mods on my truck are: exotech chassis 8mm hub mod rc8.2 buggy spring mod dual 2s shorty packs .5 deg rear hubs and soon v2 center ball diff I went with the yellow springs front and rear and 40/35 losi shock oil. It helped the truck with traction rolling in the sweepers. The only thing i didn't with the heavier oils is that it made the suspension feel a bit lazy. I have adapted to the feel now and am going fast. Not sure if this heavier oil will work with the pistons that you got there. |

I am on a tight indoor med grip track, & the white F springs,
on the rear, was working great... I am putting the Exotek chassis in, with a bunch of FT upgrades, What Front Springs was it that people were suggesting with the Exotek? Green Front? 3.50 rate Or was it Blue Front? 4.30rate I believe Green which is a 3.50 Spring rate? but i forgot?? THX |

Looks good please update us with a review once you get a chance to run them. And did you get them off ebay?
The Black Bladders seem just slightly thicker then the Stock bladders, but definitely better quality....The Orange are much thicker, with the slots under to fit the foam, I am starting with the black bladders.. These Ofna bladders are similar... http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...ock-Bladders-4 I will probably pick up a pack of ofna's as extras, but no foams, with this pack... THX will review after rebuild & drive!! |
When doing the 8mm rear hub mod do you have to use the carbon "c" tower or can you use the "a" and "b" ones? Also what are the differences between them.
|
The C hub sits lower, making it equate the 8mm on the outside I believe

Now we are starting to see people go with dual shorty lipos though so that is a different case. Each of them would be 4000mah 2s packs wired in parallel so you would have the equivalent of a single 8000mah 2s pack.
Its important to realize that the current output depends on if the packs are wired in series or parallel also. Wired in series the capacity does not change so a 5000mah pair of 50c saddles would have a constant rating of 250A vs a pair of shorty 4000mah 50c lipos wired in parallel would have a constant rating of 400A. Basically you could get away will a lower C rated pair of 2s packs wired in parallel vs. 1s packs wired in series...Of course lower C rated packs could lead to more issues down the line. Also whatever connectors you are using would probably melt before you pulled 400A constant but that is probably obvious. |

kind of a weird question,
do asc10 4x4 & losi ten scte have the same offset on their wheels? |

I ordered new cva bones some days ago, and only just now realized.. the FT manual lists both front and rear CVAs as 91040, while the non-FT manual lists 91040 as front and 91041 as rear. What is the difference between the two?

Noone have any idea? Could someone please measure the length of the f/r bones? I can't since my rears are bent.

didn't someone on this thread measure and say no? (at least, for the original wheels?) Going to try the search feature ...
But then AKA has Losi and Sc10/4x4 specific Rims... So I really don't know what the deal is. The guys have been carving out Proline rims since the SCTE came out. |

Sometimes the truck would step out of the turn just a little and add time to the lap using white ft. Also the roll was way less with the white ft, good for the sweeper & higher speed turns , but bad for sharp turns on the infield as you get a bit less steering . If I were you ? Try the yellows again & compare the times . That's what I did and discovered the spring that was faster for me ... |
