Don't know about anybody else, but ThunderbirdJunkie is not happy with his Ruluxes, what with them being egg shaped and all. Both sets are.

Stock AE wheels is what he will be buying from here on out until Pro Line releases a non-beadlock for the SC10

Proline has released non-beadlock split-sixes. But they are black and I hate black wheels. Like my Ruluxes so far.

Really? Just checked their site a couple days ago and did not see them. Going to have to go scour their website!

Just scoured the PL site, did not see where it says the wheels are offered for the SC10.

So basically right now we're stuck with oval shaped Ruluxes or stock SC10 KMC Enduros.

Maybe they only make them for the Slash/Blitz. If so, my bad. Since I hate black wheels, I didn't look into them very far. Saw them at the track Saturday and thought they had them for all models by now.

What was happening was, the Ezrun had "profile 7" as default for the punch setting. It's not defined in the instruction book, but "profile 7" was pretty soft.

I then trial-and-errored profile 3, which worked good, so I thought "the lower the profile, the punchier it gets." So I switched it to profile 1 this time.

But it did not get punchier, it got weaker, I was wrong. After checking the manual (who would've "thunk" it...):

Profile 1 - Soft
Profile 2 - Normal
Profile 3 - Aggressive
Profile 4 - VERY Aggressive

Profile 5 and up - Undefined

For the EZrun, the Xeruns have Profile 5 and up, but I didn't look at the Xerun manual...

So I think I need to reprogram the ESC to profile 4 for the punch setting and it should cure my low-end torque. I'm fine with the top-end speed not being as fast (as my 4600Kv), which is to be expected, but I do need the "blip" to get over at least doubles and be able to swing the rear around 180-degree turns...

Yup, so it was error between keyboard and chair...

I am have ing the same problem with my 17.5 ezrun, no low end. What did you find to improve it .

I think this is the first ever post you've made where you didn't refer to yourself in the 3rd person.

Set your profile to 4, which is very aggressive for the punch control. This *should* give you a bit more low end. However, a 17.5 motor really isn't powerful at all... It's meant to be "stock."

Other 17.5 might be a bit more punchier, but if you really want low-end torque and a good high-end RPM, I'd suggest looking into a 10.5 and 13.5 motors...

I put the Castle 4600Kv back in mine (equiv to about 12T), and now it flies...

ThunderbirdJunkie did not refer to himself at all, so you are only partially correct

So, does anybody have a good link for how roll center affects handling? That's one thing that has never been played with on ThunderbirdJunkie's cars, and he noticed a fairly large difference when driving his truck today since putting the captured rod ends on the rear of the truck w/spacers.

How does one adjust antisquat? I know what it is but I don't know how it is adjusted. It's not adjusted by the degree of the toe in the carrier, right? I think it is something else

Z50king could use thunderbirdjunkies help

That will "angle" your rear arms up a bit, which is "anti-squat."
