Welcome to the SCT410.3 Wiki!

Use steering stops/limiter washers... more info here.

Setup Sheets:
Setup sheets for all Tekno RC vehicles can be found here. Please be sure to try our recommended setup. It works very well on most tracks.

Warranty Policy:
Tekno RC is the only company in the industry that will give 50% off of parts if returned to them using the General Warranty return policy found on their website. The parts can be lightly used or completely abused, as long as the part is still being produced it's covered!

most likely he means shock oil. Running PT Racing oil here shoudl be interesting to see what the conversion will be.

As for springs, I personally may give these Xrays I have here a try if they fit. Ran those on my DESC10 I had and they worked excellent for it on carpet and outdoors, and they are really short too.

Glad to see you back running Tekno Cain.

yeah I figured either maintaining 2 custom vehicles if my daughter really likes RC or 2 vehicles that I know I can easily do that for.

To add to that, you also get some tower cash still at this time. I am hoping mine tekno comes in before it ends so anything else I need I'll just pick up.

From what you guys are seeing, how does PT Racing versus AE versus Losi compare for Diff fluid weights? I use AE mainly as they had more cst types available, and PT Racing for my shocks.

I use PT in everything. Makes it easier to compare apples to apples of what everyone else is running.

unfortunately the oil weights don't go high enough from what I am seeing on fierce rc solutions site so I end up keeping it at least in the family with AE oils for the diffs.

PT goes up to 25,000 on the diffs which should be sufficient for anything other than maybe center diffs on 4wd buggies.

7/7/5 still pretty common on medium grip? About to start building my 410.3 that my wife got me last Christmas (I've been kinda busy).

I'm still getting holes punched in the centers of my shock bladders even after screwing the rod ends on all the way. I'm going to dremmel off the end of the rod where the nut goes to hold the disk on. Hope this does it. I depleted my local track's supply of bladders.

Thats very odd. I've owned 5 410 sct's .3 and original, eb's, et's, never had a hole poked in a bladder? There has to be something messed up in the way the shock is put together. Have you looked at the stack of orings and spacers in the lower shock body? I'd bet there is something wrong there.

Is it just fronts or rears?? If so maybe the shafts are in the wrong bodies (rear shafts in front bodies?)

You should not have to dremel anything.
