I am assembling a SC10 4X4. I have the tensioners set by the book, rear: 3 front: 4 and the belt moves fine. I went ahead and assembled the slipper and tightened down the nut to 3.5 mm of shaft past the top of the nut. The spur gear barely rotates, I took it all apart and double checked everything. I loosened up the rear slipper nut considerably where I think the nut is about flush. The spur gear is still very tight to turn. I want to know if this is normal and will break in so to speak. I have two SC10 4X4's, but the other one was bought as a roller, so this is my first build on this platform. Any advice?

ps: I have been in RC for a "while" uhhhh, in fact I have two RC8T's and AE instructions on that at least tells you what "bag" corresponds with the area you are dumping the parts out for. These instructions are very....crappy? It is a awesome bit of engineering though!

LR 23.1.........RR 25.8


These are the weights from the original configuration with 550. This includes the Rx box and the ESC tray. (They weigh 1.2oz together with bolts.) you can see that even with a 550 this truck is very right side heavy.

Anybody know where i can get info on if i should use 1 or 2 capacitors on rs pro with tekin 5.5 550 can in my sc10 4x4? Also, any idea on gearing? Driving at hotrod hobbies or west coast raceway. Trying to get this set up correctly. Thanks!

First thing i would check is the rear cvas's. sounds like you may have lost a pin in the rear.

Probably a little overkill but I got a 7940 hitec in mine. Servo works great in my 8th scale so I figured it would do the job here.

on this truck what offset do I need? is it like a losi using zero offset ie.(pro-trac) wheels or could I use say sc10 Rear's all around?

Stock and the DE Racing wheels are the ones that work properly. You can use SCTE wheels but they are flimsey. :)
