the 3800 can power a stock scte better than any 550 motor available.. it will be just fine in your sc10 4x4. The sc10 should be light enough to use the stock esc if you wanted.. but highly suggest getting the mmp, mm or rx8 instead. enjoy.

For anyone else reading.. the best motor in this class is the 1410 from castle.. i've used the tekin 4.5 and the ae 4.5 and a few guys I know have used the novak 4.5's with and w/o the tuning rotor. Go w/ the 1410

What is a good servo to use with the sc4x4. i am looking at the [SAV-SC-1258TG, is 166oz enough torque?

I agree. I've used and currently own the SC4X 5.5 and CC 1415 and I would choose the CC 1410 over both of those motors. Its fast, lightweight, runs cool, etc. For the price, it can't be beat. I'm going to sell my CC 1415 and MMP so I can purchase another CC 1410. I'm currently using an RX8 and 1410 on my SCTE. I can run 10+ minutes EASILY with this combo.

My trucks will be here tomorrow I'm amped.

One of these will be here also

think it will work?

I think you could turn a life size SC truck with that servo, dang lol

I would have gone for less torque and more speed.

Are you planning on wireing your receiver directly off the battery for a solid 7.4 volts, or are you going to use the BEC on the ESC?

Yes, that's enough torque.

is that shaft on that castle motor a 5mm?

It's 3mm, as posted on the first page of this tread!

still debating. Just dont want any issues with it being so hard to get at. I don't see fixing a servo at the track as being real easy with this car. I also really want the weight. They are so smooth. I had a 94780 in my SCTE and it was fine. My truck should be planted with that servo, an rx8, 4.5 balistic and 305 gram batteries.

For those of you that are currently building, please post or PM me the size of yoru nuts, umm, I mean the size of the nuts in the kit, what size nut drivers are used.

Also please post or PM me the size of hex drivers needed.

I plan on using this servo, should be a good choice in my opinion.
