I obviously need to re-do my wiring... look at how messy it looks. This is my test drive wiring to see if I like driving the car. The FT B4.2 proved to me that it's a keeper.

flip the battery around and shorten the leads .

also make the negative wire extra short so to avoid
the reverse plug in blow up ...


Looks real good over all ....:)

You can leave the fan on the esc if you want but most don't run one.

The angled washer are normally run under the wing. Unless you have them on top on purpose to reduce the wing angle.

Front DE chassis brace, nothing wrong with using it, many will say it's not needed but it will save the front half of your JC chassis protector for sure.

body is simple, and a nice change from most with the matte black windows and painted sections.

BEC, that's your choice, can't ding you on that. Nice looking ride, have fun:tire:

Ya I smoked my other ssx with a savox servo in about 10 min after having it run a jr z8800 for 2 years. So now I don't risk it. Thanks for the positive comments guys. I'll re-do the wiring very soon.

I just have to get better at cutting mine out and that was also my first attempt at scuffing a wing

Below:
B4.2 case with ball diff
SC10 case with ball diff
SC10 rtr case with gear diff

Ball diff part #9853, gear diff part #9827

Put together my Gear Diff today and it binds somehow when the screws are slightly tightened against the motor plate. When I put my old ball diff in, it spins freely with the screws are tightened against the motor plate. Feel like I just wasted $27. I overlooked the whole assembly against the manual it came with and everything is correct, poor QA?
