Wow its been a long time since I posed this topic. Anyways I will agree it would make a nice x-mas present.

Hopefully it will be out by the end of the year. That way I could get one and get another 8th scale buggy.

I say that Tekin is one of the best companies around and they've been so silent about the RX8, because they won't cause any disapointment to us.

I'll put it in the dark until it's out.

FYI, I've fried my R1Pro pretty badly:

That looks familar. I fried my rs yesterday but not nearly that bad. On mine I am not sure if a wire came off and cause a short or what. Just know after the smoke the - soldiering post was no longer attached to the board.

Mine was in a 2wd 10th scale buggy on 2s though. That is probably why mine doesn't look nearly as bad. Case is still intact.

Anyways I emailed Tekin today and will say what they say about a repair.

Which cap were you using? Was it in a cool spot? Some guys are running cooler temps on 5s, maybe that has something to do with it.


:D
