No. Dual rate changes the end points or diastance the servo will move. Expo speeds up or speeds down the servo to the distance you turn it on the Radio.

Taking limiters out will give more roll and give more side bite. You add more to help limit side role.
With the shaved u brace, you have the c-hub ?

I posted this earlier in the week, and already sent out about 6 pieces of it. I still have 4 pieces left and are packed up ready to send out. Anyone else interested???

Hey Guys,

I went to my LHS yesterday to pick up a pack of AE Factory Team solid axle pins (Part #ASC1654), to replace the stock roll pins that came with my SC10. When I got there and found out they were more then $1 a piece I was kind of surprised. The owner of the shop, told me that he sells long 3' pieces of metal rod that are stronger then the AE pins, and only cost $.60 for the whole long piece of it. So, I took it to the bench, cut out a few pieces of it to the length of the AE roll pins I was replacing, put them behind my new Avid hex adapters... and they worked perfect. However, now I have a huge piece of this metal rod, and rather then just letting it sit, figured I'd help some fellow RC'ers out. So, if anyone on here wants a piece of it, just PM me your address, and I will mail you out a section of it that you can easily cut 4 pins from... you can just use a strong pair of wire cutters or a Dremel, to cut it down to the desired size. Don't worry about paying me anything for it... just leave me some feedback if it works out good for you. Beat's paying $4.00 for a pack of em' I am only going to be sending these to U.S. addresses. Sorry non-U.S. guys


^^^ Here is a picture of some pieces I have cut down all ready to send out. Each one of these pieces is approximately 7cm long, and will be long enough to make atleast 6 axle pins. I recommend using these solid axle pins only if you are using hex adapters. They do not fit in as snug as the stock roll pins do (neither do the F.T. pins), so they work best if you use adapters... as they hold the pins in place.

Haha, thanks man I just feel like it's a small way to repay some of the guys on here for all of the priceless knowledge that they have provided me with over the past few months. The thing that I came to like about R/C, were the really nice people, so any way I can encourage good sportsmanship... I will

A few pages back, I read where someone converted their SC10 to a T4 stadium truck. What parts are required to make that conversion?

I'm assuming:

1) T4 chassis
2) Wheels and tires
3) Body

What other parts are required?

Thanks for the help.
