nobody really cares about AE truck in this thread except 1% of the hardcore AE fans that troll it. LETS GET ON TOPIC

twigman08

Just to state I'm not an AE fan, I'm actually more a Losi fan. I was just stating I didn't agree with the response hacker gave.

+1000!!! Please enough with this bs!!!If someone claims hacker was being offensive through sarcasm they really should take a good moral inventory of them self as it just seems they are searching for a rise!!Where is the sarcasm??It was his opinion and while it may have been stated with a defensive tone it was by no means demeaning..Just dont think it was intended to be sacrcastic imo?? It was a Clear cut answer to a clear cut menatality??Cmon fellas don't get your panties in a bunch?? What is funny that this person didn't have to throw in his two cents about going for the Ae truck on this thraed??Just go with it and express your interest and excitement in Ae's thread??Why state that in this thread??For what??What does that accomplish but to just detract this thread??I dont go on Ae's thread to state that I like the Losi truck better??Whose purpose does that serve other than for my alterioir motives..It's just counter productive to the thread and is probably why hacker hacked at you a bit....For those that think it was unprofessional for hack to say what he said need to get off there 400 ft Rc corvette and read this thread through a couple times just to hopefully realize how darm professional these "Losi guys" have been!!!Shoot looks like every other rc manufacturer should be taking notes of these guys!!If they still truly feel bothered and question hack's customer service tendencies, than they need to educate themselves to the rules of customer sevivce in the corporate world for dummies!!

i own and race both losi and AE products.. BOTH high quality companies! BOTH have vehicles with pro's and con's... BOTH have good customer support..

Twig: what 2wd SC truck are you going to run then?? the AE SC10 is standard (OMG can't run a standard hardware rc OMG OMG)

your a Toolman for coming on here and crying about hackers response..

W.r.t. metric v.s. 'standard': most Europeans will favor metric above 'standard'. In Europe (almost) all screws are metric. Non-metric is therefore for me also a con.

D-Money, Im sorry but it wont fit in this vehicle. The motor mount is designed to the roar specs and thus only takes 540/550 motors.

I apologize if my comments came off to some poorly. They are my opinions. I was simply asking a couple questions. In regards to durability and complexity, I am spot on according to what I have personally heard from the AE guys actually running the truck.

If you feel complexity is what you are going for, then the AE truck will be perfect for your nephew is exactly what I was saying. They have two fluid filled diffs to tune which are not easy to get in and out, they have two trannys to get right, they have a decoupled slipper to set right, they have a belt to get the tension right and watch over, and they have a clicker to get right. That is just the drivetrain. It sounds to me like a truck that will turn electric into gas...and this is MY opinion coming for over 25 years of experience in this hobby. Just like gas where you spend all of your time tuning engines and not working on setup, with this, you could likely spend a lot of your time tuning your drivetrain and not working on setup.

None of this is meant to bash AE, I would not do that. They are a great copany that makes great products. We simply try to make better products that are right for the more common consumer. And to me, the more common 4wd SCT driver wants durable and easy and fast.

Hey Ryan, just wondering which aspect of the mount won't allow for larger motors? Is is too low to the chassis?

I would however like to keep the AE v Losi stuff away for as long as possible. Once both trucks are out there...then so be it.

I try to get on here and help, I really do. I would help anyone with ANY truck at any time and most know that about me. So, go Losi...but no bashing please.

No, I thin size wise you might be able to squeeze a 670 can in there. But the holes are not drilled in the right spots and i dont know if there would even be room to move the holes. Sorry

If you must run a 1/8 motor in your truck then the after market RC-Monster mount and the Elite RC electric motor mounts for the Ten-T are both available now and will both support 1/8 size motors.

I have the RC-Monster mount in my 810e now and can fit a Tekin or Castle 1/8 motor with no problem.
