Tekno RC SCT410.3 Thread
#1246
I see a lot are changing springs. Is the stock setup that far off? I'm fixing to build a new 410.3 for a buddy and want a decent starting point for him. I read about the stock springs not allowing for proper ride height. I was planning on compressing the springs overnight before assembly to allow them to be softer than stock. Any tips?

If I go with pink springs front and rear with the stock pistons what would be a good shock oil setup to start with? 35/30?

Theres a bit more to it than that. Its more about matching the pistons to the oil to the track. You need to look at piston surface area. The more area, the more pack.

I would use the 6x1.5 on bumpy and/or low grip tracks (maybe the 6x1.6) and the 10x1,2 on smooth and/or high grip tracks.

I would expect that the 10x1.2 pistons have more pack than the 6x1.5. Nearly the same free area and smaller holes => higher velocity of the fluid at same velocity of the piston => more pack. Am i wrong?

I'd give them a rebuild. should be smoother now.
Hey, does anyone know of a company that makes heatshrink tubing in the colors that tekno uses for spring designation? Got some truggy springs here and tekno's method of putting paint on the springs is hard for me to see at times since they are silver and it rubs off too. wouldn't mind using tubing instead like AE on the 1/10 stuff and Durango do for quick identification.

Ok so I am looking at purchasing one of these as I currently have a pro4 enduro that I was given to get into the class. I had a few questions though, Would a castle 540 3800 4 pole 1410 motor and sct esc be enough power for this car? I saw the gearing chart and it said this Kv but I didn't know if it was for a 550. Also what servo would you recommend for it? I am looking for something On the cheaper side. Also would (with the aforementioned combo) a 5500 mah battery last 10 minutes? Lastly are there any problem areas with this car? This part may have been mentioned already but I did not see it.
Thanks

I'm running the Hobby wing Xerun SCT combo right now and I started having problems with the truck shutting down halfway in the race. I lowered the max voltage to setting 1 and it's still doing it. I just bought a Castle BEC to see if that will fix it, but been too wet lately. I ordered a RX8 Gen 2, I will try that.

anyone using a staggered piston setup on this vehicle? (8 x 1.2 front / 8 x 1.3 rear for example)
Also, I heard a rumor about a special tekno clamping wrench with spots for 17mm and 12mm hex, ball ends, and shock shafts? Anyone heard of this?
