Welcome to the EB4.4 Wiki page.
If you edit the page, please add your name and date prior to your addition. While an admin can view the history, this makes it easier for everyone to just check updates. We'll put the newest additions at the top.

Bob B 8/10/17 - Should I start with the kit setup?
The kit setup is a great place to start. One other option that many of us start with is Joe's rough track setup. You can find that setup here
In order to run it you need 3x2.1 pistons and 3x2.0 pistons. (They are marked on the sheet as 3.1 and 3.0).

Matt W 7/7/17 - What is overdrive and when should I use it?
The NB48.4 comes stock with a 12t pinion (TKR8152) and the 39t ring (TKR8151) in both the front and rear and the EB48.4 has a 12t pinion (TKR8152B) and the 40t ring (TKR8151B) in both the front and rear.

The two sets of gears are used to overdrive the front of the EBs or underdrive the rear of the NBs. If you have both vehicles and want to try underdrive it's as easy as swapping the front diff and pinion of the EB and the rear diff and pinion of the NB. Underdrive helps on very loose tracks, when you need more on power steering or if the rear of the car feels loose.

Tips and Tricks
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!

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:
GMK Supply Piston Drill Set
16PC Metric Bit Set Metric Sizes 2.00 to 3.00 MM.

Nobody knows, some say on christmas, some say on new year, some say on valentine's.

But honestly, i think they will fix the arm touching the ackermann screw issue before releasing the 2.0.

If u are on budget. XR8 Sct Pro combo is most value for money. If budget is not an issue, u can choose tekin combo or the all new maclan mmax8 combo.

Depends on the layout, if no tight corner 18t should do it. Other than that is 17t. Spur, theres only 44t.

Default Front right wheel rubbing shock

Noticed when car was on stand that when i turn then wheels left, the front of the right tires runs on the shock spring. When turning the other way, the left wheel does not contact the ledt spring. Epa’s seem to be fine and same in both sides. When car is at ride height no issue. Checked hinge pin and it is fine. Any thoughts?

doable, but very expensive, probably cheaper to buy a used EB48.4 roller, keep/swap the parts that are in better condition and then sell your NB48.4 roller, which might have you close to breaking even on total cost

TEKNO offers full support of all their legacy vehicles here:

Keep in mind the .4 is 2 generations old, perfectly fine for a sportsman driver just starting out, but if you want to be competitive then the 2.1 will be worth the upgrade.
