Tekno ET48 2.0 Truggy - Build Reveal - Race or Bash?? 🤔 HOBBYWING | AGFRC | GensAce

[@TheRCNetwork]

So, what would you have changed on the build? 🤔

[@deltazero3796]

Body. It ooks like toilet on wheels.

[@simbanugz2906]

Lol that goofy body has to go. Spending over $1000 on a build what's another $40 for a body that don't look like a toilet and a boat had a baby

Goofy to you, beautiful to me....

[@coachdyllliddell4808]

Keep stock body for race , and a older version to bash , to protect front component better from bashing

[@fourpony4566]

Why did you go with the Hobbywing 4274 instead of something like a Tekin T8 Gen 3? I am looking at about 1900Kv for my build since I have a lot of 6s batteries and am maybe too cautious about over revving the motor.

@@TheRCNetwork Is it true that they slimmed this one down compared to the last truggy? I'm getting the impression that it's not as durable as the previous kit.

[@byzone0632]

@@Cardiakk I don’t know where you heard that from. The chassis is wider for one. The arms are the same thickness. The shocks towers a millimeter thicker. Nothing was “slimmed down” to my knowledge

[@byzone0632]

@@Cardiakk there is one weak point I see in it. The bulkheads (which were a last minute revision thrown into the box as they were being shipped out) seem to have a lot of carbon in them (or at least mine did) making them a little bit more brittle than they should be. But this was a first batch kit, by the second batch they should have fixed the bulkhead problem and then it will be the most durable truggy.

Tekno has never been known for their incredible artistic body styling, but they have hit an all time stinker with this one. I know all the arguments for performance, but come on Tekno, we like good styling as well. Just my opinion.

Pretty much any "vintage" truggy body will fit and Tekno included mounting holes on the tower for the old style as well. I love that Tekno thought outside the box and went with function over fashion

What weight diff fluids would be good to bash with in the et48 2.0 (dirt and low grass)?

If you're gonna run the stock sized tires/wheels, the stock diff fluids are perfect. I'd keep the ET out of grass though.....grass will kill your electronics/Rc pretty quick. You'll heat up everything with the added resistance.

I say put some smaller Basher wheels, (4s backflips) on it. It will lighten it up! I know Techno is spot on for quality and it COSTS $$$. I think you nailed it on the paint.

Really clean build and I understand wanting try it on the track because that’s what it was built for. Bashing is fun and that’s mostly all I do now, because of life, but there’s nothing better then taking a fresh build and ripping it around the track. Especially an amazing car like this one. Cant wait to see the run video/review. Just as a question, I’ve been thinking about getting a et410 as a basher/racer. What do you think?

[@byzone0632]

If your just bashing you would have more fun with an mt410. But if you are doing both racing and bashing the et410 is great for both. I bashed mine a little at the beginning of quarantine and it held up okay all things considered.

[@TheRCNetwork]

The ET is a great little basher....grab a 540 4 pole (4600kv) and SCT wheels/tires and there you go

Nice Rich! The one piece front windshield IS a better look for that body. 6S certainly can be fun, but my EXB with a 5000mah 6s is 14 lbs.........great for single jumps.....but Not nimble enough for track bashing. I’m going to build an ET48 for 4S and keep it light😎

Agreed on the front....the other trend now that I've painted is making the two side windows into one. I'm all for keeping 4s in this...I've never been caught up in the voltage game....but wanted to give that as an option

[@jonthomas8487]

I personally don’t like RTR’s so really the only bash worthy kit options out there are only from Tekno. Sure ARRMA makes the EXB series but those are assembled. I think if Tekno made a version of this with more plastic and dropped the price point it’d still perform well maybe have everything the same as this but use a honeycomb plastic bathtub style chassis I think they’d sell well. I’m not a racer as I don’t have the time to do it. It doesn’t really intrigue me, but others who race Tekno is great. I’ve thought about building up an SC410 as a basher as well

[@TheRCNetwork]

The SCT410.3 and MT410 are Tekno's more entry level race/bash kits with a little less upgraded parts - they have plastic shock caps, plastic suspension holders, 6061 aluminum chassis plates, etc. Still super high quality over Arrma, but in Kit form. I highly doubt that Tekno will drop into the plastic tub chassis end of RC, it's just not what the focus is or what they have time for - they're a racing brand.

[@YAO-68]

Body shell in the bin, as soon as I get one of these......did Tekno forget what's aerodynamic? 🤣🤣🤣

[@TheRCNetwork]

That was their purpose in designing it this way,......Aero! The traditional Truggy bodies may look "normal" but have a parachute effect and literally zero aerodynamics

Are you sponsored by AGFRC or any of the brands used in this video?

[@TheRCNetwork]

"Sponsored" is such a mis-used word. Over the past few years, I have consistently used certain brands depending on what's available and what's new on the market. It never seemed like I could get the "perfect storm" when doing builds....like, I would have a motor/ESC for testing...but not the right battery, servo, etc. I approached a couple of manufacturers last year about using their products in my kit builds - mostly because I trusted their products, having tested them for years now and I knew they had a wide variety to fit all of my builds from crawlers, to race to U4 to on road. AGFRC is one of those brands. Do they supply product for my builds? Yes. But I stand behind their products and the quality they provide. If I have an issue with their products, I alert them to the issue and provide feedback for them to resolve the issue prior to anything being suggested as being top notch on my channel. I've done this same process with many, many products and brands....and have not published videos or recommended products because of it.
