My SC411 has 2 small spacer, like shims, that go on the front of the rotor, behind the front bearing. I don't see them in your pic. Do you have those? You can see them in this picture.

Trying to hook my sc401 up to a MMP. MMP wires are labeled "line A,B,C" but the motor has no labels and the wires are different colors than the ones on the MMP.

How do I know what wire are supposed to be connected? I'm assuming when I'm looking at the back of the can A,B,C should go in order? Blue = A, Yellow = B and Black = C?

Thanks for the help.

My VXL and SC8 ESC were coded as Blue-A, Yellow-B, Orange-C. So, I expect the Tenshock to be the same with red replacing orange.

For sensorless, it doesn't really matter. If it runs backwards, you just swap two of the wires.

Well, it can be a bit of a pain if you solder directly onto the terminals.

My 411 wires are
A=blue
B=yellow
C=red
I would imagine that the 401 is the same except black for red.

hook them up an any order if it spins in reverse then switch the 2 outer wires around (its a non sensored motor)

How does the lrh track compare to westcoast? Bigger or smaller, tighter or more open?

There pretty close to each other and checking oit a new track is always good.
