Amain has moved the date up to 10/23. If true.... the RSX is only a week away.



.....and STILL not a single word from Tekin about ETA. Good lookin' out for your loyal customers, Tekin!

tower has moved back their date to November for the esc only. Systems say late October still. I'm going to wait until tower has it so I can use the member discount.

Probably will be cheaper to get it from stormer , towers prices always seem high to me .

stormer says 199 where as tower and amain are 229, but if you are a tower member the price is the same as stormer. So, I usually will order some other parts that I need to bump up to the next discount and I save more.

You can't go off what the sites have listed for an ETA, they are guessing and will keep moving it back until they receive stock. Patience, grasshopper, it is coming. It performed excellent at Worlds and IIC last week. Team Drivers will start seeing them very soon.

Bummer got a 4x4 buggy I was looking to put a system in for the fall racing season. Had my Gen2 in it with a 13.5 but the other guys were running me over down the long straights.

Drop to a 7.5 motor.

Not with the gen2 RS. Motor limit is 8.5. You could get away with an 7.5 in a 2wd buggy but not 4wd.

I'm done with a dead car and the refusals to help us with a rough ETA. It's becoming clear the RSX won't be here until next year.

You've proven impatient on more than one occasion. We will not give a date until the units are packaged and shipping out, period. Nobody is refusing to hep you.

We're not willing to risk a date based on outside factors that are times, outside of our control. We can however share a date once we are actually shipping units out the door, which let's be honest is the entire point right?

We want everyone to enjoy the RSX as fast as we can.

I think his point is that 1-2 weeks notice is too short. Tekin does not want their feet held to the fire with a firm date. I was surprised when TLR said 4 weeks the buggy will be here and it actually happened. Most companies have issues and miss the estimated ship date.

My frustrations stem from Tekin leaving me without an esc for pong periods... twice now. RS pro stock was depleted long ago. I would gladly buy one today if I could. I love tekin, want to run tekin, but am stuck with a dead car and no racing all because i want to stay with tekin. Is this being viewed as a legitimate problem within the company and what exactly is wrong with saying "We are trying for a _____ date". No product, no help, no eta, no running car.... is becoming routine.
