I've got my EB down tow about 6.1 lbs and I've done the following
trimmed side guards quite a bit
2s lipo
540 4 pole (xerun 4700)
Aluminum center driveshaft
Trimmed mech brake posts off of motor mount and diff suport
plastic shock cartridge cap
aluminum screws everywhere
minimal wiring
removed droop screws
The only options I had to add so far were the aluminum center driveshaft. I'm going to try the composite hing pin braces and a shorty 2s pack as well. I'm not sure what else I can do to get down to 5.7

I'm thinking one of those castle 2400 motors and a 3s might be the way to go for those club race nights...

Initially with the car completly stock I was running a Tekin 1900 and a 3000 mah 4s. I would only use about 1800mah for a race with that setup. Our races are usually 5 minutes long. It was right at 7lbs like that.

LOL if you think the MIP kit is just eye candy, you definitely have never driven an SCTE with that kit, and have questionable taste in what looks good. The MIP kit reduces weight, moves what's left lower and to the rear for ~50/50 weight distribution, and includes shock pistons that you can tune compression separately from rebound. It even moves the center diff rearward, so you run the front driveshaft in the rear, and vice-versa. Personally I think the white chassis looks ugly, but it's worth it for the performance gain.
One good side-effect...it makes you not want to wreck ever, because when you put it on it's lid, it's like...hey look at me, my chassis is bright white and I'm upside-down!

I may pick this up to run on the bigger outdoor 1/8 scale style tracks.

People are really trying to cut weight! This year when i ran sct i was adding weight! I would suggest getting the truck dialed! Complete a few races without any wrecks and then make some weight adjustments if u feel u need too! My eb48 runs super cool and easily makes a 10 minute main with a cheap turnigy battery!

Hi Tekno guys,
what would be the internal ratio for the SCT410 ?
4:1 like the EB48 as it looks like both of them use the same spur and the same diff pinion ?

I'm really intrigued by this Tekno SC410. I love the EB48 diffs being used. Curious from the guys driving the test trucks how power consumption/efficiency seems to compare with other model SC4X's

2 of the 3 fastest trucks, both losis, couldn't make 10min. on the track last weekend.
How many MAHs in that Turnigy battery?
