SC10 4x4 Thread
based on what I am seeing from some of the conversions, they pretty much are using the RC8 chassis and then bolting on the sct specific stuff. Regardless though, probably a market for it.

very common issue it seems. Someone post a "fix" on the front page?
I noticed that issue when I was running the truck initially with the softer rear springs back when I first got it, and I noticed it when I had the heavier Blue fronts. When I changed to white fronts on the rear, she jumped nose level to nose slightly nose down which for the large jump I was clearing worked great.
How I approached the jump mattered too, if I was just coasting at speed and hit it, it would go tail high.
Got in my M2C toe in blocks as well as some new tires to try. Will report on how it goes, may head out to a close by unfinished track and see.
Truck loves money going into it, but, its a blast to drive LOL.

I dont think AE is going to do anything at all with the truck, Their team drivers win with it at will. In their eyes changing to a completely different layout for 1 or two specific situations doesnt make money sense. they will simply leave it to the aftermarket companies to improve what they have. I am starting to see alot of Losi owners switch back to the lighter more efficient trucks that are simply built better (AE,Durango and now TeamC). AE has been around for a long time......Smart company they know exactly what they are doing!
One thing I have learn about Ae all these years ..'
They really care & they will not stop improving the Sc10 4x4 .
Expect even more running changes , new parts & set-up advise that help keep the Ae in the ft row and fun to drive...

I hope so, the SC104x4 is probably one of my favorite vehicles right now.
Always laughing later when they still get beat by a Ae .....
Yeah, I have driven my friends scte and it was definitely more stable in the fast sections and in the air, but I could not get it to turn in nearly as sharp as the AE.
I felt very lazy entering a turn. Tried more front toe out, helped a little but no matter what I tweaked I could not get it to tun in like the AE.

I agree....however that's not always a good thing.
SC10....I can win races with it, and I only really drive it for the big races.
RC8.2....I can win races with it, and I've only been driving 8th scale nitro for 3 months.
SC104x4.....same track, same competitors, and I'm getting spanked...didn't even make the A.
RX8 w/ SC4x 5.5T
Savox 1258
Garodiscs to help with the fading AE slipper pads
Dual Stage pistons
Ran soft holeshots, which is the same tire that the top 3 guys had on their Losis....
I'll find my setup when I get home.....if anyone has any suggestions to get this thing up to the same caliber as the SC10 and RC8.2, I'd love to hear it....I really want to wipe the smile of the smug Losi drivers faces, rather than join their ranks....
I probably have 6-8 more club races before my season is done....I'd really like to podium at least one of those....
