Tekno RC ET410 Thread
#166
Being that the ET410 is based off of the EB410 chassis, I've never owned a 1/10 4wd buggy to know what they feel like driving. Short wheelbases, and long arms...the nimbleness of lightweight 2wd stadium trucks is what I love about ST platforms. I'm hoping the ET410 has some stadium truck characteristics, and feeling. I can't wait to try one out. I will admit though, I'll be looking at fitting a semi cab forward ST body on the ET410.

1/10 scale buggy/sct is the most popular in our track. But all I own is 1/8th scale and larger. I’ve been hesitant to get into 1/10th scale even if it’s the most popular class by far.
The Tekno ET48.3 truggy is the easiest to drive car I have in my collection. It’s so silky smooth over the bumps and jumps. So stable around the corners. If the ET410 is a scaled down version of the ET48, Tekno will definitely have a winner without a doubt.

Looks like they’re about to run at SDRC tonight, mini-truggy class, just not sure if Boss Travis will have the video streaming on at SDRC Raceway :: Broadcast and Results :: LiveRC.

So which of these would you guys go with and why? I know Matt gave his input on what those guys were running. I just can't decide so I was wanting to see what you guys were going to use and why. Thanks.

Hey Matt,
I see the recommended SCT wheels for the ET410 are for the Traxxas Slash offset... long story short, I'm currently boycotting Traxxas and would also like to re-use the same wheels that I already have mounted for my SCT410 if possible... are there any plans to make a hex adapter (possibly new axle?) to support zero offset SCT wheels?
Normally I'd run ST wheels, I'm currently running an XT2'17 with T4 wheels anyway, but ProLine doesn't currently sell Pin Points (or Pyramids) for ST and PinPoints are doing extremely well for my SCT with average wear of about 1 year of racing before the tires wear at the turf track in my area. In contrast I only get about 6-8 race days on a set of Prisms for ST.
If I do go with Slash compatible wheels, they will definitely be sourced from an aftermarket company, but it would be nice to share the same wheels with my SCT410 to help save space in my pit box

It appears to use standard 2.2 St shoes, and Matt has stated he is liking standard 2 pole motors right now. I'm sure we will get many details and updates when the kit is fully released. Needless to say I'll have a fleet of these. I'll be the guy to show up with 4 to race and anyone with a spare receiver can stick one in and we can start the movement! (;
