I hope the best for Tekno and maybe one day I will get one but please dont hate on the founders.
Well said!

Question for tekno: I noticed in the online SCT manual that on page two it lists SCT410X as the model. Is there any significance to that? Is this another model that will come out?

@powerskull
Just to follow up on what somebody else said and you mentioned not knowing about. The SCTE was a conversion from the 810.

@Tekno
"are we there yet?" O:-)

@all
I can't wait to see everybody on the track with this. I'll be starting a series with my SCTE (which hasn't sold yet locally), but finishing with the SCT410.

I jumped ship and sold my scte because of reliability issues. Lets face it, realisticly the car needs to be completely rebuilt with new parts bumper to bumper every 5 months or so. Each rebuild would set me back at least 100 bucks. Fast car absolutely, but it is very far from being a truely solid car.

wow. 17mm hexes included in the kit? sweeeeet.

Sorry, the 17mm hexes (SCT width) are a forthcoming option part. We are still testing them, but they should be out soon after the release of the truck. They will be inexpensive ($9.99).

We will also have some 17mm adapters (aluminum, 1/8th buggy width) available a couple months after release. This will enable you to have a true 1/8th buggy dimension vehicle with the weight savings of the SCT410 parts. 1/8th Lite class anyone?

I think that is an old logo file. We were thinking of calling the truck SCT410X. Not sure how that got in there. Zac, any ideas?

If we do make a 'Team' kit of some sort however, 'X' might be used since we've done that in the past with some of our option parts. But we might call it something else. We'll see.

I've seen mentioned over on the rx8 thread that there are tracks that restrict 1/8 ebugs to 2s but open motor. The wide, light, sct would be incredible for those guys!

Now that I think about it, I run on a fairly small indoor track. The 4s ebugs are less than 1 second faster than the 2s 4wd sct's. This might be an option for me as well. 3s on a pro4 3300 in a light weight ebug sounds terribly interesting!

Same experience I had. And even the amount of money to make it reliable. It nickel ed and dimed me to death with all the upgrade option parts.

+1 that was the main selling point of mine. I had to put so many upgrades on it, it was getting too expensive. Tried saying that on the scte thread and they still won't admit it needs all these things added to it.

I have to say I really like that the tekno 1/8 buggy and Sct share same parts and design. That's a plus for sure! I have looked into them some more and they peak my interest. They look solid. Can't wait to see what they can do but will hold off awhile. I had a sc104x4 also and it took me an hour to tighten the servo arm when it got loose
I really would love to see a Mugen sct also
