For those of you using a personall transponder, where do you have it mounted? During one of the heat races I was in last week, mine only counted two laps. The first heat it was fine. I have it mounted to the chasis in front of the motor, and was wondering if that may be a poor location?

ok guys i have seen all the set-up pages and they are all very helpful thanks
question though is anyone running 1 of these trucks on a small tight indoor high bite clay track approx 14 seconds per lap
any set up hints to make changes on compaired to others set up hints for larger tracks?
here is the track i am talking about , there is a stock set up losi , the green and black car

Hello
Been racing the SCTE a few weeks now and I just love the truck. I have 2 TQ's and one win and my son in sportsman has 2 TQ's and 2 wins. Getting ready to do some maintence on it. Just got my Chris pins last week. My question is I love the way the truck feels with the grease in the diffs. What diff oil combo will give me the same feel?
Thanks in advance.

To date I haven't seen any thing from anyone saying they can get diff silicone to feel the same as the grease. Might wanna leave the grease in. Pretty sure grease is made to last forever lol. Well at least a long time. Seems like everyone loved the stock grease on the scte, I wish I would have ran it with the grease before, first thing I did was pull the diffs apart, and changed the diff fluid. Owell at least I don't know what I missed. Not a great answer, but think it's about as good as you will get. A lot have been bugging losi to sell the grease after market, and they said they would look into it. So keep your fingers crossed I guess.

The closest I can find to a similar feel to the stock grease is a 3k 3k for the front and center. So total would be 3,3,2..
I honestly think it's more like a 4k feel so if you wanted to mix a 3 and 5k bottle for a custom blend and run 4,4,2 I think you would get as close to the grease as you can w/ oils... still not the same but close. This setup does work great, I don't like 5k in any of them and would go w/ 3k given the choice... I run on some high bite and med bite tracks too and still would take 3k over 5k in the front and center.
Rear always seeems best on 2k
my 2c hope it helps get you going.

More like 10-10-10....I thought the grease was horrible, thick and nasty. It also causes increased motor and ESC temps.....changed mine out to 5-5-3, dropped 30 degrees and handles much better.

The top few in sc 4x4 are lucky if they can stay on the same lap as him. Tyler and I run mid 17. Chris A is running 16s!!! Can't touch him... He's just as fast with his 1/8 as his sc.

Not even close to 10/10/10 ;P Granted I've run 2k oil in the rear from early on, but I've run both ways now and my motor temps were actually lower on the stock grease and I had slightly faster lap times. So I guess you have some data to back those claims up with some trials LOL

The problem I found running the grease was it would change after it heated up, the lube seems to stay consistant.
