Many will say you need a high c rating, the truth is you don't. I will be running the ecopower 4100 4s with 35c rating. 12 minute run time and only 54 bucks at amain. 2-2s will fit if you lay them on there sides with the bullets parallel to the chassis. I ran nanotech 5600s with a tq side bullet as the jumper wire.

What shock oils would you reccomend for a good overall starting point? I only have ae oils and i've heard they differ a bit in viscosity compared to losi oils. Thanks.

What is the recommended center diff play (forward/rearward) not teeth mesh?
The total play is 1mm on mine. It is one month old. 3 days at the track. I built it to the book with shim/spacers. I am cleaning it and noticed alot for front to back play. No issue on the track yet, but wondering.
Thanks,

EDIT: I just found TLR242008 - shim and spacer set
Also switched from the plastic to metal spur...totally different sound! I hope it grows on me.

I've got at least 2mm of play in my center diff. It walks back and forth a bit and doesn't seem normal. How much play should there be? Should the center diff be shimmed at all?

I have a small issue/problem. My rear gear box is smooth until I get to a small section of the crown gear, it gets very rough and binds a tiny bit. Will this "wear" in or should I pull it apart? I ran it in my driveway, I still feel it when I free spin the drivetrain.

Yeah, this will wear in some.
