Tekno NB48
#316
Will do. Setup is somewhat different than the EB... hard to ignore what's working sometimes. Another question. I'm new to nitro...
When I mounted the center diff to the chassis, the brakes kept the diff from spinning. Should the break posts bottom out in the threads and the shoes will break in? I backed them off a little to get spin, but like I said when the diff is mounted they're too tight. Thanks.

looking at common consumable parts, I got some clutch Bearings handy for maintenance, glow plugs, but forgot about air-filters, will there be air-filters on the Tekno store or is their already an air-filter I can already get on the market? any other parts you would recommend to keep on hand?

So I just ordered my NB48 today....very excited...this will be my first nitro buggy! A couple questions....
1) I am planning on ordering TKR5253 – Aluminum Servo Horn for the steering. I assume the kit brings plastic horns. Right? Are there aluminum options for the throttle servo, or do these only come in plastic?
2) Are there any other specific NB48 parts that I should order? (Brake pads, air filters, etc)
3) Is there a link to the instruction manual somewhere? I would like to to start reading it ahead of time before my kit arrives. (I checked the Tekno Instruction manual link and there are none for the NB48).
4) What are the exact radio/servo battery specs? (size, hump, etc)
Thanks!

The NB48 and NT48 bells are different than our other bells. They are also compatible with any clutch bell made for the Losi 8. So if you have any laying around you already have a few spares.

2: The spare parts haven't arrived yet, but they will be here in the coming weeks. The NB48 has demonstrated excellent wear all around. Everything should last quite a while before needing to be replaced. Air filters, a spare fuel tank, maybe some center shafts - normal stuff you'd want on hand for a nitro. But again, we are very pleased with how durable the buggy turned out.
3: The NB48 manual has not been posted yet. We'll see if we can post it up by the end of the week.
4: During testing we used the ProTek RC 2600 lipo packs and the 1800 LiFe packs. We also made sure the box would accommodate a 5-cell standard hump pack. So pretty much any hump pack should work. The RX box is big enough for just about any receiver. We always had plenty of room in the box no matter what RX we used.
Please feel free to ask any other questions. Thanks!!

I'm a HUGE fan of the following rear skid and front bumper for my EB48. Was wondering if these would work with the NB48?

Is the chasis shape different? Are the front/rear chasis diff mounting screws in the same position? Thanks.
