Thanks man! I gotta go back in and fix a few things and probably switch out the electronics but it runs pretty well.

Default Rjohns Tekno U4/crawler

I'm going to switch over to a Monster X and castle sensored 1512 1800kv. I think the selectable drag brake would be perfect for this. While I'm in there I have to shim the diffs and I'm going to fully lock all 3. Bam!

So it appears Associated has the same idea(ish) as you...

Almost. Wish they did something else to it to separate it from the RC8. I guess it's just a typical rebodied current car just like all the manufactures do.

Wondering if they left the center diff in or locked it out? I like the cage design tho.


But holy smokes! How did I miss your conversion. That thing looks sweet and the cage work is perfect!

Great looking truck John! I've been peeking here for a couple months, hoping to find more pictures, info...maybe video
I've also had a Tekno sct410.3 sitting on the shelf for a while. I bought it for my son because he was getting in to racing at a local track. Then a few weeks after we got it all put together the track closed:(. So I made it into something fun!

Running Mamba Monster X and Gool 2000kv motor. 3s ...and carefully 4s. (On 4s it'll do an easy standing backflip on pavement)
This thing is fast and a blast! It jumps and lands better than any RC I've owned...it's so lightweight and smooth.

Awesome! Glad I'm not the only one to hack up a perfectly good Tekno!
