Howdy Gang!
I finally joined the Tekno family, with a well used SCT410. I got this truck real cheap, and it will be kind of a restoration, as much as anything. I am not sure if it is a .1 or a .3 It did come with a Tekin Pro4 motor, a HW "JustStock" ESC (Will that tiny ESC run that Pro4?), a servo (off brand, but supposed to be great?), and a box of used tires (mixed SCT and Truggy) for $200. No body, one corner is missing the hex/pin/cvd pin, and there is a bit of surfice rust on lots of screws, and most of the outdrives/dogbones. Front right arm (same one missing the hex) has a bad creak and is binding a bit. 2 shocks leaking, and no shock boots. And a broke front bumper. So yeah, this will be a project.
To-Do:
Maybe do:

To-Do:
- Full tear down and cleaning, look for more problems.
- Find binding in front arm
- Rebuild shocks, probably need to get me some AE green slime.
- Front bumper - new stock bumper, or TBR or ?
- CDV rebuild kit.
- New wheel Hex kit.
- Body - Bug? or SCBE? Doubtful I will get a SCT body.
Maybe do:
- ESC - will this JustStock ESC be able to survive powering a Pro4 4800 motor? I worry about this. Maybe ESC swap.
- Motor - Maybe throw my BLX185 combo in there and run on 4s?
