My first Tekno was the awesome ET48.3 i built in September 2018. I was so impressed that 2 weeks later I had new EB48.4 and SCT410.3 kits waiting to be built. Work got in the way for a year, and this past December I added the
EB410.2, then the ET410.2 and
EB48 2.0 when they showed up at my LHS. The Truggy platform has always been my favorite, and Ive been patiently waiting for the new 2.0 ET to add to the ever growing RC garage .. When the TLR 8ight-XTE came out I had to grab one as well as the 8ight-E Elite to compare to the Tekno's, as Ive picked up the 22x4, 22 5.0 Elite, SCTE 3.0, 22T 4.0 over the last few months to compare to the Tekno rigs, and also added the B6.2. The Tekno models are still the best when it comes to being the most stout and hard to break even when crashing super hard. Just last week I hit a fence post with the front right wheel then right rear suspension arm, and the only part that had to be replaced was the two little plastic rear hinge pin holders. The pin did bend but was easily straightened till I got home where my replacements were, and the D block needed to be bent back straight, again till I got to my new replacement. I bought a tin of replacenent parts with every kit, arms, shock shafts, pins, shock towers etc, basically all moving parts and suspention related parts, and over 2 years later at least 90% of them are still in tge unopened packaging. I cant say the same thing about any of my other branded kits. Many of them may come with fancier carbon and aluminum goodies which Ive had to add to the Tekno kits, but these parts, like the carbon front shock tower on my 22x4 broke the first time I flipped over in a parking lot, where as the stock EB and ET410.2 towers can take tons of flips and not snap...
Anyway, getting back on track, I cant wait to add the new
ET48 2.0 rig to the collection!! The EB 2.0 is amazing!!
