Where are the setups? The Tekno site is great for everything BUT setups.

There is only 1 setup there now, but we will be adding more soon.

I'm loving the new FTW body. The lines are good, quality is good, function is good. I'll be running one soon.

Since there is a lack of setups posted right now.

This is the setup that I've settled on with the car after running it at several tracks in FL. I ran this same exact setup at AMS and at the ROAR Nationals. I find it to be very easy to drive, stable through rough sections, with plenty of steering. The only thing I'd say you might want to adjust is the brake bias to maybe 60% front.

I need to see it in person probably, I liked the pics of Matt Ws but then I saw the pics on ftw site I was like ehhhh haha, I really like the ftw eb48 body and the ftw xb9 body on my nb48, looks badass. Fresh paint for Keystone Classic 7/11-7/13 at MBRC in Kennett Square PA.

Speaking of, if anyone on East Coast wants to race guys like Phend and Lutz you should come to Keystone Classic, it's going to be epic, 3 days (first day is practice) with both 8th and 10th scale tracks, and every class you can think of, sign up on rcsignups or pm me for details

on the steering spindle, what does going from 4 washers on top to 1 on top change? It doesn't move the height of the pivot ball(atleast I dont think it does). Is it more so that the screw doesn't rub the arm?

Doesn't change anything except more threads of the screw will show. Just use a shorter screw if the threads bother you. But if you put 3 under the ball pivot and one on top. Then you are also affecting bump steer even though you can change that at the ackerman. Not sure if that is accurate.

Anyone know the difference between the ring gear or the NB TKR5302 and the one for the NT TKR5404?

Reason I ask is because in thinking of trying the rear Truggy pinion in the buggy. It should make the front overdrive the rear, which would make the front pull the rear.

The truggy ring gear, TKR5404 is closer to the pinion than the buggy ring gear, TKR5302.
You have to run the truggy ring and pinion as one set and the buggy ring and pinion as another set, they cannot be intermixed.

So you can overdrive the front if you run the truggy ring and pinion in the rear.

Has anyone tried it yet?

Not me-but was thinking about it. Mugen offers a rear "under-drive gear" (same as over-driving the front).
Could be a super sweet option!!!!

Anyone else having problems eating up clutch bell bearings in this car ?

I would like a honest opinion from someone who has switched from the Losi 3.0 to this buggy. Can you please give pros and cons. I do not dislike the 3.0 but parts wear out quickly and I know Tekno quality is great. Thanks.

I swap out clutch bearings every race day. Sometimes twice just depends. If I am just practicing I might go 1/2 gallon or so before changing them.

I saw some mention of there not being many setups. Here is what I am running now http://michaelsasher.com/wp-content/...RC_Factory.pdf
