I still stand firmly second place in our club championship this year between all losi.

Just 2 more races to go. but not a chance for the first place

Greatest comment I have seen on rctech...it has nothing to do with which truck you drive. It has to do with your driving skill and the time you put into whatever vehicle you run. Up in North Dakota the SC10 4x4 is leading the points right now as well. On any given weekend 2 or 3 of the top 5 in the class are AE with a losi and/or durango thrown in.

The real kicker...I am the leader in points, running a stick pack, rtr truck with hobbwing SC8/4000kv combo, center brace, and cityblock tires. Thats it, no factory team shocks, swaybars, saddle packs, bypass pistons, center diff ect ect. Put the time in and practice.

(Mantis not knocking your stuff, Ive not personally tried it so i dont know if its good or bad)

A couple afternoons at the track testing and tuning and the truck will be just as fast as a losi, and we run on an 8th track with a 175 ft back straight.

the 1410 is pretty good. why do you want to change it out? I have the tekin sc4x and it is fine, but it lacks the snap power of the 4 pole. So if I dont carry my corner speed some jumps can be harder for me. Otherwise it is fine. The pro4 4000kv seems alright. Nice snap and easier to gear than the 4600. But a few people run the 1410 with great success at my track. Even the heavy losi truck fly with it.

You, sir, are surely playing with less than a full deck. ANyone with any constant exposure to you and your "cheese" knows this.

So move along, you surely wouldn't run this much smack in person, so do yourself a favor and move along.

i love the sonic 550 with the lrp sxx tc spec v2 with v3 software.

never had any issues with heat/power loss/etc.....

i used to run a 4000kv 4 pole tekin with the rx8 in a losi scte last year and ended up running it at 50-60 percent epa on the throttle to keep the car under control, and it was still a winner.

yeah, the 4 poles have more low end power, but the 2 pole 550s are smoother and more controllable. I really liked my reedy sonic 540's. So I would really give them a look.

Wildcat, since 1/8 scale platforms are legal I'd build an rc8.2e with sc8 shock towers and bumpers with narrower hexes to fit the width limit and you'll be golden. that combo works. some guys have converted there mugens over too. This I see is the trend for outdoor 4x4 sct.

that's the way it should have came from the get go since most of us run outdoor and run on big or bigger jumps.

It seems to run ok but was just looking for a little more power.
