Dude just cancel it and let Amain get it to the next person in line

If no one wants it I'll just keeping for spares. Not like I was trying to make a profit.

I sold my Bump edition the end of Nov. for $325.00 in antisipation of the release of the Tekno. So I have not driven a SC for a long time. I figured if I waited till now to sell it, I would have the same problem you are having. Good Luck with your sale.............

I called Amain and mine was showing ready as well. I was told the emails would not go out until tomorrow. Best to look at your backorder under your account.

Something not right when backorders placed 12/16 are shipping out before those placed on 11/26! And true, most of their customer service reps don't have a clue. Awesome for those of you who have their's on the way.

My buddy just checked and his has shipped out from Tower today. (Coming. from the Reno warehouse) he ordered the same day I did. Check your back order Cain it may have updated to processing...

lol. Mine still says the same thing. maybe it is because I am in ND but yeah, it sucks to see orders placed after yours getting filled.

did get some good news though, got basically 4 nice motors motors and 2 high end speed controls for $21. So, its been a good day so far lol.

Crazy mine said processing in warehouse also and I was invoiced but didn't get an e-mail. They are in Illinois and Nevada I believe

Woohoo! I made the cut at Amain. It should be in my hands Friday.

Got the shipping confirmation so i'm officially one lucky SOB. Ordered today, shipped today, arrives Friday :)

Sorry for scooping the others, but i'm feeling redemption for being one of the first to order yet not having one yet.

Plus I already sold my SCTE, my buggy is down for parts, and I plugged the battery in backwards in the savage xs impulse buy from Saturday (now gifted to a friend), so I literally have nothing to even bash on the track right now, let alone race.

We've heard this before and the explanation is simple. Our vehicles (SCT410 and the EB48) have more steering angle than any car out there (we measured), so they steer like crazy. For people that want less steering, it's a simple dual rate adjustment on the radio (i.e. turn the total amount of steering throw down a little). You can also add a little expo to the steering channel to tone down the steering sensitivity around zero. I personally run -40 expo on my MT4 and 90% dual rate on the steering channel.

Pro drivers want as much steering as possible since they can navigate the track so well and hit every line. You can see how close and how tight Barry is able to get to the corners on the track. And the main area where we think this truck will beat other trucks is the amount of corner speed it carries even when turning that tight.

Thanks Danny for help with radio tune. After your recommendation I improved half a second a lap. This truck is amazing. :nod:

After reading all of the posts today and seeing how excited everyone is, we just want to say thanks to everyone for supporting us and for being as excited as we are. Watching people come down from the driver's stand with a smile on their face is really special. Having fun is what it's all about :). Thanks.

looking forward to some reports of this against people competitively racing the Prolite (I know, its not marketed as such) on indoor tracks.

Outtacontrol58 01-15-2013 09:14 PM
