I'm not surprised Tekin pulled the Mt off the site. Right now they cant even keep the new RS in stock anywhere. Its a double edged sword, hi demand, low production numbers. I was lucky enough to pick up a RS, and then a R1 pro for my Touring cars, I love there size and hotwire PC software is a must have. Tekin has for the most part been upfront with everyone on the R1, it simply doesnt work well with 21.5's and 13.5 turn motors, but with new firmware works very well with everything else. The new RS is more for those motors the R1 didnt accept, but has a neat feature to jump to unsensored mode after it has the motor moving, very innovative! I'll definately wait my turn to see if Tekin puts out the Mt this year, With the new Emaxx, ERevo and Esavage sport there's no reason not too.

that feature to switch from sensored to sensorless, has been used first in Speed passion GT (Hobby wing xerun 120).
I will wait the Mamba max pro, switch bec + 5S + sensor port = win

I think I'll just get a Schulze Universal L 115 controller( the size of a baby shoes) and it'll either make me happy or plain sad.

I can't wait until tekin starts cranking out these killer controls...I have a rage in my mini t and I'm in love with it. Shulze is a waste of money, my boat guy (in good conscious) refused to even sell me one!!

C'mon guys we are hanging here , please any updates .

[brushlessboy16]

is there a difference between the r1mt and the rx8?

[gixxer]

They just changed the name.

Anyone heard any news on it? Losi bought out a 1/8 ESC from no-where and Tekin is still making designing theirs

I'm sure when it's released though ( Tekin that is ) you won't be having any problems with it

[teamtekin]

We have been working on it quietly. We took a pretty good beating for being late on previous product announcements so we are taking a lower key approach.

We have been a thru a number of motor prototypes and think we are close to a final version. We also have the esc designed and in proto stages. Unique engineering takes a lot more time than mass produced OEM variations. How many colors do we need on basically the same stuff?

We are also seeing some good results on the R1pro with a metal housing to remove heat. The R1pro has more than enough power handling and actually has more fets than our Rx8 or any the 1/8 controllers. Due to its small size it may still have a home in the 1/8 market with a decent heatsink.

We hope to have some good lipos pretty soon and a separate BEC unit as well to take care of all the power needs.

Sounds good!

Are we talking soon as in before the end of this race season? Here in the Northeast we have basically two more months...If you miss the window for this season it's not a big deal, I'd just like to have a few items to put on my Christmas list to make shopping easy for my wife...
