And to report on the truggy, it ran great, felt good, and not a single issue. Out drives are fine also after 4 packs (23 total mins of runtime) plus another 10 mins of practice after racing.
I'm glad it's not everyone with these outdrive issues on the et48, sucks that I am one of them though LOL. Especially since tekno isn't actually taking care of the ones with the issues properly. It's def better for their business to not have too many upset w/ them for there general practice of 50% discount +shipping both ways for a part that shipped defective. I have not had any issues w/ the gearboxes yet either, hope they don't fail during an a-main or an important race. Guess it's just easier and cheaper to not figure out who was impacted and replace them and hope most just replace on their own w/o pushing for warranty service then if they do charge them for shipping both ways and make them go through the hassle of the return to the point of only saving a 2-4 bucks so they just say heck w/ it and buy one from a lhs works out good for tekno either way $$ wise "short term".
