I bought the SC10 brushless rtr for racing indoors this winter. The track is high bite clay usually has a tight layout and jumps made from wood covered with carpet. I am new to SC trucks and havent done electric racing for years. I'd like to know what a good starting point for setup is. Specifically interested in what fluid I should put in the rear diff and/or should I swap it out for a ball diff or is that just an option to keep drivetrain weight down. My plan is to buy a set of tires and a good lipo pack soon and once I do Im thinking of upgrading to cvds and V2 shocks. What else is recommended for these trucks. I dont want to change to rpm arms and bumpers but know their tie-rod ends are worth getting. Anything I can get from AE directly is a plus.

Trying to get an idea on lipos. Like I said its a brushless rtr and my plan is to stick with that system until Ive done all other upgrades then probably get a good sensored 17.5 setup. I dont think any of the races will be longer than 10 minutes so do I need to get a 5000mah pack or will something like the 3400mah Reedy pack be good enough. I dont even know if there is a weight requirement or if heavy or light is a benefit in SC racing.

Help an experienced racer who knows nothing about SC learn the ropes so I dont embarrass myself this winter
