Yep, I have a tekno kit coming too, the price was too good to pass up, plus I found a revo roller for 155 with a ton of spares. I still need to go thru it and makes sure it is in good shape! Will be interesting to see how well the clutch adapter thingy works! I am thinking of going with a 15l on 5s, or maybe aveox will get my 2000kv motor back to me in time. I have a quark 80 air esc to use as brakes are not a concern.

Wow, it was awesome, until I stripped a spur doing a wall ride . I have the 3.3 chassis I got from Arct1k but no brace, and I had the slipper set maybe a little too tight to bash with (I race with it tight). My mesh may have been just a tad tight too, maybe. Also, it didn't switch gears, I think it was stuck in second. Well I'm going to replace that spur and I got a body to paint, but I'll post some pics first. My Mamba and TrueRC battery were both cool to touch but the fiego was getting hot already (only ran for about 5 min neighbor saw me do a wallride perfect then said I should do it some more, another neighbor comes out.... you get the idea). The clutch felt really good, smooth starts. Theres a little more deadband at the beginning of the throttle as opposed to a direct drive setup but I think it feels good. Something I was thinking about the clutch, it should lower the peak amp draw because it is easier to get the car moving. Anyway, any questions?

Some stuff I got


The TeknoRC kit as it come out of the box


Battery Tray


Bottom part of motor mount


Mount standoffs

[Matthew_Armeni]

ESC plate


Tranny mount for plate


The elec clutch, you don't have to use an e-clip, a 3mm screw and washer work too



The motor mount, the slot is so you can get to the setscrew


And something cool about the motor mount (If I mounted mine in the low position the motor would have just barely rubbed the rear arm, but that's because I am using the RC-Monster heatsink, the higher position fits fine, and it you run a neu there's no interference, I can't give up the extra cooling for lower cg)


And because I live in San Diego, where Tekno is based, regular mail only takes a day to deliever

And finally, a complete shot, after my spur gear incident

So... How is it? Does it run well, any quirks?
