got a newb question. when your in the air getting ready to land and want to make a quick right turn. do you turn your wheels while in the air or after it lands?
@douglasedmonds8372 This is pretty situational. So, for example, if I were to go through a jump before a left turn, I will slam on my brakes and turn the car right so the car can rotate/whip through the air, then the car is pointing towards the left turn. This takes lots of practice.
Yes. There's a lot that's changed to make this truck that was originally designed for loose dirt tracks into handling decent in high grip dirt clay tracks. No crazy fabrication has been done. I do plan on making a video showing the suspension setup on the SC10 at some point whenever I'm ready.
@@jimkhanatime Awesome! I plan on running mine on an outside dirt track and it seems great out of the box. I'm super new to RC and the way yours handles the jumps is amazing. Mine tends to parachute but it might just be my driving. The first thing I'll do is try some decent offroad tires but curious to see what you did specifically to make it jump so well.
@JakesRC-gm5fk I haven't cut any holes on the SC10 body. Any time I jump, I hit full brake as my rear wheels get off the lip off the jump so the nose can point down easier. Part of it could be where your weight is at too. Having your battery more forward on the chassis will help this. Especially for it being a rear motor. The out of the box setup that it comes with is good for outdoor loose dirt. Good tires, 40 weight shock oil front and 35 weight rear will be a good start. I would definitely recommend AE 12mm shock caps that have bleeding holes on them so you can bleed the shocks easier.
@@jimkhanatime I took the Pro2 out again last night and moved the battery forward which helped quite a bit. I've been been practicing using a 35° jump ramp I built for bashing so it's a pretty aggressive slope but it's angled such that the suspension is fairly evenly compressed at launch. My Slash 2WD flys pretty straight if I let off right at the lip of the ramp but the Pro2 is still quite prone to flying with the nose too high and hitting the bumper on the ground first. I can get it just right like 1 out of 10 times. Running a heavier 3S battery helps a bit, and if I let off TOO soon and the nose dives I can lift it up a bit in the air with the throttle on 3S which is nice. Still super tricky to get just right. So you're technique is throttle on right up until the top of the ramp and then right on lift off, hit full brakes to rotate the car downward? How hard are you acceleration on the jump face? Or are you accelerating at all on the jump face?

Looking great! Have you made any suspension setup adjustments outside of stock?

Can you make a setup video?
@@juanrosas2544 I plan on to.
