Welcome to the SCT410.3 Wiki!

7.26.17 - BB
In order to run the recommended team setup, you need the following optional parts:
TKR6106 Orange LF Springs
TKR6114 Green LF Springs
TKR6018 composite shock caps (built to emulsion) OR TKR8702 Aluminum Emulsion Shock caps
TKR8027 Shock Stand Offs
TKR6051 8x1.3 pistons(drilled to 1.4mm)
TKR8104 .4 bellcranks
TKR8100 .4 ackerman
TKR5545B HRC Hubs
You also need the Aluminum C Block (others can stay composite)

What option parts should I consider buying with a new kit?
None are required but we recommend the following:

TKR5161 – V2 Adjustable Hinge Pin Brace “A” block, 7075 CNC, EB/NB/ET/NT/SCT) - Helps to improve durability on hard crashes.

TKR5545B – HRC Rear Hubs (L/R, CV or uni, SCT.3/SL) - Improves stability of the rear on mid to corner exit. Allows harder acceleration on corner exit.

TKR6146 - CNC Delrin Shock Cartridge Set

TiNi Shock Shafts
-TKR6004T (front)
-TKR6017T (rear)


What spare parts should I keep on hand?
TKR5020 – Hinge Pins (inner, front/rear)
TKR5516 – Front Suspension Arms and TKR5515 – Rear Suspension Arms
TKR5542 – Spindle Carriers - TKR5541B Spindles
TKR6009 – Shock O-Ring and Bladder Set (for 2 shocks)

Tips and Tricks

List of Vehicle Setup Adjustments and Build Tips can be found here. There are several videos and articles detailing the building of shocks, diffs, camber links, etc.

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.




Hinge Pin Insert Chart:

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!

Some of our setups recommend using pistons that are enlarged. For instance 4x1.9 or 3x2.0. To drill the pistons we recommend the following:
GMK Supply Piston Drill Set
16PC Metric Bit Set Metric Sizes 2.00 to 3.00 MM.

.. if i upgrade towers, arms, hubs and spindles on my v1 do the links need to be changed as well or are the links the same v1 & v3 ?
I have not used them yet. I run Fioroni pistons in my .1 though.

I think somewhere else in this thread someone put the Lunsford 410 links and EB ends (same as SCT410) on his kid's .3 for more durability.

Can anyone confirm if the lunsford Ti kit for the SCT410 is a drop-in for the .3?

You need the SCT410 rod ends, the .3 are smaller diameter links and ends. To make it exactly like the .3 you would probably want to get these

http://www.teknorc.com/shop/tkr5187-...nbetnt48-8pcs/

and the bent ones

http://www.teknorc.com/shop/tkr5051-...er-links-8pcs/

since the .3 has a couple of those on the camber links.

The steering links and ends are the same between the two.

I had no issues on building the kit. My only recommendation is to use a reamer to open up the rod end holes to get the rods started easier. A little black grease or chapstick will make it easier to adjust them later as well.

Other than that it's a great build.

A 4mm reamer will come in handy to make sure there's no binding of the arms. I didn't have the issue on my first one, but many did. I did have that issue here through.

I also use a drill/power driver to start the screws threaded for the diffs, and other long screws, just make sure if using a drill the clutch is VERY weak so you don't strip out the hole. Do this before assembling any of the diffs. It'd suck to realize it after you have oil in, and trying to assemble.

I also use the drill on the camber & steering links, just pay attention to the thread direction. a little grease helps in the hole.

The kit springs are green frt, black rear. There should be a little bit of green paint on one end or the other of the frt springs.

So run the screws first before you even put any parts on the diff and then take them out an put together ?
Thanks

Built shocks to kit specs as emulsion. Ran for the first time yesterday and noticed the rear is slapping on take off from our biggest jump. Ride height was put to 28mm rear. When going over rough portions of the track, you can see the rear not rebounding fast enough to stay in contact.

I'm thinking i should build rear as sealed bladder type with 50% rebound built in. What do you guys think?
