Check or.swap sensor wire. See if you have a lot of dirt inside your motor.

How is your gear mesh setup, is it to tight are you stripping your spur?

Just an update: My bud won the B and then bumped to the A. He took 2nd in the A!! The dude can setup and drive a truck, but might ditch the SC10 4x4 for the Losi .

I'm not. Once you add some weight, Rxshox center diff, and get them setup they're freaking awesome.

depends on the track....obviously the losi will drive 1/8th tracks better as they just rejigged a 1/8th buggy...not much innovation but for huge jump tracks its better....for 1/10th scale tracks the sc104x4 is better imho

Personal preference. I won my A main by 2 laps today and was told I'm bumped up now. My time was equal to the TQ in class I will be competing in. Best I've done to this point was 3rd but this was the first race with the center diff. I have been putting in a lot of practice time (no cheese, it will kill you slowly).

So the truck is fast. You just need a lot of patience to dial it in.

I'm keeping mine for now. It works great on our tiny indoor track. I will have to see how it does when our club gets up and running this spring outdoors.

So, I went racing yesterday, Had a blast, and made ALOT of new changes.First off, I PM'd Mantis for some help and he gave me some REALLY good tip's. I was having an issue with the rear of the truck coming around very easily ever since I went to the saddle setup. I knew the truck would be different but DAM, it was almost un-drivable.

So, for starters, he suggested that i go to 30k from 20k (was the strongest I could get at while I was at the track, that's how bad my truck was, I changed the diff fluid at the track) and 5k from the 10k I had. Also, told me to go with 0 front camber and -2 rear. I did all that except the rear diff because I couldn't get any 5k. In the first heat, the truck was tons better, but still not where I wanted it to be, so I went from yellow sway bar in the front to a blue one and from blue in the rear to a white. In the second heat, my truck was even better, and almost where I wanted it, but i decided another change was in order. At this point in time, my buddy "nmdesertracer" was going crazy with me doing so many chages to my truck. So, after the second heat race, I went to blue springs in the front (had yellows on before) and to whites (had blues) in the rear. Now my truck was feeling AWESOME!!! So, I ran a "3rd" heat (had them run the loop for 5 mins during intermission and I somehow broke a shock cartridge. So, I replaced it and put 35 wt instead of 32.5 in the fronts. During the main, The truck ran absolutely perfect!! Was running 2nd when I hit Lipo cut off at the 9:30 mark... Well, thought I would Post my new setup for you guys if anyone need's a good one for a large, bumpy, medium to low traction 1/8 scale track. Hope this help's some people. Any questions, feel free to ask.

I've driven a losi at my track and although I think it's a little faster on our layout and much better on the bigger jumps. My SC10 4x4 seems to be better on the more technical sections. I've actually had the losi in my cart a couple of times but can't make myself pull the trigger. Even if it's not quite as fast the AE fits my driving style and is just more fun to drive. I'll be sticking with AE, that is until if and when mugen comes out with with a 4x4 SC, then I may have to venture outside the AE box.
