They actually do have all this info on their site in the same spot you find the manual. Just click on "resources/info". They provide all this extra info for all of their platforms in the same way.

When you click on that link it takes you to a page with all sorts of extra info and suggestions for electronics.

Again, that is great but I did not know to look under the resources tab. I looked in the manual, like I did with the ET manual. The ET manual had the info I needed, the EB did not. We are just asking to put the info in plain sight w/o having to search for it, I don't think it is that big of a deal.

ET410 manual:


EB410.2

Totally get where you’re coming from; I do research my kits. I have several kits still in the box from years; for me its near impossible to keep up, with what wheels works with what, so I keep them all together with that specific vehicle. As for the EB410.2, I picked up the kit in November, before thanksgiving & only had the timely opportunity to build it last Monday; first Tekno kit, probably not my last; its awesome.

I know the wheel info is all over the internet, thats if you are looking for it, I wasn’t, because I accepted info from LHS, regardless of accurate info or not, I would be in another situation in store if the wheels were not available, in which this would likely have been the the case, because they have EB410.2’s in stock, no wheels, & even if I showed up on to the track Sunday with no wheels, I would have ended up either leaving with AE wheels & carpet tires or no wheels at all, & the shop didn’t even have the +1 offset hub needed, only other option is 90 min away. I don't think anyone especially Tekno RC can be @ fault for this, it can really be just another supply demand issue, seen worse with RC kits, but that was like 30 years ago.

Its like saying it doesn’t help the the RC hobby when drivers clean out a shop of tires & wheels because of a big race, instead of planning ahead & ordering online.

So it really wouldn’t matter if I opened the kit box 2 months or 2 years later the issue is still convoluted, & by Tekno not including specific required wheels for their kit only adds that perfect unnecessary layer of RC wheel scavenger hunt to the hobby. Doesnt matter the hot new ”hypetrain” kit, for me from now on, I’m only buying RC kits that include specific sensible parts, like wheels.

Yeppers... agree 100% that Tekno should include the wheels with the kit... as long as the are a nice mauve color.. or a cool fuchsia color would be nice...

I was thinking tie dye myself, maybe glow in the dark.........

hoping to see a trend of vehicles coming with wheels again, I think Losi is doing that with theirs, and the new LC looks to include them it appears as well.

PR Racing ships with wheels in their kits too!

They used to come with yellow wheels but noticed they switched to white lately, which is kind of nice to have the option to dye any color you want

Tekno doesn’t make wheels so......... the info is not hard to find

Agreed and they are also one of the cheapest kits that everyone is comparing them too....Tekno not including wheels is probably one of the $ savers that was incorporated into the kit. I am not surprised they do not include wheels in the kits.

What is everyone's opinion on this buggy for 13.5 spec class on indoor carpet/turf? Will this buggy run competitive out of the box or would I be looking into some upgrades right off the break to make it more spec worthy?

Is kit setup on 410.2 any good on med/high bight clay?

Yes. That is what I run on at IRCR. I've only had it out once so far but it performed fantastic.

I am running 13.5 on carpet & compared with some other 2019-20 4WD buggies I have built & raced, I really think its very good OTB, & I can personally say the best as long as you have the right wheels. Only had a few days, ran again today, still dialed. I don't know about upgrades unless something breaks or isn’t doing what it needs to. I think its already spec worthy.

I run a different brand now, Yokomo, but having seen another driver who is good run the car, it looks good out there, better than the EB410.1 was out of the box on carpet here. I think the only mod he had initially was the aluminum shock caps, and I think that was because he had them from his old car.

Yes! Coming from an AE car I looked all over for some good setup info. Didn't really find much and I think the reason is the box setup is really good. I added front +1mm hexes because I run AE wheels. Other than that completely box stock and doing very well with it on high bite clay.
