I'd also like to hear if others have run the 10sc...

RE: 8e turnbuckle size?

ya, i initially bought a 4mm wrench (cause they called the turnbuckles 4mm ones), but soon found out that it actually isn't. I could do as you suggest and file the 4mm wrench to fit.

We don't have Menards in canada, and HD didn't have the mini-size. I have been looking online, but can only find singles for a reasonable price. I've found sets, but once you add the shipping costs...

RE: ESC Programming

As far as I know, you don't need the LCD programmer for the 80A ESc. I use the LED one on my aftershock 8e. You just don't get the USB update functionality.

RE: Earthquake 8e motor wiring

Just put the yellow to yellow, and it doesn't mater for the others. It will just switch direction of the motor and your transmitter has a switch to take care of that.

Is there a manufacturers name on the ESC? If it's like the other hobbywing Ezrun, then it's programmable. I would look for any indication of manufacturer/model # on the ESC and try googling that.

RE: aftershock 8e shocks

Ok thanks guys, I'll check those numbers out. I don't think the plastic part screws onto the shaft, looks to be molded on. Anyhow, it appears that one would need to purchase the entire shock set.

RE: Redcat needs a PRO driver to race their trucks...

Yup, with the cost of sponsoring and marketing, has to be recouped somewhere, and the easiest is to jump each vehicle by x dollars. I agree with promoting the redcat name at local events, but are...
