Yeah. I read the whole thing twice and missed it. 
The RPM arms have a swoop upwards the stockers do not. You would have noticed they didn't just bolt on easy. They had to flex.
Dremel that spot that and they will be just fine.
- Lemme know if you need a pic. I'm painting bodies and building a PC at the same time over here.

And coyote, no pics needed man, its pretty easy to see what you mean. I think im just going to put a fresh set of stock arms on. Ive never really been a fan of the rpm's anyways.

I thought the same thing but if you measure them with some calipers, it tells you the truth, its actually 1.807 front and 1.788 in the rear.

yea I was too lazy to bring them out of my box lol. Looked like I had a 2.0 on there before, I thought I had a 1.5 in there.
can't wait to try it out. i get paid in 3 hrs and i'm going to the hobby shop tomm for some goodies!

In my 1s chassis, I only use about 1300mha. Battery voltage at the beginning of the charge is like 3.95 or so, finish charge is 4.22. I changed to a Thunder Power charger because my ICE would only charge to 4.18 before stopping, charging the extra .04v was worth another 400mha and about .2 per lap in a car that does laps in the range of 4.2 seconds or so...
I would expect your start voltage per pack to be about 3.8 given the amount of charge they are taking.
You can fabricate a balance plug and charge as a 2s if it makes your life easier. I can take a picture of mine and post it if you want, but I'm warning you - it looks pretty sketchy. It does work, and I charge at 20 amps.

I think we found your problem. I'd set the timing back to whatever the factory setting is and set your speed control at 1-0-2-2 (Kody's) or 1-0-0-2 (Ryans). It'll probally make more power and run cooler for your trouble.
(I don't use LRP, that setting is what Kody used here)

SC10 vs SCTE weight comparison
Ok here is the first comparison I've been able to do between the two 4x4's
Both running tekin rx8 and pro4 motor, scte has all the mods to lighten it and the sc10 has weight added in several areas......No lipo/body on either
SCTE 5.11 lb's total
SC10 5.45 lb's total
Should I have weighed them without the tires for a more accurate total, and I remember people mentioning things about cross weight how is the weight on either 4x4 good or bad when talking it comes to the cross weight?? Thanks

still chasing the clicking gremlin
Guys I am stiil trying to figure out the clicking under hard acceleration and turning. I looked it over and also had the LHS tech take it apart and he said the rear diff was good but found a bearing going bad. replaced all the hub bearings and and it still clicks. I wanted to make sure it was in the rear so i removed the belt and the clicking is still there. Also the motor is still running hot which I feel may be related to the clicking issue. Please help
Thanks
Jody

Ran rear Reds for one heat last Friday...truck felt better everywhere but the jumps, I had to be on the gas hard or the backend would want to over rotate...gonna try green/white front's this Fri @ practice and see if it's any different.

However by that logic they also repel bears since I haven't been attacked by a bear since then.
