I was thinking of changing my setup since my local track changed layouts and as of now there are no real big jumps or long straightaways so I was wondering if this setup would work well?
2 Stage pistons 25w oil front 22.5w oil rear Blue springs up front and either green/white fronts in rear 24mm or possibly 23mm ride height front/rear Orange swaybar front, either blue/yellow rear Running FT slipper setup with garodisc pads and exotek inner hub that locks the front........... 5k rear diff and 10k front diff -2 camber rear/front with a little toe in on the front.. Here is a video of the track and its latest layout, any other tips advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.......
375/350 on your fluids yellow fronts/white fronts in the rear 23mm ride height yellow/blue sway bars |

Just a quick question.
I have a quick question maybe you guys can help me with. I currently have my sc10 4x4 setup with all rcshox upgrades. My question is i am running a pro4 4600 with a tekin rx8 and it is fast and my lap times are good but i drove my brothers losi the other day with the same motor but a mmp esc and his truck seemed to have instant acceleration compared to mine. Is it my c-diff slipping to keep the truck straight or something else. Any ideas would be great thanks.

So I was just looking at a few different saddle packs and was wondering if the 4500 Venom saddles with 50c discharge might hold up in a 7-8 min main running a tekin rx8 and 4600

Hey Guys! hoping to get some recommendations and suggestions as its been a few months since I've had a chance to get back to racing thanks to work and family obligations.
Anyway, I have a standard SC10 4x4 and I remember a few months back that I still needed to make more improvements on the truck to get it handling better. It has the RCShox garodiscs which worked well enough with my Tekin 4600 motor & RX8 Esc. Diff oil up front is 30K and the Rear has 5K. I use stick packs and it has the RPM arms on it along with the Fast Lap Products chassis brace. I did noticed a hairline crack in the rear right where the brace screws into (above the motor) so I decided to get the Associated FT Upgrade Kit since I am doing a tear-down to update and replace a few things. Another option part I decided to install was a new Exotek chassis to help the truck feel more planted on some of the loose tracks that I visit. Seems many are now using the 8mm hub mod. Are there any other optional ugrades to help this truck feel more planted on loose but big outdoor off-road tracks? Any help and suggestions would be very much appreciated as I try to get this truck back towards the top of our Club races which are just dominated by Losi and Durango SC trucks... :rolleyes: Thanks! :nod: Anyone? :weird: ANYONE?! :confused: Again, thanks! :sweat: |
I tried the 8mm last sunday and for some reason, the truck felt less stable. I went back to 5mm and it handled better again. I guess the amount of spacers depends on the track.
I currently run the FT setup for the shocks (35 fr, 30 r, yellow springs all around).. anyone know why the RTR/Kit have blue springs or at least blue fronts instead? And why AE went up with the oils, when everyone seems to go down instead? |

I had 7mm on the inside, ~6-7mm on the outside (I use a selfmade extension, cut from an old Slash chassis.. the nut sits directly on top of the rear hub carriers).

I agree with you , use the 7mm shim under inside chassis stud with med high grip & 5mm if loose .A important tuning option .:nod: Blue Spring Original kits came built & tuned to use blue, Factorys drivers later changed and went to yellow springs.... oil's always new set-up developments coming from the Ae Team. New set-ups run no overdrive , locked up ft clicker & new Team steering rack. Main reason the thicker diff oils is now recommended when using Team set-ups.. |
I meant the shock oils. I run overdrive in the front and like how it handles.
|
Are you running front clicker locked down with VTS slipper and what are your diff oil weights?
