Kyosho Ultima SC-R Thread
#3766
i have two sc10 and my buddy wants one of them and had a $900 budget to work with and i tld him that if he get me the sc-r sp and i would let him get one of my trucks with the electronics minus my servo, the electrinics iincleuded are a trinity d3 17.5 ( we run stock blinky blinky mode) lrp v2 comp xxx, and he will get himself either the futaba 4pk ir airtronics mt4, and the truck comes with a body. i think that is a great deal for a good truck with no body and no electronics, huh?

Good deal of its going to a friend of yours. How did you like the d3? I have that one in another scr sp but it's slower than crap. I'm runnig the hobbywing exrun 120. Did you max the can timing? I have mine geared at 25-78. You will enjoy the scr sp. btw I bought my second sp kit here, they range from 240-350 depending what extras they come with

do they make different batt hold downs for the truck because i run bullet plug in on my batt and it seem as if the stock one will block my plug ports

If you are buying it new amain has it for 400 and stormer hobbies has it for 370 shipped. You can add weight if you want. Some people add some under the steering rack and on the opposite side of the esc. I mounted my esc right in front of the tranny so I did not add anything as everything is in the center.
I'll try adding timing on the can and see what it does. I detests the d3 and x-12 lrp as the notches in the motors leave a small crack where the Kyosho motor mount plate is and let's dirt in, have trashed 3 spurs and 1 pinion. Now that I saw it I rtv'd the gap. I'm gonna get rid of these motors just because they have all these ridiculous big openings in their cans.

man that truck is dirty omg lol, where do u b driving at? and the holes in the can are great it helps with keeping the motor cool, and what are your temps coming off at and how is your track large or small if it is small you can just try for a fdr of like mayb 7.2-8.0 and check your temps and then go from there not to go over like 150-160 after like 8 min i like to say eight because ppl say 5 and a main is more than five and i dont want top run that high with 3 mins of the race left to run man

i have a novak in a sc10 and i havent had any probs with them either, i dont think you will have probs with motors if you keep em kool ya know, i have an orca also and man they are fast as hell i tell ya. one of the guys at the track are sponsored by orca and he fly around the track, so i gave em a try and they have done well for me.

Don't know the exact length of track, but they are all medium size with small straightways. The cut outs are great for on road or super nice indoor clay tracks. The above pic is only the first heat lol. Also the mains are 10 minutes and I'm coming off under 130 after the long main. I keep all my trucks clean as soon as i get back, but being that I have cut outs I have to clean the motor bearings weekly as well. This is my cure until I can get different motors.
Believe it or not it came off around same temps if not a bit cooler as the bearings did not get locked in fluff.
Gamedog do they make a high torque 12.5 rotor for the d3?

The x-12 is stupid fast, no issue there. The d3 on the other hand, seems as it needs top end. They have a 12.3 rotor but I would like to try a 12.5 high torque rotor that's if they even make one. The 7.5 is geared short, 16-82. I added 2 clicks in the can and it did not seem to change much at all for the 17.5 that is.

It geared 78-25. They don't have 75 and I don't want to buy ae spurs or clutch pads.

So I finally got my SC-R on the track tonight, and did well. I decided to play with different spring choices in some of the heats, and had both x-gear springs and the avid springs to choose from, but they are too short in the rear... what are you guys using as spacers to get the springs to fit?
