I filmed the same race from a different spot.

Thanks for the links! Poor SCT had no chance keeping up with the Truggies at the hands of the pro drivers.

You’re welcome. Think the SCT driver was a different skill level than the others. The local with the orange/white ET was one of many that switched over from Pro4 once the EB410 came out. There were some pretty good battles between the SCT410s and Losi SCTEs.

Could you post a pic of the insides? I'm curious to see how much room is in there to work with.

Here is mine but it’s the exact same chassis layout as the EB410.

Got to race with Lutz this weekend. He pulled out his newly built et410 for a few laps. This thing is SICK.

I stopped by the local track yesterday and got to drive the track owners truck. They are a blast. One thing I noticed is that the truck behaved very similar to the EB410 when we built them at launch. If you let off the gas it gets very loose. Stay in the throttle, even just a little bit, and it's an animal. I can't wait to get mine in a few months

Oh and he had a Tekin 6.5t geared with a 15t pinion in case guys were wondering.

Cool thanks. Would there be a problem putting the receiver/transponder in any of the two locations where the red circles are? Futaba R204GF-E which is quite small.

Don’t see why not. I know thats an area where sometimes people will add weights. Just need to make sure it doesn’t upset balance. i’ve heard that area can get extra dirty running on loose dirt so you may need to add a little more protection for your electronics. At times, I’ve heard some having intereference issues when mounting transponders directly to metal chassis. I’ve seen some EB owners mock up some lexan for the chassis edges similar to the plastic up front.

I have a Reedy 8.5T Mach 2 laying around. Would this be enough motor for the ET410? I would be using a hobbywing V3.1 ESC with it.

I'm sure it would be fine. Just gear it appropriately and make sure you have a fan on it.. Guys are running anywhere from 10.5 to 4.5 (yes that's scary ) in them.
