Thanks for the info everyone. Those run time numbers are a bit disappointing though. While I probably will race occasionally, I find I usually just run laps on the weekends at my local track. With a 4S 6700mah battery/1900kv SMC/Hobbwing XR8 SCT ESC I'm getting at least 30 minutes (maybe closer to 45 minutes) of run time out of my EB48.4. I'd like to see something comparable in any SCT I build as well. Would going down to a smaller motor help in any measurable way? Maybe something in the 3600-4000kv range?

I run for 10-12 minutes at a time with buggy or truggy. And usually during practice I'm using my 7200mah batteries, and run for 10 minutes with my SCT.
Best practice is to have 2 packs for each vehicle, and run them on rotation. Some people have 3. While your running, a pack is charging, and no issues.

Stiggosaurus, I'm pretty sure you aren't getting 30-45 minutes of runtime with that setup. I could see 15 to 20 but much more than that seems unlikely. The other thing you need to consider here and it has been mentioned by others is motor heat. Firing batteries through one after the other doesn't allow the motor to cool and can lead to overheating. I know you aren't racing but a seized motor sucks for bashing or racing both. I would suggest you get a temp gauge and monitor your temps. I would also set a timer on your remote to remind you to pull off and let things cool down. Check with the locals and find out how long the races are set for the classes you have. They set the length for a reason, typically to ensure equipment isn't destroyed by running too long.

If your running your buggy for 30-45 minutes, you need to stop. I assume by running it that long, your running to LVC, which is bad for the health of your batteries. Which also makes me ask if you keep your batteries at storage charge when not in use?

Anti squat
I have a dumb question.....the book says the pill for the c mount goes in with the dot center, bottom. Book says this is 3* but continues to say that the dot in the center is 3* with the composite c block. Can anyone please explain? I have my dot center, bottom. What anti squat setting does this give? If I want to reduce anti squat, where would I move the dot to?
Thanks in advance

Antisquat is the front side (c block) of the hinge pin raised up more from the chassis than the back side (d block). The composite C block is 3 degrees taller than the D block, this is why when you have the same dot on both blocks you still have 3 degrees antisquat.
If you want less antisquat you would lower the dot on the C block (this puts the front of the hinge pin closer to the chassis). If you run out of adjustment on the C block you can start raising up the dot on the D block (this gives less antisquat because it raises the back of the hinge pin closer to the height of the C block)

Your current setting would be 2 degrees, to go less than that you will need to adjust the D block upwards (explained in more detail below) or get the aluminum C block (it has 1 degree less antisquat than the composite)

Vid of some more action:

This time conditions were a bit on the dry side, so it may be a little wetter next time.

I used to run a tekin 1850kv pro 4 hd/ RX8 4S set up in 410.3
On 4S 16tooth pinion with fans/ heatsink on motor temps hit 45 deg celcius then 70 deg celcius without fans/ heatsink on motor, 2 x 5000 batteries gave 15 min constant runs till lipo cut out on track

hi guys
I bought a sct410.3 sometime ago but i didn't get a chance to run it till today due to some issues and it seems it makes a screaming sound when it's running and the gears don't seem to mesh well (some sort of jitter noise at the drive shaft)
I've tried moving the motor and pinion gear closer to the spur gear but there's no improvement,

anyone have some recent opinions going with the "standard" setup from the diff perspective on loamy surfaces? Running 7-7-3 here but still curious about the 15-15-10 setup .
I may give it a try if I can find some spare diffs here too, but still curious on first hand experiences.
