and what plug is on the end and can i put a trx one on it?

That pack to me is not that bad. I have one that is 5000 with 25c. The plug that is on it is a deans and all u need to do is cut it off and use whatever plug u want to :D

Hey guys, quick question. With my truck on its way, I wanted to order the clutch basket. Do I also need the garodisc as well?

I also didn't have the cash for any spares but now I'm good. What should I pick up?

Thanks!

Garodiscs aren't necessary, but are a tuning option.

start out with a HD pad for the front drive, and two standard pads in the basket.

The Reedy 550 motors are really nice for the 4x4. Great power and they run cool. If RM can't smoke it, it must be good!

yep, we race here always, doesnt matter what weather.
only way we cancel a race is when the track is a massive mudpool on the raceday.

I have had races that the buildup of mud in the body and chassis was so huge, my truck was twice as heavy as normal.

I would use the clutch basket with standard pads or garodisc without. I have both and I prefer the garodisc right now for the tracks I race on.

I have a Q: can yall read my mind every time Im thinking about doing something to my truck someone is asking questions about it so i just sit back and read. Like Im thinking about the Pro4 and the Rx8 esc and yall are talking about thats great. Just keep up the great work guys and cant wait for my parts from Rcshox to come in and try them out. :D

Help! SC10 4x4, obviously, Tekin Pro4 4000Kv motor, MMP esc, Savox 1258 servo, and a Novak glitch buster. But I'm still getting brown outs. This is very frustrating. :(

It could be your MMP. Im running the same motor as you but with a RX8 and i have never had a hiccup with the system.

Check the temps on the esc the next time you experience a shut down as it could be your esc thermaling.

What do you mean by brown out or hiccup in the system?

Did a carbon-rod brace today...4mm carbon :D..

I think making a inner cover out of pantyhose and a light frame would be the way to go. I know full scale MX'ers do that to the plastic to keep mud from caking up and adding weight to it. I think you can spray it down with scotch guard and balance out water protection and airflow.

From the horses mouth on the MMP:

Andy,
The problem here is your servo. The Savox servos draw a lot of amperage from the internal BEC's, leaving none to power the receiver properly, and you are losing calibration from the receiver dropping out. The capacitor is helping, but the CC BEC 10A external BEC is a permanent solution to your problem if you want to keep using that servo. Ohm's Law states that amperage and voltage are inversely proportional, so when the esc is set for 5.5V, everything operates fine, and when you raise it to 6V, the BEC keeps dropping power due to the amperage rating decreasing. The CC BEC 10A will allow you to run any servo and accessories (like a transponder) you want to, and you can set it for the voltage you need with our software before you install it.
The yellow light on the Max Pro should be flashing at neutral, it will only be solid if you are running a sensored motor in Sensored Only Mode with Cheat mode engaged. This was done for ROAR-racing rules to make it easy for Tech Inspectors to see if someone is using the illegal timing boost or not.
