This past weekend I had the unique opportunity to run Jeff Beck's EB48.2 at a three day event in Sarver, PA for the annual race against cancer.

I think Jeff is on rctech as cpt_RedBeard, so if you've seen his posts about the ins and outs about this vehicle, LISTEN TO THEM. His buggy is so easy to drive, it jumps flat, it lands soft and never gets a ton a chassis slap on landing like what i've experienced with the current chassis I run. His car rotates on command with only slight throttle input necessary.

Overall it was a fantastic preview of the car for me as I am currently in the market for a new 1/8th scale buggy. With the new mugen coming out soon, the new Losi hitting the shelves, the overall swarming (or slithering) of serpent buggies in my local area, i fully believe that the EB48.2 in the right hands can become the car to beat.

Jeff has been a big contributor to the knowledge-base of this vehicle and he is always willing to assist other drivers when they have questions about proper setup, or build questions, I hope he sees this post and can post his current setup sheet or some pointers on how to make your EB48.2 as dialed as his is.

I'll have a Tekno EB48.2 of my own soon after this previous weekend's rent-a-ride.

Update your shock shaft guides to the new ones. They are a bit thicker and keep the shaft from moving and damaging the shock shaft guides allowing it to leak part number (tkr6008)

My Tekno

Thanks buddy.

Hey guys, I figured since I trust the other tekno guys id ask you all this question. I'm doing indoor for the first time this year and deciding a 2wd e buggy. I like Schumacher cougar KR Cus its kinda like Tekno company small independent but everyone says tlr 22 2.0 but I feel like that's selling out but I also want a 2wd SC and losi had both.

Thoughts???

Hi,
This message is for Tekno RC :
Can you tell me if you can send me via PM, the e-mail address of your designer, or your designer office e-mail ?
As you maybee know, I will produce my own parts soon, and I'm actually drawing the EB48.2 parts.
I have seen a little problem with your differential design, so it just for your information, I just want to help you to improve to next batch...
I can explain the problem here, but I don't think it's a good idea to show the "secret" to the other brands...
Thanks
Bye !

Ummm.... Why don't you just pm tekno yourself because now it's like 3rd grade in here, you told everyone about a secret but won't tell anyone what it is.

Hi Graham,

Ummm too... because I had the experience with Team Associated : I send them e-mails, and because I have not any answer I don't know if somebody has already read my mails. I don't think my mails have been transmitted to the designer office, maybee because it was via the "customers" (general) address.
I'm just a little unknown designer, so I don't want to send Tekno a mail via the "general" address, because I don't know if they will really show it to the right "department" (design).
But I think Tekno is more professional than Associated, about it's customers service, then maybe you are right.
Bye !

I'm all for entrepreneurs go get em dude. I just think Danny will get the message faster if you pm him!

Hi Graham11,

Thank you very much. Do I have to understand that Danny is the person behind the official TEKNO surname, here on RCTECH ?
Thanks,
Bye !

Thats right. Dan is THE man. (the Tekno man...)

why do people not use the telephone anymore? geez

Hi jhautz,
Thank you, I wil try to contact him directly.
Hi Mullet1,
I can't use the phone, because my English is not fluent, I think I will frighten them !
Last update : Daniel sent me a message, then the problem is solved.
Thanks
Bye !

The way you are doing this is inappropriate.

Mate this is not the right way to do things.
You have an idea you contact tekno direct
Dont advertise on the threads this way it will slow sales for tekno
This is a great buggy remember
