It is a problem when it hits flat on its nose and goes barrel rolling for ten yards. That is holding the throttle WFO the whole time in the air. Thinking about ditching the reciever box and esc tray to move the esc fuurther back.

If she's got her azz in the air that far moving that little bit of weight isn't gonna fix it. You got the only 4x4 that does it? Got some crazy set-up in it?

Nope, straight out of the box, word by word. Played with ride heigths some trying to fix it and the traction rolls, but it still flew nose down. would be nice if it was nose up so I could hit the brake.

Check your SC10 4x4 manual in the back, it tells you what gear to run on
the 5.5 550 motor.. If I had mine handy I'd be glad to tell you...

I can say that's not normal...tell them to fix the track because the truck is awesome and the track is the problem..:D..:eek:

You may want to try heaver shock oil in the rear. The rear of your truck may be hitting the face of the jump and causing it to nose over.
Kit setup is 30 front 25 rear. I went with 35 front and 30 rear. It seems to work for me. I may even try to go a bit heaver.

So is the battery compartment tight or it is just me? I don't think my battery is ROAR approved so I'm guessing it's too large... Someone with a ROAR sized battery please tell me that this is why the battery compartment seems small? Thanks all!!!

My Reedy (RIP) packs are some of the fatest ROAR packs on the market and they slip right in..

What's wrong with landing nose down? Most top drivers fly 1/8 scale vehicles and any 4X4 vehicle nose down.

Maybe but you have nose down and nose down.....
Mine was the bad nose down, really too much down

I'd check your ESC settings for drag brake. Something is up. Something is causing the truck to do that. I can pretty much guarentee that isn't how this truck was designed.
