Losi 1/10 TEN-SCTE ARR 4x4 Short Course Truck Thread
Run short wires to be safe.
The Turnigy heat sink will fit around a 540 but is WAY too long for a Pro 4 or any comparable 540 can. Imo that heat sink is better suited to 550's for the fact they will dissipate Massive amounts of heat But at a cost of weight. They aren't exactly Light. When the Pro 4's weren't available I was able to Gear up to a 18T pinion with a LRP 5.5 and SAIL past the competition with no heat sink/Fan combo, All the while at 150 degrees on a large 1/8 track.
You Could Cut it Down and make it fit, But I personally dont see the need. The Pro 4's are already pretty insane in the power/ Top end dept so I dont see a Need to Gear up any further than the Stock 15/40. Temps are again around 150-160 pending the traction on said day.

The weight thing is not a big isuue with me. I try to focus on having a clean race and The weight thing is the last thing I'm worried about. If I was good enough to never mess up and was trying to shave 10ths of seconds or more of my time then weight would be an issue. Your right though it isn't light.

I just got done doing mine and it worked out great. tricks I found from searching this thread. Two of the center diff screws will be too long so change out the screws from the front diff and both will work great. also you have to trim the screw that holds the mud guard under the motor. I cant wait to run-nit but I broke the screw that connects the servo saver .
