Tekno RC SCT410.3 Thread

I ran a Castle MMP in my SCTE for 2 years with no issues running a Tekin 4000Kv 4 pole 540 motor. The Losi is almost as heavy as the Tekno. I'm not a huge fan of Castle products (chinsy quality and pathetic BEC's) but I think it will do in a pinch. Just remember, running these vehicles with no current limiting and wide open throttle usually results in higher temps, more wheel spin, and slower lap times. Being able to pass someone on the straight is totally useless if they return the favor and blow you away through the infield. Also, if the ESC fan quits working, it needs to be dealt with promptly. Running without the fan will cook the ESC pretty easily.

Got most of my SCT410.3 built over the weekend, how is everyone building their shocks? Recommended way is vented, I've never built shocks as vented or emulsion, just the traditional way w/the bladder.

I tried a castle sct combo and cooked the esc on the second track visit. Castle recommends it to be used in light scts only. The 3800 castle motor was not a good choice for a Tekno. I ended up going to a rx8 with a pro4 4600 and it was a massive difference. The tekin was more powerful all around and both esc and motor ran cooler than the castle setup did. The hobbywing sct pro and hobbywing 4000 is a awesome combo also that's cheaper than the Tekin.

I did vented but made it so i can use them as emulsion later on whe i want to try that style

Stupid question time: Are those clear fins mounted on top of the nerf bars part of the kit or something extra? What are they called?

The castle esc I used was straight factory settings. All I did was calibrate it to my spektrum radio. I geared it properly also and constantly kept a check on temps but the esc still croaked. Might have just been a defective unit from the factory IDK. Once I went hobbywing I never looked back. I use Hobbywing sct pro and xerun sensored 150A and rx8 escs with good luck so far.

Does anyone know how each of these effects the truck? I've built emulsion and bladder but never vented.

Need help please. I just got my kit the is the absolute first time building a rc in general. I'm at the front shock build but I made a mistake I was going for the vented build and drilled the vent for the top of the cap right but drilled the bleeder where it's supposed to be for the emulsion build. So my question is am I screwed or can I put the screw in and drill the other hole. If I can use that as my bleeder where do I find the oring for the bleeder screw. Also I saw a link somewhere of a step-by-step shock build for these could some one point me in the right direction please and thank you
