Hi guys,

This is the product I'm reviewing today:

The reason I bought this product ~$100 USD is because I'm sick destroying bodies on my SCT (including so-called unbreakable bodies) and I've had extremely good luck with those Bash Armor bodies in the past.

The second reason I went for this body is because the it is a Flo-Tek body and I'm hoping to get a lot less parachuting with it.

See the e-revo body I'm running on my MT410 with a lot of success here:

Installation:

Note that the body is extremely thick and it will not fit with the stock Tekno posts (the hole for the pin is too low).

To make it work nicely, I decided to use those posts:

To get them fit in the stock mounts, you will need to grind them a bit:

Since I already run those posts on a slash in the past, I decided to replace the head-less-screws with longer ones I got at a hardware store.

Stock screws:

Longer version:

To also prevent them from pulling off, I glued the screws in the posts:

Final result:

Mounted on my "1/8 scale SCT", (this is an EB48.2 turned into an SCT):

I love the fit and stance it has. Although I could live with more stickers to give it a bit more color.

See from the rear all the vents for air-flow:

I can tell you this thing is STRONG.

Great job! You are spot on with your observation. But…. I have been able to use 1/10 clips fairly easily With no other modifications. Takes a bit of concentration but holding well so far.

This is a great review Nicochau! Am looking forward to some post bash analysis. I really appreciate your posting how you made it work with the body posts.

I wonder if it’s worth painting the outside for more color.

I agree that more decals would be great. I think there are some to be had aftermarket.

Also wondering about any appreciable reduction in parachute effect
 
Hi fans,I also run flow tech body went thru several taping and painting to run white but they dont last long where do I get the indestructible body at,I got stickers lol just no sturdy bodies?
 
Hey guys. How are the bodies holding up? I finally pulled the trigger on the monster fusion because pro line has discontinued the flo tek bash armor. I’m bummed. I’m also getting a wrap for it so it’s not all white.

Mine is holding up great 👍

All bash armor bodies I use are holding up great. Without any doubt, the strongest bodies I have ever used.
 
Good to know. I’m reallly sick of destroying the typical bodies. I wonder why pro line discontinued the bash armor flo tek
