Default Tekno SCT410SL

People talked about the new SCT410, but I was thinking a revision to the SCT410.3, not an EB410 based truck!

Ok, haven't read the Tekno stuff yet, but the SCT 410.3 was based on their earlier 1/8th scale E-Buggy, now they try to base one on a 1/10th scale buggy? Weird. Trying to shed some weight?

I'd say more on the ET than the EB though the buggy and truggy may share more parts than I realize. I'm not sure what they are trying to accomplish. They already own the 4x4 SCT. I do think it would be fun to be a SCT late model body on it and go run it on a dirt oval.

I wouldn't be surprised its to standardize the parts they have to use to make the vehicle. Other than the actual SCT410.3, I don't think there is anything else that is using those parts like the a-arms etc?

I won't be swapping, we race 4WD SCT at our 1/8 outdoor track. I am not really looking for anything lighter or less durable on that size track.

I am sure the indoor, carpet and 1/10 track guys will however be impressed.

I bet it is a et410.2, with a longer chassis and different body mounts and bumpers. It should share 95% with the eb410.2 and et410.2. It will be a lot light lighter then the sct410.3. This is what we did with the Cobra chassis, then later with Prostar. Prostar stuff should be better. But with official body mounts, that is cool. Took them long enough.

They need to do something about that rear bumper though!

What rear bumper? Looks more like a push bar on a midget.

I used to race the original release of the SCT410 as well as the.3 version up until a couple years ago when the 1/10 program died off in my area. My biggest gripe was cooking my 2S electronics due to the excessive weight:

I would eventually convert to 4S with a 3660-1800KV motor to solve my issues and would actually complete a 20 min main mixed with nitros:

I am very happy to see a reasonably durable 1/10 based platform that can truly support 2S and still be competitive, if the class comes back locally, I just might re-join it again with the SL


I'm also considering a conversion of a PR mini truggy to SCT which is a considerably more durable (and equally competitive) platform based on my experience with both brands.

yeah it is pretty cool to see them at least still soldiering on with the class, even if its probably a minor conversion to make this. I'd be curious to see what 2wd versions of this people may come up with as well.

Yep, just an ET410 with a few different parts.

How can you even call 13mm shocks "big bore"?

looking this over a bit more, and how its lighter and all brings back some memories of my lighter 4x4 SCT from Team durango, the one before the DESC10. Once had that chassis to use a larger capacity parallel shorty setup was pretty nice.

I want to know where I can get a set of those wheels!
What brand are they?
They look like the old HPI Blitz SCT wheels.

Yeah, especially since the original SCT410s shipped with 16mm pistons. I guess with AE pretending 12mm->13mm is revolutionary in their new 1/10th kits... Tekno wants to get in on the hotness-of-13 action?

Thanks Tekno, for setting me straight on path of righteousness. Having tossed and turned about getting a PR Racing's SB401R-T to compliment my ET410/love for mini truggy platforms, then the news of the SCT410SL hits the airwaves... I now know the direction I need to go for my mini truggy/SCT fun. Being able to share parts between a couple of ET410 mini truggies, and a SCT410SL means a lot to me.
