Asso SC10

[Eimer]

hi,

have anybody more information about the new asso Truck?

would it be electric or nitro?

I hope it will be a opponent to the Traxxas slash!

greets patrick

[russmini]

Yeh, i'm thinking it will be T4 based... Hope so... :D

greets patrick

try this (http://www.rc10.com/images/homepage/2009/sc10_360.html)

looks to have T4 front arms (arm has stand off on it like T4 arms) and T4/B4 rear motor gaurd so could be based on the T4 chassis

[B44&501xRacerEX]

I will get one, I have never owned a T4 before this will be a first.
I'm hoping a class like this is picked up on.
They are gonna probably make it an "OPEN" class.
Cant wait to build it.

If these things are the same size as the Traxxas Slash then this might be a fun class. I believe in the States they run the Slash class with spec motors to keep the racing close. If the same could be done here it would be a good laugh with these thrown into the mix.

Good ol' Thunder Tiger.. that's the diff from their electric cars...

[Crazy L]

I saw this today, I was out earlier having a go with a mates Slash, it's fun to drive, more so with 8.4v though.

I wonder if I could persuade the guys down at torch to hold a heat if enough turn up.:D That would be a classic, all running spec motors:lol:

[Cooper]

aaaah stock pussies, just run modified !

The limit is your skill and the grip, not how much cash you have for the best batteries/motors.

[B44&501xRacerEX]

I'm just throwing my 8.5 Novak XBR in it when it arrives. It hasnt been used very much at all I threw
it in that touring car and it might never be used, so I might as well throw it in the SC10. Oh yeah
it has the sensored rotor/front endbell upgrade installed also, forgot I did that a couple months ago,
only had 2 runs on it. Then I looked on Novak's website and they discontined this esc.
Or the Havok basically took the place of it.

[millzy]

Ive got one on order they are wicked

the SC10 is the lecky one bassed on the t4- and is a kit
and the SC8 is the nitro one bassed on the rc8 truggy and is an RTR

both are wicked fun

there is a video on lee matrin with the SC8 on youtube

[peetbee]

Anyone got any idea of price for one of these?

[millzy]

yeah- about the 180 mark

[DCM]

they are $180 in the US, pre-order... so guess £180 is about right

[millzy]

i know its right!

cheeky lol

[DCM]

you been rifling through H's drawers again young man..... you will get in trouble.. I will tell!!!!

So, Millzy will have the first PINK CORR truck :woot:

[wezzer]

[millzy]

have you seen the Excel spread sheet he has!!! on man i was there with part number for 2 hours last night!!

H showed me the sc10 sunday night, looks so cool had to put and order in and yeah i got told March it should be in the shops

[B44&501xRacerEX]

Someone said on Rctech that the slash wheels will fit the SC10.
(Practically everyone ignores me there so I stopped posting there.)
I hope so, so people can have more tire and wheel choices.;)
Also tower lowered thier price from $248 to $198.

[Chequered Flag Racing]

hope Schumacher come out with a Yellow compound tyre so it can be on our indoor sports halls

[wezzer]

i know we run on carpet at our local club with jumps etc and only a little lyno or polished !!! i think we will be running kit tyres , even if theres little traction on the slippy , more skill lol
I wouldnt of thought schumacher will bring some out though, but you never know , look at the inside diameter of the wheel compaired to the out side :bored: just the same as the sc8 ,

[GRIFF55]

I think it would be best to keep it as a box stock class so the racing/rubbing stays close!!
Any more news on delivery and price??

[millzy]

read my other post you fool :):)

duh

[B44&501xRacerEX]

I agree, at least for the slash class. I wont be doing much to the SC10.
The only thing I might do is use some RPM ball-cups on the turnbuckles.
Other than that it will be box stock setup, unless I have chassis slap,
which from the video above looks like it handled well with the kit oil.

It's gonna be alot of fun building this kit.

[wezzer]

check out rc10.com
propper vid on there
looks sssscccchhhhhhwwwwwweeeeeeettttt as

[B44&501xRacerEX]

I know it's pretty cool, there was a bit of chassis slap, but most
stadium trucks do that anyhow. Heck even my B44 does it, depends
how big the jumps are.;)

[sosidge]

These CORR trucks could prove to be a great low-cost class to get people into off-road.

Keep them brushed so the stock ESC's work, keep the scale tyre sizes, keep the enclosed shells, should be a lot of cheap fun with a little rubbin' thrown in.

I think Losi do a Desert Truck like the Slash and SC10 too don't they?

[wezzer]

nope
theirs is not closed wheels

[_sleigh_]

Wez, when do the SC10 kits/spares arrive in the Uk?? I have a strange urge to have a play with one of these beasts.

[GRIFF55]

I'll race ya sleigh!! (ram you i meant:p):lol:

Hi
unofficially early march dude

[B44&501xRacerEX]

I think it will look good sitting beside my Tamiya F150 and Desert Truck.
I like the fact they chose a gear diff instead of the ball diff, and I'm
sure that gear diff will fit a T4 also. I wont actually load up on spares
until I break something on it.:yawn:

[Northy]

Hey B-Mag, you da man.

Not spent so much on meds recently to buy this bad boy? Good call I'd say. :lol:

[strobe]

Wezzer.
Will you be racing these at Leominster on a friday Night.:p

[B44&501xRacerEX]

Hey B-Mag, you da man.

Not spent so much on meds recently to buy this bad boy? Good call I'd say. :lol:

G
Are you gonna get one to Northy?
Or has this class kicked off in Europe yet?
It's pretty popular here, cant run my 4wd buggies much here anyhow.:thumbdown:
I have to get something that people want to race here, and I know
this one will be it.:D

[Northy]

No I don't have one B-Mag, not sure if I'll get one, I have lots of toys already! :lol:

It's not taken off over here, hell, standard trucks are still thin on the ground over here :thumbdown:

We have designed a start area at our new purpose built track to be wide enough for 10 trucks (or e 8th's) side by side though ;) So I'm hoping they do take off.

[wezzer]

Wezzer.
Will you be racing these at Leominster on a friday Night.:p
yes dude sure will , we got enough for a heat already :D
it does appear as though we will be looking at late march early april for them :bored:

[Neil867]

Looking forward to running one of these at Leominster:thumbsup:

[strobe]

Just asked the wife for 1. She said it is ok to get 1.
What shell designs will be available Wez. Red Bull Etc..

[Neil867]

Are you sure your wife said you can have a new car:p

[wezzer]

At that rate the E 8th's might take off faster than the trucks.
A few guys have been running the E 8th's around here, they are cool,
but really expensive. I'm hoping this class takes off, and Id like the J82
class to get started here also, I saw one of those run and they are cool.;)

[General Accident]

:drool: want one, neeeeeeeeed one, oh yes. Was going to stuff a brushless setup into a Tamiya Brat but this looks way better.

[Scouser]

Advertised at £179 on CML and looks to be taking the Traxxas Slash head on.
Length :- SC10 550mm Slash 568mm
Width :- SC10 293mm Slash 296mm
Wheelbase :- SC10 327mm Slash 335mm

All seems pretty close to be coincidence!;)

[Spoolio]

Yeah but because it doesn't come as an RTR, I can see the validity in some peoples thinking that it'll not be a fair fight against a Slash as motorwise it's a free-for-all what you decide to put in it. I'm not saying people will leave their Slash stock but I guess many will - at least until they get taken apart by an SC10 with a 7.5 brushless running lipo cells.

[B44&501xRacerEX]

Tower Hobbies said Late March last month, now it says Mid March.
Getting closer......:woot:

[Lee]

B-mag, i run a 14t pinion on mine do you think thats about right?

Oh and you need to get on facebook dude :thumbsup:

[General Accident]

Are they here yet? Anybody know? Also, do the shells deffo come pre-finished or do they need painting, I thought the blurb says it was a clear shell but people at the club have been muttering that they've ordered Red Bull this and Lucas that etc.

[wezzer]

Hi
due in blighty early to mid april, and i believe we will see them in our shops the same time as the rest of the world , which is nice for a change !
they wont come with any licensed body decals , so the bodies will be clear and have no sponsors decals ! but they will be available sepperatly, which ones exactly i am unsure of yet ! :lol:

[telboy]

Where will be running these?
Wil they just run along side other trucks?

[Scouser]

A few members have got them (pre-ordered) at Southport and they will be running in the truck class until enough of them or Traxxas Slash's turn up to get their own heat.:thumbsup:

[sime46]

:thumbsup:We plan to run these at Mansfield and at Broxtowe cos a good few of us have one ordered. Gonna be mnt fun by the looks of them.

SWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTT!!! !! Cant wait now. Any ideas when they comin? I'm gonna spend the money if it doesnt come soon:blush:

[91notch5.0]

guys, i have bad news: my local hobby shop here in the u.s.a is one of the best in the country. i stilll have not seen this truck on the shelf.

[Spoolio]

A-Main Hobbies are listing it as being in stock 31st March, so if this is correct (rather than an "expected date") I guess we should see them mid April as Wezzer said earlier in the thread. What motors are you peeps thinking of running and does anyone know if the licensed bodies will be available from launch?

[B44&501xRacerEX]

Most people will be running 17.5,10.5,13.5 in thiers.
I'm gonna run an 8.5 XBR in mine, since I still run nimh, just dont have the money to go lipo right now.
But I do have an extra metal geared servo that I can use too.
I wont start running it until people start showing up with them.
I'm not racing it against the slashes, dont want a pretty truck like this all beat up.:confused:

They keep getting pushed back, first I thought I would get it this week,
it might not be to the end of next week now.:bored:

I'm still deciding what paint scheme I wanna use. White with blue and black?

hmmmm

me thinks i wanna convert my t4 to one of these
how much would that be (ish)

[wezzer]

hi dudes
well they have landed in the uk BUT:thumbdown: customs have them until early next week, the little buggers
on a plus note ( for me any how) i have mine and have built it just painting body this weekend and will post some pics
they are sooooo cool cant wait
laterz

[GRIFF55]

OOOOOO YOU TEASE!!!!

[poopers]

hmmmm

me thinks i wanna convert my t4 to one of these
how much would that be (ish)

The guys on RC Tech discussed this idea. I think general consensus was that it would actually be cheaper to buy a SC10 kit than convert a T4

I'm suprised how big it is! (sc10!):lol:

Tempted to try the diff in the b4/x6

Looks ace Griff. Nice spray job. Youre getting better:thumbsup:

[Neil867]

Got mine last night :thumbsup:

[russmini]

Yep, bloody 1am before i got to Bed ! lol. Getting there though. Mainly just the Shocks and Electrics to install now. Oh and Paint the Shell.... Still can't decide how to do it, lol

[minivtec]

wooh just finished mine apart from the body i need decals some one help please:thumbsup:

[strobe]

Griff. Getup to Leominster on a friday night. 9 possible entries. Wez had his hands full last night:thumbsup:

[westie]

wez's sc10 was awesome im tempted :drool:

[telboy]

Now, just a question, but do you reckon that these SC10's have to be painted up with 'scale' looking schemes on them?

I do.
I think they should look as real as poss, without any garish silly paint jobs.
I'm doing a RRCi special job on mine.:thumbsup: But to look like it should be on a CORR grid.

[wezzer]

:thumbsup:gotta be scale, non of this custom rubbish

[GRIFF55]

subtle or tough looking for these babies! I think a buggy style design would look out of place.

[greggy]

when i get mine i will be doing it like the monster energy car, no stickers though :)

[russmini]

I'm doing mine in my colours... Blue, Green White, but...

It will be a Scale Design, still not finalised it yet actually... Will have a look tonight again.

:thumbsup:

[telboy]

So, where are they going to able to be raced on regular occasions?

[Neil867]

There are about 8 of us at Hereford Club who have them.
We run on friday nights. If you want more info give Wezzer a pm:thumbsup:

going to build it tonight
any tips before i build it ?

[Benh]

picked up my new sc10 today

any tips before i build it ?

Put extra spacers internally on rear springs. I think a 3mm should do it. The drive cup (at the wheel) rubs on the wishbone. Or cut away about 2 mm of the wishbone if you want to keep the droop.

Make sure you remove all of the burs right down to the front hubs. Even 1/2mm was rubbing/knocking on the inner spokes.

That's about it I think - can't remember much else, was mesmerised by the size of thing. Every time I moved it, there were tidal surges on the local estuary!

[strobe]

Sprayed and stickered up shell earlier:thumbsup:

[russmini]

Well, here's mine at last...

Overall i'm Very happy with it, but... I backed it with Silver to enhance the Pearl, but i really wish i'd used White now. I used White on the Truggy i've got and the Green is soo much Lighter and Brighter, but i'm happy and i know for future.

All but the Black are Pearl Colours, so it really does Shine/Glisten Nice.

There you go. Hope you like it.

The main thing i'm happy about is, the 4 Colours i used and the Crisp lines between them, especially the Roll Bars (they were quite hard to mask off Good)

[telboy]

So where is going to run them then on a regular basis.?

First thoughts even before opening the box: Cor blimey it's big. Second thought after opening the box: Eff me, it's hooooge!

[strobe]

This looks Nice. Roof air scoop:thumbsup:

[telboy]

Shell looks nice, the paint job looks wrong though, confirming my thoughts that custom spray jobs don't look right on these truck. :)

[strobe]

Full size truck photo's can be found hear: http://lucasoiloffroad.com/photo.htm

The unlimited 2 and 4wd trucks run V8 engines producing 800+ HP

[Chris Doughty]

I recon I could 'devolve' my scheme back into its Valvoline NASCAR roots and it would look pretty ace!

[telboy]

That would look WAY COOL!!:thumbsup:

[greggy]

agreed

im iether doing mine like the monster energy truck or like colin turkingtons rac bmw from last years btcc

[Spoolio]

Any thoughts on which way to go here? The manual doesn't indicate anything other than black grease, but the setup sheet has a section for diff fluid. I've put some 50,000wt in that I've had lying about but it still feels a bit loose compared to a ball diff.

[Spoolio]

Also - and related to the current thread on the Associated section - can I swap out the steering bushings for the same bearings as on the B4? Maybe it's just mine but the stock setup has massive amounts of drag even with the screws set "loose". Before anybody asks, I have tightened the servo saver bolt down as far as I dare, I'm mindful that the plastic seems to be a lot softer than on a B4, so I'm scared of stripping threads.

[wezzer]

ran mine on friday for the first time , THESE THINGS ROCK!!! i cant remember having as much fun with an r/c, car simply awesome.
running kit set up and kit tyres on carpet with jumps etc
love it !!!
you need to get one mr Doughty !!!!:thumbsup:

yeah i total agreed here extremly fun to play with..
my son begging me to get another one so we have a bashing each other :eh?:

but came up with problem yesterday as sc10's diff gear mesh making a clicky noise after 20 min playin with my son
so got home and stripped it out and add 2 skim ring each behind the sun gear in diff so finger cross it sorted
using 19turn motor with 87 spur 19 pinon and it super fast :thumbsup:

[quincey]

I ran mine at southport last sunday,it was way better than my slash it corners so well and jumps great,my only problem is that bloomin battery strap-cannot get my trakpower saddles in there and my 8.4v battery wont fit in either.

What size shims did you use? Mines sounding pretty rough and I've not run it yet!!:confused:

[Body Paint]

TEL: It seems as though people are simply doubling up on the shims , I'm going to build mine with 2 shims either side and we'll see how it goes;)

SPOOLIO: It is normal for a gear diff to feel a fair bit looser than a gear diff, I have yet to find any of the yanks setups but I would guess they use oil somewhere between 10 and 80k

[russmini]

The Yanks are using the Black grease and thats it... AE Forums will tell all... :D

[Spoolio]

[quote=Body Paint;240780]TEL: It seems as though people are simply doubling up on the shims , I'm going to build mine with 2 shims either side and we'll see how it goes;)

:confused: the sun gear is keyed to the drive pin on the outdrive yes? I understand that putting a shim onto the end of the outdrive will "lift" the gear a bit and mesh it tighter into the planet gears but surely it'll also reduce the amount the gear sits on the drive pin by a corresponding amount. Isn't that a bad thing? I expect I'm probably wrong as usual so where can I buy these shims? So far I have finished each build step with no shortages but also (this is where you know its not a Tamiya) absolutely no spare nuts, bolts or shims. Remarkable.

[Body Paint]

Looks like AE have admited the problem so I guess if you contact either the shop you bought it from, or, CML they may be able to suply the shims.

I copied and pasted this from the USA AE site:

OK GUYS AND GALS, here is what was found out from our R&D department.

The material that the diff gears was to be made up off was changed to beige type material we have in the kits and the material cools differently, and sometimes when the part (ie:gear) cools after being molded it could have an extra hundred thousand of more space inside where the large spider gear are placed.

So in some of the gears when you take off you hear a clicking sound or when you turn.


Not all of them will have this, but some do and the ones that do should get me your info.


We have the shims that it takes to correct this and just need you to fax or mail me your address with the notation of SC10 Shims on it and I will send you out the shims to correct the spacing problem.

The RTR's will have the shims included in the box and if needed they can be installed.

[Body Paint]

[quote=Body Paint;240780]TEL: It seems as though people are simply doubling up on the shims , I'm going to build mine with 2 shims either side and we'll see how it goes;)

:confused: the sun gear is keyed to the drive pin on the outdrive yes?

We are talking about shims that are a couple of thou' thick, this shouldn't make much difference to how the sun gear sits on the drive pin should it?

You're right, I sat and studied the manual last night after I posted that, then I went onto the forums at RC10.com and read the "Modifications" posting there. It's a known issue and I misunderstood the positioning of the shim anyway. Now I really do get it :blush:. Told you I was probably wrong!!!

[greggy]

umm, this might sound silly but am a n00b so here goes

if you are having trouble with the std diffs, why dont you change em to the b4 ball diff :confused:

You only need to add 2 tiny little shims to make it work just fine, that's a lot cheaper than buying a ball diff. Also I think the SC10 uses metric bearings and the RC10 uses imperial bearings (though I have not checked that out yet)

one of the nicest sc10's i've seen yet:wub

[sime46]

:thumbsup:We just ran a class of SC10's indoor at Mansfield tonight. It was the best fun racing I've had for ages. These trucks are absolutely awesome. Mines an RTR but its got my electrics in now. Watch the rear wheels lads cos with the stock drive pins we had 2 trucks wreck the wheel centres when the pins spin inside the wheel. We put longer pins in and this helped a lot. Some of the americans are putting epoxy in the holes around the pin groove but not sure how good that is? One thing is for sure tho...these trucks are fantastic fun and handle fantastic right out of the box.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

[TRX450RACER174]

Yes i put epoxy in my wheel centers also. Another thing is you might add a washer between the nut and wheel as i have heard the the nut is bottoming before the wheel is tight.

[sime46]

Good call mate. I hadn't noticed that.

[TRX450RACER174]

:drool::thumbsup:

[Spoolio]

We put longer pins in and this helped a lot.

Sime could you let me know where can I get some? I've just got to this build step and don't want to strip a wheel especially seeing as SC10-specific spares are virtually non-existent at the moment.

[sime46]

To be honest spoolio I found some in my box. I think they were the solid front drive pins from nortech racing for the Cat sx. Any needle roller than fits through the hole and is longer than the kit pins is ideal. Just match the length to the maximum you can get into the slot on the wheel. Washers between the wheel and nut and also the epoxy in the area around the slots would ensure reliability. Probably overkill but will keep you running. Other than this the trucks seem bullet proof. Watch the diff for clicking too. May need extra shims. Out of the 3 that ran last night, mine was the only one that did it. Re shimmed it and its perfect now. You'll love it. It is totally different from anything I've driven. Surprisingly it is dialled from box settings and has great steering and grip.:thumbsup:

[sime46]

Also, speak to Andy at PBM about spares as I beleive CML have good stock so he'll get you what you need. Or ebay, the yanks have everything. With postage it works out roughly the same cost but obviously not as convenient as PBM. (I'd try Andy first):thumbsup:

I saw the one in DCMs pic on Sunday and I love it, I'm torn between scale and custom now. I might do something scale but with my colours and sponsors

[DCM]

thing is, until H puts stickers on it, it will look custom, but there are CORR PRO trucks with more than 'block schemes' out there on the tracks too. I ain't saying an Andy Moore replica would work, but a more traditional flames or hotrod schemes will work, imagine how cool they would be, going round the track.

You thinking about including the trucks in the WRCA Craig, I think that would be wicked, keep it to kit tyres and a 10.5

Not sure wether to paint the wheels black or not? They look cool on some designs, but think I've got too much black on there and thnk that it may look too black.
Other than that, I think I may throw some alluminium finish paint at them. I don't like the look of the 'glittery' silver that the wheels are painted in.

[Benh]

After recieving delivery 2 weeks ago, finally got the chance to run it yesterday. Brilliant fun.

I cannot believe how grippy the tyres were on an outdoor grass. The body roll and grip roll was immense, but funny too. Due to the design, on most occasions, it will roll back onto its wheels.

We ran 13.5T as a standard and were plenty quick enough on a large outdoor track. Pulling wheelies half way down the straight, if you catch the bumps right.

With the "squidgy" stock set up, trying to keep it in a straight line under power was both challenging and good fun.

We could change the setups, but we have decided, for comedy purposes, to keep the trucks stock, 13.5 and ease them through corners as opposed to throwing them in. The hard you throw into a corner, the hard the corner throws you out!:lol:

Need more about for a proper rumble!!!

So, I swiped the wheels and tyres off my B4 and put them on the SC10 just so I could set the camber and then I looked at the truck tyres and the B4 sitting there with no shoes and I thought...

[Spoolio]

The truck looks like some sort of weird-ass B4 limo or something with stock buggy wheels on it. I had to run them both just because, well, because I could. The truck was super-stable and I was throwing it round all over, no problems. Drifted almost as well as my old Tamiya Sand Rover (no-diff). The truck tyred B4 was as 'orrible as you'd expect. I tried that on grass and it just kept falling over.

Haha! I like the B4 limo!

[cjm_2008]

it looks as if the SC10 may well create a whole new buzz class, like the early tamiya ta-01 based touring cars kicked off the on road thing in the early 90s.

i'm absolutely loving the scale looks, and all the youtube vids I've seen would indicate that they're a hoot to drive, offering some nice progressive sideways action. if someone could nail down a set of rules (10.5 or 13.5 motors only for example) this could well go massive.

I should have mine by the end of the week :thumbsup:

[bondy]

Had to re shim the diff gears the other night !

Mine was a kit version and basically had done around 40 mins running before it went on the first run at broxtowe last friday ! The big shim that come with the kit had basically worn out in the center where the pin would turn around and semi collapsed.! Thanks Rich for the shim kit I was able to add a shim to re-inforce this part and the diff is now ok.

Ps after trying 3000 wt oil then 30,000 weight oil and then just the black grease supplied. I can say the grease supplied is the better.

Just think that you will have to check the diff every two or 3 meetings and change the shims clean it out and re grease as a precaution ! No big deal though ! :thumbsup:

Obviously the 'racing' wil be serious, but it should be in the rules that the only thing you can change is the shock oil and change to a ball diff.

Hi Tel, I have run the RTR SC10 review model for RRCI now and It runs very sweetly:thumbsup: (shims in) lol
30 mph on a reedy li-po out of the box. I ran it on a BMX track with lots of dust dirt and gravel. It ran very well with no damage to the guts at all and I ran it hard with over 2 hours of jumping etc I've now run both the SC10 and the Slash and have to say the SC10 run's rings around the Slash it terms of handling.

When I review the T4 some time ago I used a B4 buggy body cut to fit the longer T4 chassis, this work very well in stopping sh## getting into the guts. I'm looking to do the same with the SC10 but as the wheelbase is longer It may not work as well.
I'll post some photos as soon as I can get it sorted out
