What Sc to get
 
Well ive been watching video of Sc and they look real fun so Im looking to see what Sc you guys would choice

johnnygibbon 29-07-2010 04:27 PM

choices choices
 
sc s rule . good choice.
i am currently shopping for my second sct. its difficult.
i have the hyper 10sc. its great. so tough its untrue looks great gos great
very very simaler to the hong nor scrt10 which is amazing value
both require setting up right though. and a bit of tweaking
see rcshortcourse.com for all info and minor mods they really improve the trucks
these big 4wd trucks need beefy systms . like hv pro ect or 1/8th gear and batteries to match
also the new hpi mini trophy truck looks fantastic its top of my list at the min
but am looking at hpi blitz as well (2wd) for variety
stay away from losi strikes . not heard many good things aboutthem. but the wheels and tyres are ok i use em on hyper
the associated truck seems to do well and has loads of bits an upgrades
all the 2wd scs seem very competative and reliable but i like the 4wd a bit more
driiiiiift and power
whatever you get. tyres are expensive double what buggy tyres cost easy:thumbdown:but they dont wear to badly:thumbsup:
happy trucking

Thank you Johnny I was looking at Hpi the other day

Hi,i to am on the hunt after doing my first race with one,id never ran one before and it was a blast:woot:i did look at the mini trophy but am unsure what class they will let them run in,part of the fun is loads of trucks in the same heat:thumbsup:i was looking also at the SC10 FT,i run a durango and so to me ball diffs are a step back although the truck look ace,i think the best looking one is the BLITZ ESE :wubbut have been told the diff needs rebuilding after every race,and the AE is more a race car and the BLITZ is more a basher:confused:

Gaz_Stanton 29-07-2010 05:18 PM

SC10. Simples. :thumbsup:

reg 29-07-2010 05:43 PM

apart from the bling on the FT would the average jo notice the difference(race wise)beween the std kit and the FT kit,

mark christopher 29-07-2010 07:28 PM

tony truman was the fastest 2wd with a gear diff in!

Craig W 29-07-2010 10:54 PM

If they run gear diff 8th so what the prob


So its between the sc10 and blitz

PTRU 30-07-2010 07:11 AM

AE all the way. good truck and strong. Plus one other good thing it is fast and easy to drive.

wezzer 30-07-2010 10:39 AM

also spares are something to think about! AE spares are readily available:thumbsup: or someone will have or help at track side

reg 30-07-2010 10:43 AM

has any one heard anything about the TD one yet:wub

mk2kompressor 30-07-2010 10:44 AM

after seeing how well the Kyosho one runs and fly's over the doubles ive just ordered one (non rtr version)
only weakpoint is the rear axles so far:)

igbandy 30-07-2010 02:50 PM

I love my SC10 and would recommend one to anyone. After the weekends racing, I have rebuilt it to the stock Factory team spec. Hopefully it will handle even better.

Although I have succumbed to the 4wd side, and got a Hong Nor SCRT10 last night :)

ststa
 
looking at those stats the hpi mini trophy is hardley any differant to the scrt but runs 10th scale electrics. awsome.still want one .my hyper is having a major overahaul at the min

AE SC10 is a brill racer but it does have a weakness in the front wishbones.... but stick the RPM heavy duty parts in and it is well sorted.

...the Losi Strike might be cheap to start with but race it and you will go through diffs, drive shafts and turnbuckles like they are going out of fashion - I'm sure they're made of cheese.

If you have run a B4 and/or T4 then a lot of parts are interchangeable with the SC10 as well.

reg 30-07-2010 09:58 PM

am i right in thinking the gear diff from the std SC10 will just slot inplace of the the ball diff in the FT

Yes reg correct

graveltrap 31-07-2010 09:47 AM

SC10 front wish bones can break if you hit stuff hard...So can other cars!!

Either an SC10 or a Blitz will see you right, it's a good idea to check what other guys at your local club are running before buying ;) They will be able to help with setup tips and even spare's at times!

reg 31-07-2010 11:14 AM

does anyone know if the SC10 gear diff will fit in the BLITZ ESE:confused:
