Lol that's what I figured you meant. I really debated getting the ET48 over the MT410 but I just couldn't justify the extra $150 for a hash machine. Maybe I'll get an ET in the future.

Save up and look for sales. They go on sale once in a while and add a coupon on top of that. Save even more.
Also look for Savage Sam. He puts some abuse on a MT410.

I like the mt410 as well but both are pretty much out of reach at this time. Guy on Killeroffroadhobbyz did great review on youtube.

Well I didn't get to mess with it last night and just started on it today. Looks like I have plenty of room between the Toro X8T motor and the Mamba Monster X. I'm wondering if I should be using Castle Connectors over the XT90's....what do you guys think? Any benefit over XT90's?
I wonder how much room I will have in my MT. Hopefully I get to finish that up this weekend.
I agree with WoodiE, that if everything you have runs XT90, I would stay with them as that system probably pulls the same amps as the Armma vehicles. I have all of my vehicles (except my mini revo but that takes completely different batteries) switched to XT150, but I also run 8s in my Baja 5B and that's why I upgraded them. If I didn't convert my Baja, I would have stayed with XT90 connectors.

I have a Monster X with the Castle 2200kv in my SCT410.3, I have about the same clearance. MT410 and SCT410.3 use the same chassis.
I think all electric Tekno vehicles use roughly the same mounting locations on the chassis. Except the EB410.
That is awesome to hear. I want sure if the truggy had more room because of the longer chassis. Anybody know what the longest can you can get in there is?
hey mongoose what is the rc downunders ET?
Liking it! I'm wanting to get the ET chassis for my MT410, essentially making it an ET48.
Have you seen the t-bone mud guards?
I don't have any on my MT410 but I've heard the Tekno one are kinda flimsy lexan and get beat up real fast. The T-bones are nylon and should hold up much longer.

I've got the same soldering iron it's awesome!

Sick Bro. I have those shocks on my Kraton. Really want to get one of these in the future
My kit will be here sometime this week and I have a new blx185 combo coming also that I'm going to use in it. 4s and if I feel the need some 6s. Nice build, and rcjuice has got awesome customer service. I emailed them once and got a response in less then an hour.
Sweet dude you got one?

My ET48.3 arrives from Tower on Wednesday. I will be taking advantage of all the great tips I find on this site to help me build it right.
What is the blue material on your working surface? It looks good.

It’s a guy on YouTube’s name. I really like his paint scheme and I’m going to paint mine somewhat like his.
I will try to get the weight for ya. I will need to bring it in to work so it may be a couple days.
Yes! I finally got one lol! I will need to sell my Kraton but I think it’s a good trade off. This thing is really stout and the suspension is so plush...I’m glad I made the switch. Don’t get me wrong the Kraton is awesome but this is in another league.
It’s a great kit and went together pretty easy for me even though it was my first time. You’ll really enjoy it. Don’t hesitate to ask questions and I will do my best to answer them because it’s all still pretty fresh in my mind.
Do you know what wheels and tires you will be running? You may need extended wheel hexes depending on what you run. Don’t want you to finally get to putting the wheels on it only to find out your wheels lock up the drive train or rubs.
I would get some Green Slime to use when you build the shocks. The kit doesn’t come with it but it will be useful so you don’t tear the o-rings.
The blue surface is the Tekno Pit Mat. It’s great to have in case you drop a screw or something as it cushions it so the screw doesn’t bounce or roll off the table.
Edit - Also, if you don’t have the Tekno Multi-Tool then you will need a 12mm and 17mm box end wrench to tighten the hexes on the shock.
