Yeah, the little ones holding the piston onto the the shock shaft. I've read of a few guys not doing it and having the screw let go, led to bent shafts and other broken parts.
Mine had 2 of the 4 loose.
Thought I'd post up some race results, all SC104's and 1 losi. Only one SC104 w/ garodiscs and 2 stage pistons though.
I've given them all fair warning, they know what parts I use, they still don't see the light. Even after months of whoopn's. Some people will never learn..... Closest dude to me is a full 17 seconds back....
Once the RCSHOX center diff comes in, I'll put another lap on them...

Speaking of results, go on youtune and watch the jconcepts clash... watch the losi just contour to hack and bash his way by people... my personal favriot is on the last lap and the last corner he just blatenly true to take out the guy infringement of him... so pathetic...
I have no idea what you just said. "just blatently true"? "just contour to hack"?
I'm not being a dick, I don't think?

Well, really:
It's after Christmas. There are a ton of people who got this truck. The Thread isn't going to move forward for quite a while.
Let's just set up a table and sign setup sheets or something.

I just installed a new Tekin RX8, and the fan was working, so I then plugged in the Hotwire, to check out all the adjustments on the PC, then when I plugged the battery in and turned on the ESC, I noticed the fan is not working now. Everything is brand new. What could cause the fan not to work? Or is it supposed to only come on when the ESC reach a certain temp.?
Also for the chassis brace, are you guys using carbon fiber tubing or aluminum? also how exactly are the rod ends connected to the brace? is there a set screw inside the rod end and into the tubing? What size parts are you guys using?
Thanks

The fan only comes on during normal operation when the ESC hits 140*.
Brace using cf tubing and I used a long threaded rod through the tube. Go to your lhs and get the tube and fit the rod.

t amazes me how you tell someone what works and even show them and they still go out and buy something that does not work anyway! Its coming full circle now though, just have to be patient.

Mine is still in bags, inside the box. I'm going to continue to read before I build it.
12-26-2011, 08:22 AM
So...I kind of screwed up. Step 1 in the kit building is the servo install. I thought my servo was centered. I was wrong. Even with the trim all the way, it's far from straight. Is there an "RCtech" shortcut to readjusting the servo, like page 707 has the rear diff removal guide?

I posted that to prove I've been reading. =D
Thanks in advance.
