I would run a 14t if I were you. I'm running a 15t with a 4400kv and my motor is getting hot. It was 186 today. Definitely start with a 14

Anyhow everything was fine and it eventually didn't stress me anymore as I got used to it. Just set your mesh by feel and ignore the sound all together with just a very slight amount of play as normal. It will wear in and quiet up a bit once you have ran it a few times.

Yeah I thought I could get around it to, but it ended up costing me a few races with the servo getting mushy near the end of the heat. I added a glitch buster and that helped a little, but it still struggled off and on. Just bypassing the red/black sero wires straight to the battery input and leaving the signal wire to the rx will be your best bet if you dont wAnna fool with the external deal. But it's upto you. You'll know if your standard bec can't handle it, cause what Im telling you will be obvious if it happens and your servo will perform poorly over all

It's a whole lot to learn and it never really stops, but your already on the right track being here on the forums. Don't be afraid to ask lots and lots of questions. If you don't understand something be sure to mention your experience level on the particular subjects so people won't be as short with the answers unintentionally.
Most of us generally love to help when we can. Speaking for myself personally, it's half the fun in it.
Also, it's cool that you choose such a quality kit like the tekno as one of your first. You didn't go wrong

When you mesh your gears, there needs to be a tiny bit of play between the pinion & spur. Or your motor will overheat. Once you set your mesh, rock the spur gear back & forth and it should move slightly. If your spur won't move ...its too tight. Remesh it

Okay so I'll probably buy Novaks set of 15, 16, 17 and 18, 19, 20.

with my SCT410.3 and Pro4 4300 HD I started at 15t on a medium sized outdoor track and found it to be under-geared. I now use an 18t pinion and feel it's perfect even for hot temps, was 100 degrees during our last race and after 6 minute races it was around 185ish, this is not too bad for a worst case scenario.

The Tekno Mod1 pinions fit REAL NICE and look nice too!
Some of the MOD1 pinions are just too long and they end up rubbing against the motor mount. I have a 15t and 16t pinions that look like they fit but rub under acceleration (you can see marks). Needless to say, I have those in my junk drawer now.

Anyone ever use novak pinions with the 410? I can get sets of 3 for $20.
I emailed tekno and he said to start with a 15T for a tighter indoor track and 16T for outdoor track

I feel that the issues are not the springs but the way the shocks are build and how far up the rod ends are tighten. Also check your ride height with the body on as well.
