SC10 4x4 Thread
Guys we run 10 minute mains at our local 1/8th tracks so I'm concerned about run time with my Tekin Pro4 4000/RX8 setup. My truck hasn't arrived yet so I don't know how large a pack I can fit. This is the pack I want:

Can anyone comment on the fitment of this pack?

I really need some help:
Currently, I have a SC10 4x4 with a Traxxas Velineon motor/ ESC setup using the optional 18t pinion from my Slash 4x4 and AE's 32P spur gear. The problem is that the ESC and motor are running extremely HOT (motor is about 220 F & ESC 154 F). I'm guessing my gearing is the problem. What would you suggest I use instead? By the way, I am using a 2s lipo to power truck.
Thanks,
JD

As far as making a 10 min main, you will not have issues like the durango or losi with the pro 4. The last 10 min main i ran in, used 4700mah from my pack on a medium large 1/8 track with mid to low 30s laps, using the pro4 4000kv/xerun 120amp geared 14/58 with turbo and boost , so...... and i was usig the High Velocity Racing pack which are an awesome pack.
Hopefully my answer helped
you realize this is an AE thread dont ya? you should probably go on the Slash thread and ask them since thats the truck you have questions about. i dont konw what a protrak suspension is or really anything about the slash 2wd!
You will have no problem fitting the battery in dimension wise(just checked my pack with my caliper, it has the sam dimensions). It may be a little trick getting it in and out with the wires hardwired to the case like that though. go with a pack with bullet terminals if you can.

Very helpful thank you! You hit a sore spot on the DESC410 and it's limited pack configuration. That's my only gripe with the truck. You have to be spot on with your run times or you want be finishing the race. Luckily it only got me once but once bitten is twice shy. I'll keep until I decide if the SC10 is the right truck for me.
If you have any qustions about getting a setup just ask, you may get multiple answers, but the truck can be setup many different ways. Unfortunaly the truck with the out of the box setup isnt that great, so dont be discouraged, the truck can be very quick!

Now to answer your question...yes, it will fit. I throw all my used race wheels on my son's Slash with the Protrac suspension mod with no worries.
Hey guys, Getting my first SCT4x4 its the biggest class at the track so thought I would give it a go.
I run M11x and Air servos and REC, question is what is a good place to get good but not over the top Batts, Speedo and ESC? I race locally and here and there not trying to win the nats, just want to be competive but not have more into this than my nitros...haha So whats a good place? Thanks
