Thinking of pulling the trigger on one of these. FierceRCsolutions seems to have a good deal on Teknos and just added these to his site.

So far I've been pleased with his shipping and support. Bought 2 HW esc's and program box.

Anyone buy one of these, yet? Thoughts on the class?

I am assuming an aluminum servo horn? anything else?

That's about it. It comes with all of the other hop-ups. Springs and sway bars maybe.

So it comes with the suggested oils?

Tekno is in San Diego you know? Don't think you can get faster shipping or better support for California customers than direct from the company that makes the product!

Also, Falcon Sekido is USA distributor for HW products. They too are in Southern California and they too will have quicker shipping and better support than any shop seeing as they are the ones that the shops get product from.

Just FYI, seems funny to buy product from shop in Chicago that originated in CA and then ship it back to CA....

But whatever floats your boat!

Not paying sales tax floats my boat.

Hasn't that been Tower's business model for like 50 years at this point? :lol:

Edit: Speaking of Tower, backorder your ET48 now for the low, low price of $826.99.
(I know it will be significantly lower when the truck is actually available but still, wow)

This kit looks good! I may have too..... :)

True. But I get better prices and good support from FierceRC. I wanted to buy two HW ESC's, which could use the same program box without hassle. I emailed around and Fierce returned my email in about 15 minutes.

I've been doing this a while and sometimes customer support is not really the biggest issue, but it's really nice to have it when you need it. Responsiveness is also good and they ship fast.

And - Fierce had better prices than Falcon.

So an official dealer with good prices, great response and no sales taxes? Why would I go anywhere else?

glad to see tower at least has it on the site.

what I will be curious about is what price they officially go with and when its time to order, what coupons will be available.

I don't see it. Do you have a link?

skengines 12-18-2013 12:20 PM

Should be around 500.00 after coupons.

Already have one in my cart. :)
