Max8 esc G2 fit in an MT410?

[mr_joe]

Couldn't see a definitive answer but will a Max8 esc fit in the standard esc location on an MT410? Planning parts for an Mt410 build and this will be my first Tekno (coming from Arrma/Traxxas) so wondering if this esc would fit?

Is your MT410 stock or what modifications did you have to make to get this combo to fit?

Somebody on YouTube had a lot of trouble getting this ESC to fit and had to make a custom mount to place the ESC on it’s side.

Have this combo (4278 and max8 G2) in my mt410, fits with a couple of mm spare. No mods needed.

I would recommend the metal centre diff housing with this combo... the plastic one melted and a spyder broke in half on mine pretty quickly..but since ive used the metal housing its been great

Sorry and one more thing i would suggest is dont use the supplied threadlocker, use a known good product. I use Loctite 222

Is that the fit with the M2C center brace? Just burned up my Castle ESC today and looking for a drop in replacement.

Hi, I actually used the tekno one, part no. Tkr5113s. Mainly because it was available and cheapest. But i know with this tekno version the screw holes in the housing are not exposed to diff fluid. I have read others are open to the fluid. Id be interested to know how the allracing one is. My front and back diffs are still stock.

Sorry the allracing centre diffs are a little bit cheaper, but the tekno ones are steel have you worked out what body your gonna use? I use and recommend a roll cage and body bag. I bash mine hard on bmx tracks and I honestly think I would of given up on the rig if it wasnt for the cage.. it allows me to take the risks and learn. Ive exloded two bodies on it when I first built it and bodies are not cheap. The cage also sprung
