Getting it under 6 lbs. should not be a problem if desired.

It's a sealed motor, no vent holes.

Nah, its fine without the aluminum sleeve, we have found that they tend to run a little cooler without the sleeve on.

Thanks, the chassis has been milled so the battery sits 1.5mm into the chassis and is positioned back and as close to the centerline as possible. I also added the 2mm graphite spine to stiffen the chassis.

Novak 4.5 550 w/ 14mm rotor. Combined with the MMP its absolutely dialed with a ton of adjustability, I know some hate the MMP, but you really can't go wrong with this combo...

I am having an issue with my Novak Pro ESC where when I turn it on all I have is steering. At first it was just cycle it off and back on and it would work. Now I am having to cycle it multiple times. I assume in time it will just quit all together. A friend is having the same issue. Any ideas? I will be contacting Novak this week.

I had 2 different Havoc Pro SC ESC's do exactly the same thing , eventually all it will do is run the fan and no lights will light up , I dont run them anymore When they work they are great , when they work that is

Only 8t rear diff's have issues and the 'real' problem most of the time is people not shimming them correctly. I went through several before understanding this. This is not a 'set it' and forget it item in the truggy. The buggies on the other hand pretty much are, I've never lost a diff in the 8ight or 8ight-e and never had to shim or adjust anything.

EDIT: Also note 8t diff issues are stripped ring/pinion gears, not the case on the scte for those having issues it's with the diff pins/gears on the inside.

both have rx8 esc. the 810 has a neu 1509 and the SCT have the novak 550 5.5 similar top speed. both on 3s

the large tripple jump the 810 made every time no matter how i hit it.
the SCT was hit and miss sometimes nosediving uncontrolablly.( it was windy out)
Reduce the weight of your truck... it will become a dream. Search this thread for a lot of weight saving ideas. Get down to under 6.25 with lipo/body race ready on the track and you will enjoy it much more. I have my setup for a large 1/8 track that is med bite with some dust posted a ways back as well. PS the 1410 is a much better motor and lighter than the ballistic in this truck.. iMO.
