Ran my vx4r esc again last night paired w a tenshock sc401 since im waiting on a replacement 5150 motor. Esc worked well again 2nd nite running it. Just cant seem to make 8 min main w this setup in my scte. Took all timing out, dropped to a 14t pinion and ran 6000 nano lipo. Cutoff at 7.5 mins.....is there a way to turn the lvc totally off. When i borrowed a programmer i didnt see a setting to turn it off......

Just ran the first pack through this 5.5XL on my Slash 4x4. Smooth as silk. 5* motor timing, no CHEAT, 14/54, only hit 92*. Think I've got some room for CHEAT and gearing.

Went racing Friday night. I ran my 2wd sc I qual'ed 2nd with the 10.5 in open 2wd sc and took 1st in the main. For round 2 i put in a 6.5. This was my 1st race with the 6.5 non boosted motor instead of the 10.5 boosted. So far I'm really liking the power. I was so far a head of 2nd place in the main they dared me to wait up so i did and let them pass me and then went back around for the win. LOL Fun night of club racing.:nod:

THats weird. I havn't tried a track yet but bashing non stop full throttle my 5000mah gens ace lasted almost 20 minutes solid.

Are your diffs all moving smoothly?

( also don't know your motor and I'm a noob : ) )

Well the only way can think of to turn LVC off is to run profile 1 which is the NiMah profile I think. I would never do that myself though. The programmer lets you turn it down to 3.0v I havn't messed with it though.

yea i have it set to 3.0 setting.....dont know why there isnt a disable mode.

NICE! friday i won 13.5 class with my b4.1/viper setup! I tried some new settings and gained some tenths;)

setup q's any1 can ask. Mine is very responsive but smooth and controllable.

very cool:nod:

Late night update from Motorama. Busy day of qualifying - literally -4wd SC ended just a little while ago. While the official postings are not done yet. Huge thanks to Gabriel Galeano and Steve Downs for waving the Viper flags!! Steve is an on road racer by background, borrowed a 4wd SC and a Copperhead system and has been towards the top of the field. Gsnriel overcame an issue in round 2 to drive a great result in Round 3 (he is using the standard VTX10R/4.5XL set up.

Both me and Stee have been running the Copperheads all weekend, with plenty of speed, run time and power. In fact we switched because I could handle the 51 and we hoped Steve would do better with it.

Also on the 'clay' track we are seeing success. Mark Smyka is qualified 3rd in 17.5 Buggy and 2nd in 17.5 stadium truck (I am 6th!). Paul Sinclair is 11th in 2wd Modified and was on a pace to easily be in the A Main on 2 different runs. Paul is also running 2wd Mod SC and is knocking on the door of the A Main! Toddie Anderson was 14th in Modified Truck.

A big shout out to team driver Neil Pestka who is hear trying to race, but really helping Scotty Ernst at the track to help keep the show rolling.

Sorry if I missed anyone's good results. I think we have some customers doing well in 17.5 SC- at least I was asked to help tech that their speedo was in blinks mode after a good heat race.

well i got my brand new FT sc10 and viper vtx10/10.5 combo friday and had it built in 6 hrs and raced it saturday. made two personal bests. 23 lap run and qualified 3rd for the a-main. had a not so good start and fell to the back but worked my way back to 3rd. the proguage was super easy to work with. the 10.5 was very smooth. i had a castle sidewinder with a 3800 4-pole. the viper is so much better than the castle.

Good luck guys!!!! If u have time can u post up what settings in the esc u are liking in pro4 class....thx!!

Was looking to purchase a copperhead for my TEN SCTE , but amain says it is on backorder. Where else can they be purchased?

your local track, support it bc it can be lost. Ik what its like.

According to a post earlier from viper they said they should be back in stock by the mid/end of next week.

just got my shiny new viper 8.5t in my sc10 today. ran it with the manuals suggested 17/84. after 10 minutes on the track it was 108* but felt slow.. how much higher on gearing could I go before I start running into heat problems? I was considering throwing my 81t spur back in but is that too big of a jump?

my local track or hobby stores do not sell Viper.
