Welcome to the EB410 Wiki page. Basic Stats/Features:
Videos Servo Horns Tekno included a plastic servo horn but also offers an aluminum one. This is highly recommended. Here's a list of servo horns that have been found to work:
Gearing: Works out of the box for mod or 13.5.
Wheels
Setup Sheets and other documentation Setup sheets for all Tekno RC vehicles can be found here. Please be sure to try our recommended setup. It works very well on most tracks.
Piston Drills: Some of our setups recommend using pistons that are enlarged. For instance 4x1.9 or 3x2.0. To drill the pistons we recommend the following:
Aftermarket Upgrades:
Warranty Policy: Tekno RC is the only company in the industry that will give 50% off of parts if returned to them using the General Warranty return policy found on their website. The parts can be lightly used or completely abused, as long as the part is still being produced it's covered! Build Tips:

The big thing with ordering from tower isn't speed its overall money savings. At this point with how it appears these will ship and miss the E-cash just barely unless something changes, may be worth just waiting till official in.

No nothing like that

The only time we broke the bulkhead (before revisions) in that area was when we landed upside down directly on the tower while the car was moving forward, or catching the underside of the drivers stand after jumping off the track.

Like Cain said, did you notice any air bubbles in the bulkhead? A " nose dive" landing should not cause such a break. Was the tower seated all the way onto the bulkhead? If not the tower won't have a lot of support and will flop on the bulkhead. Did you happen to overtighten the bottom 2 screws and strip them out? Or if the tower wasn't seated all the way the bottom 2 screws might have barely been engaged.

1st practice day on loose bumpy dirt went well. Running 6.5T motor. Started with kit setup except: no sway bar and left droop screws flush for max droop.
Tires: Holeshots in super soft front and rear. With open cell front and aka closed cell rear on tlr 22-4 wheels, Stock hexes.
Changes done in order:
- Ride height to 21 front to match 21 rear (same as my b64d) - not good. Nose high on jumps. Likes nose lower than rear. Back to 18mm front 21 rear.
- Reduced front toe out to 0.5 degree on each side vs. 1.5. Reduced front camber from -2 to -1. More stable but back end wanting to come around on power.
- Shortened wheelbase in rear. Moving both spacers to the back. A little more stable in the rear.
- changed rear toe to 2.5 (from 1.5). D block pills middle out on both sides. Again better still not great.
- Changed front diff oil from 15K to 10K and rear from 7K to 5K. Not as big of improvement as I expected but was better overall. Could drive harder without getting unstable in and out of turns.
- Added weight to rear with Protek stick on 5gram weights. 10gram I could feel the rear getting more settled and bouncing less over bumps. (Maintaining ride height with adjustments). Went to 25. Almost there. Went to 35 and was happy with the balance. Total rtr weight is now right at 1800g.
DAY 2 of testing. Only change was moving rear shocks to inside holes on arms. Helped with bumps.
SETUP SHEET POSTED WITH FINAL SETUP
In one day I was able to adjust the eb410 to be as fast as my b64d I have had all summer to tweak on. I still may try lighter rear shock oil as it isn't quite as stable over the bumps as the b64d with tall rear shocks and vrp valve pistons.
Well done tekno!

Big FYI to everyone, the pills are a little different on this car versus our others. A single dot is a half degree and the double dot is a quarter degree. So if you went to single dot out you're actually at 2 degrees of toe. There's a mistake on the setup sheet graphic (it was carried over from the 8th scale stuff.)
