SC10 4x4 Thread
I asked this question in the MT-4 thread, but it's pretty quiet over there and have not got any thoughts. Maybe someone here that has the MT-4 has some insight?

Cain,
Nice vids and great track, looks like real fun.
80% of this thread is about trying to "fix" this truck.
The only fix I needed was a center oil filled diff and the motor around the right way, Just like every other good SC and 1/8th platform.
There are no indoor tracks here you need slicks and can drive a touring car around with a few bumps, and I don't care what full time got all day to practice pro's are doing, or there setup sheets were there's no mention of bumpy tracks, let alone blowin out rutted tracks, I live and race in the real world.
Enjoy the truck that works for you guys, I'm enjoying being back in the winners circle after racing the SC10 for over a year, and being out of it.
Last post on this thread so burn away if the truth hurts.

Later Ross, have fun with the scte. You had some great DIY projects for this truck to share and good insight. The scte thread is lucky to have you 
Thought about converting a mugen eco?

If you were still willing to try the AE SC10 4x4, would like to see how it goes for you using the M2C blocks. Part of me thinks that the vehicle can benefit from more rear toe in slick conditions. Or, in general if you find you want to be able to push it harder without the rear stepping out.
I'll get more testing in with it this coming weekend it looks like. It will be on this track:
at the very end of this video, you can see the track conditions very clearly. Racing starts at about 3:20 mark. Down the straights you can darn near do a full 360 as it can get so slick.I can go from wet and sticky to dry, dusty and very loose in a couple of heats.

I got to drive a losi last weekend. The guy had the complete wrong tires, he needed some with tread on them, but still it was weird, you punch the gas and it always went straight. I would get all sideways because his tires were bad, but just punch the gas and it would always go straight. I have no idea if it is faster or not, hard to tell with bald tires, but I have a feeling it would be easier to drive. Unsure if my lap times would improve, maybe just more consistent.
I have an mt4 and it only does this when the car is off always. Not when it's on however. I believe that it thinks the car is below "alarm voltage" even tho it's powered off?
Sorry I might not be much help

But the only setting for voltage warning that I found is for the radio. Did I miss something in Tue menus that allows for rx voltage warning?
me personally, I really think the M2C Block is money in these situations. I hope to confirm again soon.
And, indoors carpet, very curious to see what a 2.75 or even 2.5 toe in feels like.
Found it in telemetry settings, telemetry voltage setting default was 6.5 in case anyone has that radio.
In regards to the M2C block... I've been running 3.5° rear toe since about November, a month after I got the truck. Works best for me and how my truck is setup. Outdoor and indoor.

Your right! Ok, I've amended that to only halves. No 16ths, 32nds or 64ths
