out for safety pins.

My diff let loose the other night. Pulled it apart to see what went wrong.
The thrust bolt head sheared off! What would cause this to happen?
Faulty bolt? Maybe thrust bearing issue? I don't get it.

sc10rr 03-11-2012 06:22 PM

i have had the thrust bolt head break off too, several times but that's running a 7.5 with ht rotor. I called MIP since i was using their kits at the time and they had never heard of suck a thing? i've always setup my diff's per b-fast instruction's and never had a problem with any of my 1/10 buggie's. just the sc10

Chad Smith 03-11-2012 06:25 PM

Hey guys, what diff balls do you reccommend? The stock ones ofcourse dont last or stay smooth very long.

Well the SC10 is quite a bit heavier than the other models in the line, so random failures will be more frequent. Don't worry too much until after you replace it 2 or more times. It's probably just a weak bolt.

idrummerboy13 03-11-2012 07:15 PM

so i gave up with selling my sc10, unless someone buys, I'm putting my esc and motor back in this beast

last time i used it it was loose on power, pushed off. Im running the maifield setup on it, one he used at the norcal hobbies track.

Some one throw me a setup here=]
