SCT rc style is where I am right now so this video was right on time. Plus your terms and slang you use are from my generation!!! Great video and keep them coming!!
Great work! Could not have said it any better, “BOOM and when you get it perfect… so good”. True driving!
Just getting started in buying one of these. Thanks for the info on upgrades.
Man I think you’ve convinced me to get an SCT I can run hard and put away wet. My Baja Reys, crawlers and Tamiya Touring cars are rigs I try to avoid bashing and more enjoy the hobby side with. 🤙🏼🏁 Thanks!!
You should!
I did the rear diff. Grease ! ! Made a huge difference in the truck.
This is the most slept on RTR out there.
Appropriate videos and explanations are a great help in understanding short course truck Rc. thank you.👍👍👍
We enjoy the playing as well as learning.
Thank you so much! Your videos are very informational. I have learn a lot from watching them.
I know they're halfway decent since i learn a lot doing them.
Love your videos!!! Thanks for all the tips on crawlers especially 😉
You are so welcome!
Another great vid Frances...that team associated short course truck seems really good for the value
It is! So good stock but ready to be modded as well
Tires are a must and first for us. We recently made a backyard track that has loose dirt and we put on some Bandlands. It made our Pro2 SC10 handle better around the turns
Very nice. Gyros are great. (and thanks for great audio ;)
Some really sensible suggestions there. Thank you. 👍🏻
Glad it was helpful! Trying to make sense of all the fun stuff.
Good advice thanks I’m getting one of these soon
Great info, thank you!
Great video , learning alot from you
Excellent review and informative
Great video as always, all those upgrades prob makes Pro4 SC10 in the territory of a Slash 4x4 Ultimate RTR (price wise) 😄but as you mentioned, it'll be able to keep up with those modified Slash/Losi/Tekno. Such a great platform.
Very true!
You know what though, you can upgrade it slowly. So you can put $200 in over time as you need or you can just buy a Slash Ultimate for 500 something and still might have to upgrade it.
hi 👋, very nice mod👍👍. for me the first mandatory upgrade for this pro4 is oil shocks, really better and perfect with 250 cst for all 4👌.
nice vid like always😉, have a nice day✌
250 cst. Does that make it lighter? What is stock?
stock oil is 40wt for team asso = 525cst.
with 250cst now is really smooth😃👍.
for me i think it was to hard in stock.
have a nice day✌
Cool truck and upgrades !
For me the fastest «upgrade» around a track was going from a 4x4 senton to a 2wd slash. Yes the 2wd slash brake and accelerate slower on dirt, but this give better time to react. A 4x4 understeers alot making the corner wider, while with the 2wd you just «handbrake» close around the corner and off you go. It also teaches yo
its not a 4x4 that understeers its the senton. they suck for racing. my losi tenacity tt pro steers so much better and drives better than the senton. you may can mess with the senton diff oils to make it steer some what better but the steering physically doesnt move as far as the losi.
@@jhue73 what's better for SC racing pro4 or tenacity?
@@Runk3lsmcdougal not sure i dont have a pro4 but I would like to and its cheaper. Anything associated makes should be good. I have a rc10t4.3 and its great. I had to change the out drives on the tt pro to the scte out drives because they wear kinda fast but other than that it is a great sct.
Got one of these and did the esc and motor upgrade and also the gt5 radio going to do the rear diff next. I also put badland tires on it. Thanks for the advice
With the upgrades how much have I spent overall?...I'm in the market and can't decide on the pro4 3s lipo combo @ $410 or just buy the team kit and all the fixings.
Great info Thank you!
you're welcome.
Kool video Brother, I'd add team shocks with the right springs to that list, much smoother,,, ;-)
Will look into that.
Great video. Thanks
Glad you liked it! I think it's key to explain what effects the mods do, exactly.
Great tips👍
Glad you think so!
wow very good value !
Glad you think so!
So, what I have noticed, especially with 2 of the 3 (so far) Spektrum motors for my Senton, they seize up quickly in dirt. Even when using an air compressor to clean out after runs. A buddy sold me a HW SCT motor, and it lasted awhile, but even that succumbed to seizing. Tried adding homemade guards between body and frame, and taping a hole in the bottom of the Senton frame floor. What is the best way to avoid it? I killed the first Spektrum motor after 10 days of having it, using it probably 5 of those 10 days.
Very nice and fun truck
It sure is!
Nice tips ,I have sct hobbywing ezrun max 10 3300kv motor 60a esc, running on 2s the combo system is capable of 4s ,but would have to upgrade stock parts on my ftx zorro,,as they would just melt like chocolate using 4s 😜🤪😜😅👍
Awesome video!
The sc10 2 wd was the best car to drive, powerful but smooth and big, a 1/10 big about as a 1/7. I restarted my rc hobby after 35 years and bought tamiya (like during those times), a losi 1/10 baja (very bad experience, burning tires, burning esc, loosing the lights at the first rollover, bought second set of tires which burned again....), and few other new brands that did not exist at the time. About the sc10, i must say that this car surprised me for the quality of the drive and performance with a brushed motor. However, when I wanted to check it for some maintanance I could not unscrew any part because I didn't have the right tools. Like Kyosho at the time, they had their own parts and tools. So I gave it away. if the brand of sc10 will change policy about that I will certainly buy it again and certainly brand new. That's a great drive.
This team associated truck is beautiful and awesome but what is your opinion on buying this and upgrading or just getting a Losi tenacity tt pro
Thats a really noticable difference in all round performance on the track after the mods. What was the kv of the motor that you put in & what size pinion did you go to ? Great video man.
The motor is 3300kv and the pinion is 16t.
What settings do you run on your fly sky for the gyro?
When you say you geared up, do you remember what you used? And is your pinion for 5mm shaft, or the standard 3mm shaft?
What 3s battery and charger do you recommend out of the box? I’m not sure what battery to buy n what fits thanks
You should look into the Dumborc X6 radios, they are superior to the flysky for bashing and racing vehicles being they have almost triple the range of a flysky and comes with gyro in the reciever aswell. All for about $45.
isnt flysky banned on a lot of tracks?
@@ukistudmuffin I'm not to sure, I know in my case they are very hit or miss when it comes to accuracy at range. Crawlers they work great, bashers I'd rather not take a chance of it darting left when I'm about to hit a jump (like my flysky did)
I'll check into them. Seems like a good budget option. There's also Radiolink which has impressive 600m range.
I put a hobbywing max10 sct combo in mine……number 6 would be a proline flowtek body
Yeah, that body looks so good. Nice venting too.
@@RCReviewChannel yeah it would parachute at high speed and flip the truck with the stock body
Im about to get the pro4 but was thinking afer i do some upgrades i might be in the same price area as the team kit.... decisions decisions
Hi, my sc10 will be equiped with an ezrun 3660sl and an esc 120a. Can U tell me which motor gear i have to choose to avoid motor heating please ?
Would you mind advising what the new gear ratios are?
Is that the same esc and motor out of the Losi tenacity tt pro looks the same
Can you post links to your upgrades? I was hoping to see them in the description. I have a brushless 4x4 Rustler and Stampede, trying to see if I can get a little more control from them.
description is updated now
Is an upgraded Pro4-SC10 better for racing than an upgraded Slash 4x4 Ultimate? What about drivability after upgrades between the two?
my slash has had the 2075x off my trx4 on it for a few years now lol
Yeah, that's more appropriate for a short course.
You did a great job! Thnank you for sharing all the details. In retrospect - if you would be picking another SCT vehicle with the intend to modify it to optimal performance - would you again start with the Pro4 SC10, or would you go with something else?
Thanks for the video - how much GREASE do you put in the rear diff? Do you fill it like as if it was fluid? Or half full? Line the diff cup? Thanks for advice...
For me, just a healthy dose of grease but nothing like diff fluid where the gears are swimming in it.
I am noob, so this is very helpful. Thank you. Also, if you have time to reply, when you say you geared up, what does that mean? Did you change the pinion only? Or pinion and spur? And what configuration? I have a 3800KV Copperhead 10 from Castle Creations in my Pro4 and have no idea how to setup gearing change.
Which Pinion do you use with the motor?
FYI, your Proline Badlands link goes to the 3.8" version
You should do a video on the the Losi Lasernut
Will do. We have one of those.
@@RCReviewChannel awesome!
So would a slash 4x4 be a better 1st SCT?
I think it's a toss-up but this is a hair better for track racing. The Slash 4x4 is better for all around bashing. Very close though.
I down graded my prosc10 to a 21 turn for new kids to racing at local trak
Can I get a link to the servo you mentioned?
snp.link/9f14b136 for a high speed Savox
M2 or M3 compound on the gladiators?
M2 is what we used
What servo was installed? Any model/brand/spec mentioned?
Otherwise, great video and tips!
In the description now.
It looks like motor , servo all discontinued. Can you tell me another brand that’s just as good, and same size and output thanks
Rubber matters to specific trac..
But just build a race kit unless it's your first car
The rougher and more unmaintained the dirt, the bigger the knobs one needs.
…it aslo teaches you throttle control.
I agree whole heartedly about the motor. The motor is complete junk. I run mine on track only and it gets so hot and cannot accel out of corners.
club racing the gyro is not allowed..
I need to get me a short course truck
for sure yeah!!
1:43 I think they're average
340 is not alot 🤣
New people should not buy 4wd cars
Get two wheel drives
If one has a nice track, then maybe. But if like most people just bashing, racing in very loose conditions, 4WD makes the hobby way more enjoyable. And it will still be hard to handle until tires and other things are upgraded.
Gyros 👎
Not ideal but if you don’t have the best tires, and if you play in very loose surfaces, they are good tools.
