I've also noticed the Losi has centre universals the Tekno has centre dogbones, does this create any issues? I know my Hyper 9e with a centre universal is a lot quieter than my son's Hyper 9e which still has the dogbone and it sounds like it's vibrating itself loose everytime we run it!

We had this issue on one truck in house (actually Danny's). Out of 25 trucks ive personally seen, this only happened with one.
Turned out it was a small tolerance issue on the motor mount. What I did was force the motor mount insert in the center diff motor mount a few times. It was best to do this with the center diff motor mount out of the truck.
I was then able to see where the anodizing wore off. This is where the manufacturing defect was. I then took a small file and took off about .1mm of material. I only took off a small amount of material at a time, so its best to file it a little, take a sharpie to blacken where it was filed then test fit it again. If the black mark from the sharpie wore off and was silver again, I filed a little more. Took about 10 minutes to fix it.
Hope this helps.

I don't run a BEC with the RX8 and DS1015 , the 1015 isn't quite as power hungry as some of those mega torque servos ......

Try running without the sensor cable. For some reason my lt4 had more power sensorless then sensored.
