Losi Ten-T Conversion

What this guy said.

Revo hexes fit well but grind down the lip. Also, don't just grind down and throw on... Try and keep test fitting. Grinding off too much will cause there to be slop (found this out the hard way... Fortunately I had a spare kicking around from something).

As for the wheels/tires... The truck rips like it's on rails which is nice in a way but unfortunately requires a bit of a learning curve considering i've never had anything that drove like this. If you bash with your Ten-T, Badlands are nice, if you stick to track, get something else.

I also put strips of velcro on the top/side/outside of the chassis and bottom of the body and leave the body clips at home. You can see in the pic through the tuned pipe cutout where the blue velcro goes across. The velcro holds the body very nice... down with body clips!

Here's a somewhat interesting question. How do you guys set your servo savers? What's strong enough... what isn't? Other than trial and error 50 thousand times... Is there a good rule of thumb to use to make sure there's enough tension (or not too much)?

thanks.

I'm pretty happy with how mine came stock...

Sorry, should have included more information. I took my front end apart to borrow the parts to a customer when I was waiting for the brushless kit to be manufactured... When I put everything together, I set the steering servo much too loose. I think i've set it at a nice point, however on my next crash, i'll know for sure...

Now i'm having interesting problems with calibrating my DX3S to the MMM esc. Steering works, beeping on the MMM but no calibration. I reset the TX to zero settings and the ESC still won't calibrate for throttle/brake. Gives me the red light which I believe means my throttle/brake endpoints aren't set to zero, or there's brake/throttle being input.

I've bound/calibrated a buddy's DX3s and even a cheap Losi 2.4ghz transmitter... But for some reason mine won't work... Thoughts?

Your end points sholdnt be set to zero.Turn on your DX3S and hit model reset.Then try again. As far as the start-up i have all of mine set to the default 1.5 sec.And also my servo saver adjustment "factory" is 3/16" from the chassis to the bottom of the adj. nut. Hope this helps.

Sorry, again I should have thought about what I said. I meant that I "zero'd" the settings back to factory by resetting the model. I guess I didn't realize that most of the settings should have some sort of value, whether it be % or trims, etc.

As for the servo saver tip, greatly appreciated. I tightened it up pretty good but think I still have a little ways to go with the servo saver.

I like that this forum is full of good hands on knowledge, not people spewing information they were told by "a buddy of a friend"... I look forward to passing on some of my knowledge, however my history is in nitro engines and I feel that topic doesn't come up very often around here... (which is good :))

On your castle link, there's a setting for start up time or something like that (can't remember the name). set this for a longer amount of time.

Set it for 4 seconds (other models are 1.5 - LST/SC8)... same thing. This is baffling me. Usually i'm able to troubleshoot through this sort of stuff but i'm now... Baffled?

haha.

It's a Losi, what else would you expect but junk? Seriously though, don't take this to personally, you being the only one I have read about having so many problems with the ten-t leads me to beleive its something with your setup or something that you are or are not doing.
