No just plug one esc in at a time and program it like a castle esc

Plug power in wait 2 seconds pull full trigger hold tell it changes beeps pull full reverse hold tel beep changes release wait tell beep changes and then that esc is programmed then unplug and repeat on other esc .

One or both esc may need to be reversed if they don,t want to be programmed in the radio and or sometimes when you need to pull full throttle for forward do reverse and then when you are to program reverse pull forward throttle I thing the rear xr10 esc is programmed this way

Please check castle creations programming for there sidewinder esc for refrence

Just wanted to thank everyone for the help and give a little update.

Carbon fiber battery and electronics mounts are on and as of 10 minutes ago the carbon fiber servo mount is also in play. Hoping for the best going from a Hitec 7980 to a Futaba s9157. Hopefully the ofna horn will help in the mechanical advantage department. If not I'll be in the market for some steering arm extensions

[crawlinghulls]

Did a little tweaking of the steering arm setup. Is a little more direct, will find out Sunday (assuming the snow holds off) at the comp. Suggestions welcome

[crawlinghulls]

Ok rigged up Ti steering link

Probably shouldn't make all these changes but I can't help myself

[crawlinghulls]

Well the rig was great on the rocks, the one and only issue is the steering in the most extreme situations. for now I modded the short steering arm with a offset rod end. Testing will continue.

[crawlinghulls]

I must admit the rig ran superb at the last comp. I took an immediate rollover penalty on the second course and definitely driver error on course three but I'm still tweaking

Before and after ---- comment welcome

Those out boarded shocks should help with stability.

Truck looks great.

I've always wondered how would that work. Give back some info once you tried. I might have to do that as well.

got her on the rocks and must say she is very stable with the new rear shock geometry. I will need to run a little more spring tension/change shock oil but I'm digging it so far.

Also thinking of adding a tooth on each pinion from 14 to 15 for a little more wheel speed???

I run 15T and like it

[crawlinghulls]

I'm assuming the gearing is a little lower in the bully axles when compared to xr-10's. After initial testing I may bump one more to 16

[crawlinghulls]

16t pinions are in and working great. There is no noticeable difference on startup under load or bind conditions. Makes me think I could get away with 17's???? Gonna keep it like this for a bit before the 17's.

Do you run the size number of teeth front and rear?

right now 16's front and rear. I used to overdrive the front when I ran a Mantis chassis

[crawlinghulls]

First thoughts of this rear shock setup - great vertical climbing, but very unpredictable on off camber side hill transitions. this is with 45wt oil. I have 100 and 300 so I may go back to a more parallel shock setup

[Robbob]

60wt ....... or even 80 at that angle if its still floppy.

[crawlinghulls]

I don't have much experience with shock oils. Tried the 100 and 300wt almost made no difference. So..... had some 1000,2000,3000 Factory Team AE diff fluid...... tried the 1000wt and it actually feels about right. Will need to wait till tomorrow to test on the rocks

[chevotafun]

I run 35wt up front and 30wt in the rear.
run 14t front and rear

[crawlinghulls]

The 1000 felt alot like my old mantis chassis - likes things slow, super smooth but did not handle quick transitions well. So after the first test session I dug out the 100 and 300. And the winner is 100. I will be ordering some 90,80,70etc for testing soon.
