After hearing about putting an ESC behind the battery, I decided to try it as well, and it really helps with balance. I had to remove the fan for clearance though. It is running at 85*f. Is that okay?

Are you not using extra weight in the back of the battery tray?

Hey Fellas,

So stoked here..just ordered a new SC10 Factory Team kit yesterday.It should be here by the end of the week. I was just wondering if there are any tips or tricks/links for when i build it...or should i just go by the manual to the T?

I got rid of my B44 setup entirely to go SC because of the following at my local track..plus i got tired of always breaking a-arms or something on the front of the car.

I can't wait for Mr. UPS to show up...lol

Thanks-

Well I guess I'll have to do like the racers at my track do, they take the rear and mod it to fit the front

New FT might be coming out before too long they alrdy have the b4.2 and now the t4.2 is coming out.

A new truck with Big bores and hexes and alloy bell cranks would be much cheaper with that all included.

I tried a home made front sway and didn't care for it. Maybe it would be better on smooth indoor clay, but outdoors it was terrible. :/

On high traction conditions sway bars are a must have .

On med traction bar's would not be very useful..

The gull wing arms would be a better choice on med to low traction conditions.
