EB48SL

[John Daniel]

My boys stole both EB48.4s. I want to beat them at the outdoor track with my SCT. Will the conversion help?

 

[Billl DeLong]

Yes, without the negative effects of parachuting from a SCT body and added benefit of rear wing to increase down force to get more rear traction, you will level the playing field significantly! Not really necessary to change anything other than body mounts and rear wing, you can keep running the same SCT wheels/arms/shafts

Thanks Bill!

What motor would be ideal? A 3360 2000kv? Would a castle 1415 be too much on 4s?

 

[Billl DeLong]

I would recommend a 3660-2500KV on 3S, you don't want any larger can than a 3660, otherwise you will risk too much torque for the SCT axles.

here's my current setup:

Get these https://www.teknorc.com/shop/tkr5570-17-17mm-hub-adapter-set-sct410-18-buggy-width-2pcs/ and you can run buggy wheels. Then it's really an SL buggy.

Will the buggy wheels help performance?

With those adapters I linked to, they will increase your track width. A wider track width will make the car more stable. You won't have to worry about snapping little set axles either.

You could run the SL on 4s with those adapters as well. I ran the SL on 4s with a 2200kv castle motor and didnt have any problems other than having too much power for my needs.
