I don't run a tekin but I would think you can shim it up a little to keep it from moving.

I'm running a 2250kv

2mm is fine, the bearings are a slip fit on the shaft so thats where the movement is, anyway upon heating of the rotor it will expand around 1mm anyway, you dont want to preload the bearings, there not designed to take thrust very well:whip:

This morning i was driving on our local track and suddenly my car starts to stutter under acceleration. (11 Lipo Pack's for so Far)

After a check of the settings with hotwire a went to the Track again and hit the Throttle. I heared my motor turning but my Car wasn't moving at all.:surprised: I think the magnets has come loose from the Rotor:no:

Team Tekin....HELP ME!

I going to sent a mail to support service

Defcon 06.27.2009 01:16 PM

My magnets let go as well. Called last Monday, got the new rotor Friday as promised and so far so good. Give them a call or e-mail your info and they will replace it. Very friendly service.

I'm on #4.... #1 and #3 lasted 20+ packs, #2 made it 1/2 a lap:cry:

big greg 06.28.2009 09:43 PM

BrushlessRacer 06.29.2009 08:56 AM

got my 1700kv rx8 combo back from tekin yesterday.....put it back in my rc8t and went to the track....now....i put all of the original settings back on and had it geared 16/46 (my original gearing as well) and this thing was out of control :) !!!!! i think tekin fed my rx8 combo steroids when they were nursing it back to health!!!!....whatever they did it takes off like a rocket now...not sure what changed but i'm happy with it!!!!!!!!

BrushlessRacer 07.01.2009 11:17 AM

are you shure you get a 1700 not a 2250?:lol:

hootie7159 07.01.2009 04:56 PM

Well the sticker still says it's a 1700...lol

Kajman 07.02.2009 03:47 AM

Apart from motors, are there any issues with esc's?

BrushlessRacer 07.02.2009 04:20 PM

No issues for me till now....

Appart from my loose magnets i'm very pleased with the system.

(Temperary driving RX8 with a 1600-36-60 medusa motor. Not the smoothest comparing to sensored but still power enough till a get my 2250 back)

Kajman 07.02.2009 04:30 PM

why not smooth? how smooth comparing to mgm or maybe mmm?

big greg 07.02.2009 05:08 PM

medusa's just arent very smooth on any controller, but my MMM 1y and MMM t8 2250 feels just as smooth as the tekin
