Has anyone actually used TKR5570-17 to run their SCT410 as an 1/8 buggy with the wing kit, bumper, and body? Did you keep the standard 2s SCT electronics in there? Any issues?

This is how I had mine mounted and I didn't have to trim anything.

Yeah I really like the fit of the Losi performance body. Its a great fit and looks good as well. An added benefit is you can spend a few bucks more and get a pre cut one.

Barely had to trim for it to fit, I did it this way as opposed to Prostreet314 because I was nervous about wires getting tangled in the driveshaft .

+1 on the losi performance body, I run that the most. I also run and like the proline tundra body sometimes.

If you do them straight across it can pull the 3 tabs on the motor away from the fiberglass chip...if that makes any sense lol...this is why so many people have switched it I think...I know thats why I switched the wires around on my sct410 and eb48....

Also its nice to have a little extra wire for when you want to pull the mud guard without pulling the motor.
