The SCT410 has the steering out the box (almost). I tried more Ackerman and had to turn my DR down to 60% to finish the heat. The SCT410 seems to be a little less responsive to tuning than the MIP chassis in some respects, and so far seems to have a inherently loose rear end. It reminds me a lot of my Durango.

Now that the "bad" is out this truck handles like no other. Even though I may have been a little too loose for my liking it never got out of hand. It took a lot to upset the truck while cornering and it flies like a dream. So far I am very happy with my switch, I'm just nervous of how the truck will do on a low traction track.

All in all your logic of buying a used MIP and having money left over is a thin line. More than likely your gonna spend that extra money on outdrives, driveshafts, and ball ends.:nod:

So I spent 2 hours today redoing my truck to Barry's setup.

Before the change, I had gone to 40/37.5 oils and dropped the front diff to 5k.

Now: I'm still trying to get used to a 3diff Truck. (Hardcore and succesful Sc10 4x4 Driver) Barry's setup feels smooth and clean. I enjoy driving it, but it doesn't feel "fast". Now correct me if i'm wrong, but i'm very much used to a knife's edge Truck, My Sc10 4x4. Barry's setup feels slower and times are a little slower. (about .550) than my shock oil and front diff change off stock

I still need time to eliminate my style with the SC10 on this car, but I feel like the setup change slowed me down from the ability of a slight tweak stock setup.

Thoughts?

Thanks man. Im leaning towards the tekno the more i look around. And worse case i know theres a demand and will have no problem moving it. And actually if tower had them in stock id probably order one today lol

Have you worked on the rear end at all? Im kind of a traction crybaby. I raced touring cars forever so the slow is fast stuff in the dirt bugs me lol. Thats why im hoping switching from.2wd to 4wd works better for me

Yes, its better, but still not where my MIP Losi was. Thats what concerns me about going to my local track which is low bite. On the high bite track I was already at min anti-squat, braces removed, hubs forward, max toe and swapped the sway bars front to back. I even changed a few diff fluids, shock fluids, and fiddled with the camber links. It never really went away, it just moved around. The only thing I didn't really mess with was the droop settings. I think limiting it some more will help a bit.
