True, USPS priority is technically 4 or less. However, ground UPS could take 7-10 days easy west to east coast.

Please make sure you follow my setup exactly. Hinge pin insert positions and everything. Also make sure you have turned off the drag break.

On indoor or smooth high bite outdoor tracks there are two things I typically change with this setup. I usually go out one position on the front and rear arms and take out some droop.
Actually your setup is on right now with the only change being 45/42.5 oils to compensate for the 100+ degree temps. I've also had the bumper on until now but haven't got to try it bumperless. I'm going out tonight to test that.
It only has had this issue on a few very extreme jumps at our outdoor track here, and another I recently traveled to. Other SCTs were struggling with the big jumps at the race I metioned I traveled to, but the air time was enough to get the nose back up with wheel speed.

When I had the 18 on I was over heating in a 10 min final I also only use less then 5000mah in a 10minute final. With this set up I run current limiter down under 50% as well and still has plenty
My track is loose and VERY large so my temps have been right at 130-140 range. Of course I don't know if I even made it to 10 mins yet as I have just been testing with the truck. If your on a med to high bite track I can see gearing that low but on my track that would mean to many rpm over the course of a lap.

Check you're buddy's scte 2.0 for how wide the front wheels are apart. One of my friends was running his new 2.0 with me last week. He's usually a little less consistent than i am, but last weeke he kept up with me. I took a closer look @ his truck and his front track width was a least .5-1 inch wider than mine. Figured he got somewider offset wheels (sc10 4x4 maybe?), but his truck was noticeably wider than mine and a few other scte's. I asked him about it and he said "oh they're aka wheels so it doesn't matter. It's what the guy @ the hobbyshop gave us". I told him how wheel offset works but he continued to run them the rest of the night leading him to the win and me in 2nd. Kind of pissed me off that his truck wasn't legal. Didn't want to tell the race director and be a pr**k because he's a good friend, but damn.

Love this top plate. I have one on all 3 of my Tekno vehicles now.

Yea his wheels are fine. My guess is the 2.0 is more stable than my truck because of how leaned over the shocks are compared to my Tekno. Which would also probably explain why mine turns so much better.

I was looking at that too. I assume it fits EB48 as well even though it states SCT410?

I know, different animals, but I'm hoping this motor in this truck gives me the same kind of explosive speed.
Temps were a tad lower on the HW motor itself, and a bit (like 5 degrees) higher on the ESC.

The motor is definitely more punchy than the 4600 thats for sure, and it should be lol. For top end, I think timing in that higher RPM range will do the trick.

I was impressed enough with the motor since timamybrown was running it when we met with a similar speedo that I wanted to try it.

Yep. Works on any of them. The first one I got I put on my EB48. I stole it of of the eb48 and put it onto my SCT410 1/8 buggy conversion since that is the car I have been racing with lately, but I just got 2 more one to put on the EB48 and SCT410 SC truck. It hasnt actually made it back onto the the eb48 yet though, mine is out "on loan" to a friend of mine who was on the fence about switching to Tekno. I loaned him my car for a few weeks so he could try it before he buys it. Im just a super nice guy like that. LOL That, and he is our local unbeatable "fast guy" and really knows how to set a car up. Ive driven his RC8.2e and its the easiest driving car I've ever touched. My ulterior motivation was to see what he could do with the setup on this superior buggy.

No. Xtreme Racing

Not a fan of the rest of their stuff but that top plate is sweet. I hated the stock plastic one.

Ok thanks. I'm going to order a couple for my eb and sct. I like the way that looks for sure. I was going to order the Tekno blue screw kit as well to lighten up the sct a tad. Might as well go with carbon towers and top plate.... :-)
