Just reading through this thread and looking at the vids posted, I'm stunned that AE didn't include sway bars with this thing. It looks like it should be standard, not an option.

Anyway, looking at the pic posted a few pages back, they don't look too different from the Losi sway bars. I bet you could make the Losi's work.

Just a suggestion. I'm sure this truck will be great but it looks like it is having some early teething problems just like I expected. All new vehicles do.

Ya, it seems to be going through some quality issues. That's what you get when you outsource to the lowest bidder.

Hopefully it will be worked out for the next batch. Maybe AE will start including the swaybars. I can't see them adding very much to the cost of producing the kit. Maybe a few cents per box?

already tell the differance between the sc10 and the slash I ran last year. just the few turns I made in my yard was awesome for a 4x4. can't wait

anybody get any spare parts? I have both front and read pully''s and a few screws left over. I went thru the manuel again and know I din't miss any screws.
Be aware the "spare" pulleys are the 19t overdrive pulleys vs. the stock 20t.

What is the benefit advantage of 20 t vs 19t clicker?

I don't understand.

If you run the Savox servo with a MMP you need to run a capacitor right?

What are the specs of the Savox?

Does anyone have a vid on the fastest way to pull the servo?
I had to readjust my servo horn as it was not straight, was 20-30 mins work, basicly removed belt off just the front, unscrewed and removed the whole front half of the chassis, then went from there.

What ride height does everyone like?

I also wanna know what pinionu used and you MMP settings. and did you use the 32 pitch?
I have the exact same electronics.
Im thinking of a 32 pitch 13T pinion for a medium sized track

Has anyone put the Losi SCTE sway bars on? Is there any mods necessary to make it work?

If you run the 19t overdrive clicker it will make your front tires pull more then the rear allowing you more throttle out of the corner especially on loose tracks

Default Help needed

I just installed the belt (pg. 27) and went to check for free rotation. The belt when held and pulled towards the front clicker is just locked tight. If the belt is pulled towards the rear of the truck I get the clicker sound. I don't feel this is correct.

Could someone let me know if this is correct and if not, what I might have done incorrectly. I didn't over tighten the diff cases, made sure they weren't binding.

I went back over then manual and only thing that I can think of to cause this might be I installed the diffs with the screws facing inwards. I worked on this late into the morning when I wasn't the most awake and aware (not a good idea).

Thanks in advance.

If anyone has a Blitz body, you can use it on your SC104x4, just have to turn the rear body mounts around so they are pointing towards the front of the truck, and you have to move the body mount holes in the front about 1 inch or so towards the back of the truck. The cut out for the rear bumper even fits the same. I did this with my son's old blitz body till I get mine painted.
