the rear tire stays parallel to the surface, ( 0 camber ). in stock situation your rear tire goes from negative to positive camber thus losing traction .

I have no template, I have copied it from the b4.1 FT hubs. like AE copies our mods, we can copy theirs

the rise of the camber link is a whopping 9 mm

thanks Jim

I have to say that this is one of my favourites modifications next to the MTK slipperclutch basket.

here is my setup : http://www.petitrc.com/setup/associa...204/index.html

With this mod the rear of the truck stay much more planted throughout the whole cornering, even at high speed.

I can now do some powerslides coming up the straightaway out of an 180, I never was able to do this before, resulting in the rear end coming out of control.

It is now easier to push this truck harder and harder.



edit: here you have a video of the track I have tested this, so you get the idea. sorry that I have no video of my sc10 4x4 running with this, you see my yellow dex210 here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bitr...1&feature=plcp

Electronics:
Orion r10 pro
Tekin pro4 4000
11/62 gearing

I set up the truck to start with Kody's setup from the Spektrum race. Only thing I changed was the shock position on the rear arm from inside to outside and I am running bladders in the shocks not emulsion setup. I TQ'ed and finished second in the A due to a crash with a lapper . All in all it was a great race. It was a large 1/8 track that was a bit loose and dusty. Temps on the esc were 109 and 130 on the motor. Only complaint I had was the slipper (FT) is very inconsistent. I just ordered the RCShox Center diff but until I receive it, is there anything I can do to help with this?

Thanks!

Try a 15 tooth pinion.

I run 15/60 on my Pro4 4K and 35deg of timing on MMP from 8K to 17,200RPM.
Most people won't need to run this kind of timing but on a medium sized 10th scale outdoor track I temp at 125F ESC and 160F motor after 8min main.

15/62 will be much more efficient than your 11/62.
Center diff is much more consistent than slipper and you don't have to rely on running thicker diff fluid in front.
Replace your diff spring when you install your new center diff. Mine was sacked out when I installed mine. I used the V2 diff spring from the SC10 2wd.

I have the truck working pretty well with the center diff, chassis brace and other changes i've made from what I have learned here. I am ready to move on to upgrading the stock rtr esc and motor and need suggestions. I am not worried to much about price, but what I am looking for is a fast reliable combo that is also easy to get and run. I'm the kind of guy that will probably install the combo and never touch the settings once it runs good. Just looking for something that doesn't require an electrical engineering degree to make it perform well.
Thanks
Jody
