AMain's videos just hit different. Brett's delivery, presentation, and the overall video structure is on point, I really look forward to any and all videos by you guys! I've been racing my 3S Typhon for fun with the 1/8th scale buggies but when I finally do a proper kit build I may be looking at one of these things. I definitely like Tekno's 1/10th scale SCTs but never considered them for 1/8th scale for some reason. Thanks for the review!

Man they have improved a lot. I’m glad they fixed a lot of the issues like the hing pin inserts being too short. If your gonna use the forward position with the shorty lipo you would want to put a 20 gram weight in the rear to help balance it out.

I think a 1900kV motor would be a better choice for this particular track condition and layout. Don’t really need too much power on such loose surfaces.

Thanks for this review. It’s currently at the top of my list for next years buggy. I’m just curious how the car will go on the higher grip stuff we have here in the UK - Astro turf and mixed surfaces. I get the impression it’s a car built with low grip and dirt surfaces in mind.

I heard the AE wasn't very good out of the box so instead of building it stock, I spent lots of money on parts to follow a a pro's setup sheet. In the end, it performed good, but cost a lot of money. The tekno on the other hand is really good out of the box and is a little easier to drive. -Brett

Honestly the nitro looked better. 1900kv would have made the ebuggy less likely to spin the tires and stay planted as it wouldn't be over shooting the jumps

I have 2 sets of grp tires and don't like them at all. J concepts and proline are the best, in my opinion. However, I mostly use vp pro and dialed rc. Which are both pretty good.

Call me old school, but it's much easier to feather the throttle with a thumb on a stick, than a finger on a trigger.
@malsmith20122 ай бұрын
I'm hearing you mate.. I'm 50 and never had a pistol transmitter until I got back in to the hobby 5 years ago and even though I'm used to it I still think with a stick I'd be way better and especially in braking.. Pushing forward with my index /trigger finger isn't natural to me.. I wish spektrum made a stick radio that would work with all the current and recent models of receivers

I think a lot of people find a trigger easier if they grew up playing video games, most modern racing games use triggers for control now.

$700 is not a bad price. When you buy an Arrma Typhon 6s, you need to make some upgrades. With this Tecno, you don't need to do that. This Tecno 2.2 will keep an eye on him, I'm really interested
@collinmorris2 ай бұрын
700 for the kit, motor combo $350, servo $150, wheels and tires $40, so that build is actually more like $1,200- $1,300 and that still doesn’t include the rx/tx

I know video doesn't translate. It doesn't look super impressive here. How would those lap times compare to a 6s basher? A Fireteam for example. I'm familiar with it and to me it seems to be a decent handling truck or buggy. It would be cool if you could bring a common non racing rig to compare with in a video like this for us non racer types watching. If anything just so we'd have more appreciation for what we're watching.
