Santa Gave me a SC10 4x4 FT for christmas, my last SC track and first RC was a slash 4x4, in wich I spent a lot of money but never felt comfortable with.

Anyway I built it , move the electronics, mmp, castle 3800 . and I just fell in love, what wonderful suspensions , handling, I missed the center diff, but was not so bad then ...

The rear diff started clicking, shim problem, I fixed with a rebuild kit and extra shim, but also noticed that the diffs always leaked, after like 5 packs. the maintenance process started to become a little bit painful, specially when you need like 8 hours for every practice day.

Then the upgrade process started, exotek chassi and front locker, Hotracing Aluminum diffs and idles, strc bellcrank and rear arm-mount, tenshock 4000k sensored motor, I spent like 12 hours just cleaning, disassembling and putting in the new parts.

I proved and spend another 6 hours trying to figure why the hell my rear trasmission was stuck, I meant not fully stuck , so I found the problem was that I over tighten the rear transmission case screws.

Finally to the track, the chassi and motor improvement fell really nice 1 pack, and totally lose the front traction, 4x2 mode. checked and front pulley and clicker just began to slide, I checked and pulley and clicker are alright , and I tried to over tighten the clicker but no luck.

So again I will need to spend another 4 or more hours disassembling the front.


So my point is I love the car, I love working on my RCs, but when you spend like 8 hours in maintenance and fixing for every 1 (or less) on the track, it just doesn't feel right (With my mugen eco it is just the opposite) .

Anyway I just want to express myself. btw I attached a few pictures.
