Pauly's Tekno MT410 Build 2.0

[Pauly]

You're correct except the Tekno aluminum horn is threaded to hold the screw. Screw it in, drop the linkage on, and nut on top.

 

[Pauly]

I'm hooked on these motors. They're top end quality at a low end price point
RC Juice has some excellent customer service and fast & free shipping. I ordered this on Friday...they're in Cali and I'm in CT. Can finalize my wiring now

looks good, i'm surprised you didn't go with the Hobbystar 4082 or 4092! I wish the bigger motors came with a sensored option though... i know for high speed bashing it doesn't make much of a difference but a lot of times i like to tool around at low speed too and sensored is super nice...

 

[Pauly]

Definitely wanted sensored and 1700KV was what I was after so I went for the 4274. Plus I'm not sure if I could mesh a small enough pinion for the big ole tires I'm going to be running if I used a fatter can. Little shorter would've been nice tho. It was tight with the sensor wire, but I made it work with a little bit to spare.
All wired up!! Love soldering with that Hakko station.



Was gonna give up for the night and move on to something else, but I figured why not mount my body

My buddy Oscar aka RCWERKZ hooked me up with this one. The pictures don't even do it justice. It's already reinforced and ready to go too.







Now back to waiting game to finish. Had a small change of plans I'm waiting on now.

He has at least one. I sent him a link to the forums. His truck was the guinea pig and poster truck for all the T-Bone bumpers.

Nice! Be awesome to see him posting his work here.

Very nice build Pauly. Hard to improve on the 1st one but you did just that. I am going to take some cues from this when I do some maintenance and mods. The emulsion shocks in particular. Just the sound of consistency is why I would do it.

Thanks buddy

Let's add some more then

RX for the Futaba 4PLS, Tekno steering horn, and M2C Racing front & rear tower/body mount braces.

 

[Pauly]

The shock tower/body mount braces went on tonight. Fitment is great. I didn't drill and bolt the plates as instructed tho. I've heard that makes everything too rigid causing issues so I left them with just the shock standoffs holding the plates.




First time with wheels/tires on it. Everything is operational and the finishing touches should be just about done tomorrow.

Good info on the ST braces. Looks awesome all together man. Look forward to seeing her rip.

Thanks man. Me too. Feels like I've been waiting forever on parts to finish it up so I can start breaking stuff

Perfections takes time. Highly doubt there will be breaks with all that Beefy upgrades but i am still waiting for my 6 plex backflip so who knows.

 

[Pauly]

Well I think I'm done for now except for the aluminum steering top plate and center diff top plate.
T-Bone bumpers, mud guards, and Savox SB2290sg.

 

[Pauly]

More parts Thanks Seth!! I have a few things on my plate right now, but I will put a list together of all what's in this thing.

The plates are so nice... it's crazy that none of the known companies are making them.
I've been contemplating the m2c rear chassis brace. when i flex the chassis with my hands, i see absolutely zero movement there with the stock brace and I wonder just how beneficial that m2c rear chassis brace is with the short chassis. don't get me wrong, i still want it just because i'm a hopup bling junkie like the rest of us. just trying to figure out what hop ups actually have benefit first.. ha ha. i think the rear shock tower support will be my next one.

looking awesome Pauly

Thanks man. I won't even run without the M2C rear tower brace. I've actually even broken one on my ET48.3. I'm hoping the aluminum rear chassis brace keeps the likelihood of bending a chassis down as well, cuz I've done that too

i think i remember you breaking one in an old post, or at least i recall people saying it helped but still didn't make it bomb proof when you land upside down repeatedly... guess i'll pull the trigger on one soon but hoping for some decent memorial day sales!
