Welcome to the EB410 Wiki page. Basic Stats/Features:
Videos Servo Horns Tekno included a plastic servo horn but also offers an aluminum one. This is highly recommended. Here's a list of servo horns that have been found to work:
Gearing: Works out of the box for mod or 13.5.
Wheels
Setup Sheets and other documentation 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.
Piston Drills: 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:
Aftermarket Upgrades:

Yesterday I had some carpet run with my car. The car runs real smoth. I also tested with 50 grams rear weight on the car and I really liked that.
A question about the diff. The stock setup (15k, 15k, 7k) and If I see on petitrc people run 60k oil in the center diff. If i compare to other brands like AE B65, Xray etc. They run 300k, 500k up to a 1mil. How come that the Tekno drivers don´t do that? I will test 500k this weekend on the car to see how It behaves out of corners and when landing After jumps.

I believe it was mentioned further back in this thread by Matt. These diffs are higher volume than other diffs in a typical 1/10th buggy and therefore you are able to run more fluid/thinner making them more consistent. it was mentioned that they saw no point in running a lower volume diff and then locking it up with super heavy diff oil. honestly I've not run much carpet so just going by what was said by Tekno.

The reason I asked is because a AE team driver looked at the car and had some thoughts about the diff when rotating the diff and Wheels. He said that if you run a while and the oil gets hot the diff will be even smother therefore you loose driveability on the carpet out of corners. So he recommended to test 500k up to 1mil to see how it behaves.
He was impressed about the layout of the car. I Think everyone that has looked at the car has really liked what they have seen.

I also saw Joe posted a new setup yesterday and he's currently running 30K on high traction clay:

I think I'm gonna put off my build for a few days until I get the RCSS titanium screws in. I realized I don't have any 2.5 titanium screws on hand for the diff so I figured I might as well do it right the first time

[QUOTE=billdelong;15068894]I noticed a remarkable improvement on turf when bumping up from 15K to 30K, but I'd like to think that 1M wouldn't be much different than running a spool where I found with the Exotek B64 spool the car felt snappier on corner exit but I was losing a little consistency in the chicanes. Not really sure if I need to go much higher than 30K but I might give 60K a try this weekend just for grins.

I have 60k in mine and it felt much better on high grip carpet than with the 15k. I will run a couople of more testing before going up to maybe 80-100k.
What about the shocks? I now run red springs in front and yellow back. Having the stock recommended oil but will also test a little bit harder oil like 700-725 in front. What oil do you members run indoor in these shocks?

Here's what the 60' x 100' track looks like to get an idea of the layout:

a friend at the track video taped my car with slow motion. it was my first outing on high traction carpet with the EB410. I was able to TQ, but made a bobble and came in third in the main. I'm usually in the middle of the pack with my D413.
I have since changed my diffs, but haven't had time to hit the track
I now have 20,300K,9. I will try 100K in the center if that combo did not work out.

I have been running 30,300K,14 and the rear inside wheel still lifts during mid-corner to corner exist. I did not notice it from the stand and I did not feel like a lost steering or speed.

To often we see top drivers running something new and talking like its the best thing since sliced bread only to find out that it's a handful for normal people. Well......Mason is a great driver that has spoke very highly of this buggy and has shown up at races locally and let a select few drive it but at the end of the day he is factory. Then last night happened with a borderline sportsman/expert driver in the 13.5 class. He is running a box stock buggy and gave me a run for my money. His buggy was stable and jumped and landed better than a Losi. Traction and steering seemed on point as well. If this buggy was that easy to drive and put it 2nd on the grid by that level of driver.......can you imagine what it will do for an expert driver? Tekno wasn't playing around with this project. Good thing Mason doesn't run 13.5 at LSR Speedway

First day out with the eb410. I was definately faster with it over my 22.4. Set track lap record by 2/10 sec. with a 13.5, which was held by a 1/8 ebuggy lite. Even faster than the mod 4wd buggy record by 4/10 sec. Stock setup except 20k/20k front center oil.
