- Here's my full running video of the Tekno RC ET48 2.0 - 1/8th scale 4wd Electric Race Truggy KIT. This was a blast to drive and I opted to do a dual session with both race tires and bashing tires! Fun fact: the bashing tires added nearly 5lbs!

Alright...last time: RACE or BASH? Which one did you like better? 🤔
BASH but with badlands 3.8 LP and it will be the ultimate basher
Race
With what’s said earlier bash with race tires haha, bigger jumps and lighter landings, great footage
Well both showed off a little of what it can do. I am a little afraid of how much that would cost to replace parts for? How would you compare it to a kraton or something similar for durability and price?
@@MauzyrockRC up front you do have to pay a little more because of not have if electronics but not much as now we have kit breakers like Jenny’s rc, I just through a 2200kv system from their
I could say so much about my two Tekno et48.3 but long story short I think it is can be the most durable car on the market, if you want ultimate durability
I would recommend
The Tekno et48.3 as right now their is more after market parts out for it
I built mine from the Tekno mt410 as the parts are very close except for chassis and shock towers, wing
The only m2c upgrades I have on it is the chassis, rear brace, tower brace
And the all racing metal top plate
Check out my last video to see what I put it through, I’ve landed 50 ft jumps upside down and it shakes it off
Overall you will pay roughly $800 to get it there
Fierce rc solution has massive coupons for Tekno and m2c products
Nothing tops the TEKNO RC ET48 2.0 🎭 absolutely no worries once it’s built correctly, seriously this truggy is the best. It’s now I’m favorite Rc... love watching any ET48 2.0 in action. 🤝 Great footage champ, keep goin fast 🏴☠️🏁🏴☠️
Thanks buddy! I've been checking out your build on FB - great pics!
My et48.3 is my favorite by far and my 2.0 is here in 2 weeks. I can't wait
@@glenncarlson3161 Nothing like the .3 hands down but going into the future of Rc’s, the 2.0 won’t let you down the slightest bit.
but its ugly as fuck
I'm not one of those who are complaining about its looks.
I love it tbh. Such a cool truggy!
And the most important thing is that it performs excellent on the dirt track!
And it sure does perform! Thanks for stopping by!
I actually think your paint scheme is better than those others that have inspired you. You always make awesome, clear point videos.
Wow, thanks!
Great to see it in action! I have to say that it looked better with the truggy wheels
I totally agree! Thanks for stopping by!
Awesome video bud with the pro line tires it is truly epic
It really is....drives so nice and smooth!
It looks like a Jekyll and Hyde scenario.
Racer set up looks planted and refined, Basher, a crazy beast on the loose!
What did you think Rich?
Seeing those 3.8 Badlands turning into pizza cutters and on 2 wheels was a rather dramatic turn around. 👍🇦🇺🤓
Thanks again mate, love your work.
Thanks Paul - yeah, you nailed it. the race tires were SO well balanced for the set up of the rig. It was SO controllable and predictable. The bash tires added a ton of weight....and rotational mass. Plus, I was running stock diff fluid, so it just transferred power to the fronts as you saw. I'm only going to run it with race tires going forward.
@ 4:34 putting her dancing shoes on! 👍🏾 when I do this at parks with my ramps...... it's about to turn up!! Double & triple backflips and big sends!! Can't get enough truggy bashing!
Yep, she can dance!
One of my friends also had an issue with the shock eye breaking. He dialed down the droop a good bit so it wasn't pulling on the shock and it's been fine since. The way he abuses his cars makes your durability montage look like child's play! Keep it up and enjoy the car! It sure can handle a lot and is still wicked quick
I'm shocked the truck didn't split in two as hard as it dropped from the sky - My buddy that filmed it also said that viewers don't realize how high that thing is going along with the elevated jump that we were on....has to be like a 50ft drop, easily
The front droop in the manual is wrong. It should be 116mm in stead of 121mm.
Nice job 1/8 truggy's are a blast to drive 🚗
Thanks buddy!
@@TheRCNetwork hey I just finished my capra kit runs great but when it's off it won't roll freely ..did I over tight the slipper clutch?
Tires are a bit big IMO but loved seeing this beast run. Excellent build my friend
Yeah, I wanted ridiculous....and got it! Likely going to the backflips now
Wow that thing is Awsome!!
What a beast!!!
Insane bashing it….i mean super smooth on the track but!!
It's a pretty amazing truggy. I really like how the race tires handles better though
Just realized he has not posted a video in two years. What happened ? One of my favorites
Who’s “he”?
Big Tire Race Truck... love it!
It's really an amazing driving truck....so smooth!
Yesssir 🔥 absolutely no doubt a smooth machine... Great job on the build 🏆
Thanks Brock!
In my experience, for a bashing setup, I use the Arrma Kraton shock springs, 100 wt oil, and the proline Buck Shot tyres. The prolines are SO much lighter…
What a great truck
It truly is....so well balanced (on race tires) and flies nice
The bashing tires you choose looks gigantic on the truck.
Yeah, I wanted them to stand out......I think it worked
I bash cuz there's no 1/8 scale tracks near me, but mine will be here in 2 weeks. Nice video man!!!!
Cool! Happy building!
Sweet! A Precision Basher.....I prefer the race tires.......and a half size 3000mah battery.....weight is the enemy😎
I need one, Hoping Horizon will let me use two of those $30 coupons.
The race tires were spot on.....so balanced, so smooth. The thing was so smooth!
2:11 awww, look at his widdle face
Right?
Sweet ride
Thanks buddy!
I love the durability montage. It reminds me of ultimate RC. Rip to that channel.
Yep - probably the main reason I started my channel....based on Jang's reviews
Regular non-MX38 Badlands will do, though wish they had belted versions for those.
very true!
Looks like a good basher. I think they should have deployed this to pull the Ever Given out of the Suez.
I agree on that one!
Some fast guys run the ET48 2.0 here in UK on astro. I'm happy with my EB48 2.0 though.
The EB/ET are great cars
Yes yes
Thanks for stopping by, Anthony!
What have you found to be the best tire/wheel combo for bashing on this Truggy?
Honestly, the race tires....they were very well balanced for it and it seemed to more nimble on those...you can always look into more aggressive truggy race-sized tires, but I'd stick with the 4" wheels
I like all about this video. Music, RC, and comments. Nothing overwhelming but informational and entertaining enough.
My pre-owned Arrma Outcast 1/8 EXB V2 is a good model but needs a lot of upgrades. I imagine how much owners of new models invest to make them rigid enough.
My choice is to buy a good preowned RC model or build something like Tekno on my own.
This choice is a result of the $€₴ investment in my Arrma, Axial, and Redcat trucks.
Hello from Ukraine. Your video help me to relax a bit.
Thanks for watching, buddy! Building a Tekno will really show you the quality of a race inspired RC. They truly are great RC's
First of all congratulations for your videos, I want to ask you what you think is better for bashing a truggy or the Arma Vorteks for example,... I want a car all around for bashing and jumps and sometimes for the track, a pro one and for tracks build by me.... What you think???
Well, traditionally, "truggies" are 1/8th scale like the one in this video...it can easily accept race or bashing tires. the Vorteks is a 1/10th scale size, so it's much smaller and doesn't really fall into any racing class
@@TheRCNetwork thanks for the answer and advice, I think that I will go for the truggy for the bashing and the track too
Nice. I definitely run more teeth on mine tho. 18-20 is my style
Love this... except for the body shell....
Those mx38's looks mean...but always ended up costing me a fortune every run...to heavy to bash with..... your better off with dboots backflips LP wheels.👍
Yep, already getting the Backflips...I weighed the MX38's and the they were almost 5 lbs......the truck with the race tires is 9lbs
Waaaaaaaaa! Stupenda
Thanks buddy! It's so fun to drive!
@@TheRCNetwork i just bought same kit!!!
Beautiful rig man! What colors did/do you use for the paint/your paint schemes. I wanna paint my new SCT 2.0 something similar. Mainly the blue. Thank you!
Thanks buddy! It's Pactra's metallic blue backed with outlaw black....but they have discontinued that line of paints. You can also try Tamiya's metallic blue
Nice video. Think i prefer the Backflip LP's (2.8) for a bashing tire, the 3.8 just seem to big
Not sure the 2.8's would fit on this....but haven't tried.
@@TheRCNetwork Backflip LP which are 2.8 fit like a dream, 3.8's are to big and heavy really: czcams.com/video/c4JFfiCzflE/video.html
Keep an eye on the slop in the gears of your AGF servos. I've been running A80BHSWs in my NB48 2.0 and have significant slip in the steering servo gears.
Never had a problem with my AGF's.....Probably have about 10 rigs with them now - my near 20lbs Mojave has the A80 in it
@@TheRCNetwork right, I haven't had any fail outright, but I have about 3 gallons on them in my NB48 2.0. I've got a few degrees of slop in either direction for the steering servo while the throttle one is still fine. There's clearly been some gear wear. I'm going to see if an A86 is any better in my ET48.
@@afrewer94 I’d suggest the A81….you’ll get a bit more speed vs the A86
@@TheRCNetwork that's true. I'll throw a faster one in it if it's too slow at the races today.
I'm throwing the stronger orange springs on mine. Stock they feel a bit too light - lots of chassis slap at the track.
What's weird, after this race/bash session, I had almost no wear on my chassis. Just a couple of non-gouging scrapes...but almost nothing on the typical rear tail end of the chassis. Are you weighted down by a heavy 6s or heavy electronics?
@@TheRCNetwork no, just a 6500mAh 4S pack. I'm going to see how the orange springs work out at the track this weekend.
Looking to get a new steering servo for my arrma senton…. What would you recommend? Also would I need a BEC system with these servos? I have the BLX 4s system
Hey. I got the exact same motor combo as you, on a losi 8ight xte, and i feel like the motor gets alittle hot? The esc barely breaks a sweat. What pinion are you running, and have you adjusted any timing or something?
I'm running a 15t....zero timing - no need on a 1/8th scale running 4s. I'd drop a couple teeth on your pinion and see if that helps....are you sure there's nothing holding the drivetrain up - like a blown bearing, bent suspension/driveshaft/etc? Also, what terrain/wheels tires? That also makes a difference
Question: the motor in my 1/8 scale buggy moves up and down when I land and it’s stripping the threads on the screws, how can I prevent this and what do I use
So, you have the two screws into the motor mount plate? How is it moving? I always use a bit of loctite on those as well.
When I land a jump the motor moves down from the force of landing. I use loctite on all the motor screw but it still comes loose
Strange, I've never had that happen...are you running the braces? Obviously, the more you let the chassis flex, the more it could potentially allow the motor to flew from the mount.
Get good quality motor, though i never had such problem even with chinese turnigy motor.
Maybe you rape threads with too much force and jumping just finishes them
Are you located near SB in this video? Where is this little track??
Not sure where SB is.....but this was in San Clemente, CA
Will this be your only running video of this truck? I'm pretty keen to see some more, I think your break is set to high, if you drop it you might find you don't have the same aggressive nose diving that occurred here.
Any thoughts on what fluids you would use for bashing?
This will be the only running video on the channel....I typically only do one. The only chance there would be another one is if I end up at a proper 1/8th scale track in the near future. As for the brake? It's set right....I went from running race tires to literally 5lbs worth of rubber....so ANY brake will effect drastically if 5lbs or 1/3rd of the weight suddenly stops. I also didn't get much time on the basher tires to get used to it before it broke....
@@TheRCNetwork it's a shame these cars only get a moment of glory, do you at least drive them again without the camera?
@@jonowillmer yes, all the time. But for me, when the camera is there, it’s work…..additional people are there to film, got to get the right shots and there different pressures. If I’m just driving, it’s a hobby
@@TheRCNetwork that's good to hear, and I hope you have a good weekend.
did the shock tower get any scratches? my main worry with this body
Nothing more than a buggy would....just slight scratches on mine atm
Great video! Do you think Badlands 3.8 (without MX) are a good compromise between your tire setup?
The original badlands 3.8 are a tad small - check my MT410 videos - that's those tires. They're basically the same size as the truggy race tires in this video, but with that aggressive tread
Et48 2.0 vs MT410 with M2c goodies?? Which would you prefer?
ET48 2.0. Drive it well and you don't need M2C anything
how are the badlands on the car thanks brothers
They're pretty aggressive...and really over kill. I liked how the truck performed with the race tires. Much better balanced and seemed to be much lighter on it's "feet"
Actually thinking of bashing with racing tires because of their lightweight for big jumps, I have aka now I still have yet to use them, I hope I made the right choice, my worry is the wheel cracking, any experience might proline be better?
Difference is amazing tho saved about 10 ounces
The race tires were SO much better. very similar grip, even on this bashing track.....The ET was so controllable with them
I have an eb48.2, would you say it’s a big difference between et48.2? Or just mainly size? I find mine super durable! Haven’t had many issues with it.
Well, if you have the EB48.2 - besides size, the ET48 2.0 is drastically different, as it's the new generation of RC's from Tekno - totally different chassis/parts. Just like the the EB48 2.0
@RCNETWORK-which servo is better for 1/10 scale 4wd buggy a high torque steering servo or a high speed steering servo? Aaron
Depends on what you're looking for. I always pick the servo on torque first....and most 1/10th scale buggies need about 300oz/in......then I buy down the speed. Meaning for a 300oz/in servo is not a lot of money...until it becomes fast. You'll want 300oz/in and about 0.10 or faster for 1/10th buggy. 0.07-0.08 being ideal. That extra 0.02 seconds will cost some money though. Also, keep in mind, many newer 1/10th scale buggies require lo profile servos. Take a look at the AGFRC A66BHLW - it's a powerhouse
@@TheRCNetwork Thank you
LOOOOVE TEKNO👍 can you please recommend me some good stiffer rear springs for my mt410.3? I went to kraton rear springs because even at full preload the rear shocks just sagged a little much for me I don't like my ass end squatting so bad under acceleration. But still not good enough. Maybe you know of a stronger stiffer spring I can run? Thanks bro!
Have you looked at the ET48 2.0 springs? They might be long, but that's good. Pull the manual and they always have the spring recommends at the end
How do you think it compares to the tlr 8ight xte?
I'm a huge fan of the Tekno lineup. They just work, no weird gimmicks, un-needed carbon, etc. And they just don't break. I'd pick the Tekno over the TLR any day
Just wondering what you do with all the cars you review. Do you sell them?
I keep some, sell some and giveaway some.
Question plz. I just bought EB48 2.0. Is this truggy an upgraded version of EB48? Or just the same but In truggy ?
The EB48 2.0 is an awesome choice....the ET is just longer and wider, with very similar details. If I had to choose, I'd always get the buggy
@@TheRCNetwork nice. haha.
You could have ran that truggy upsidedown with those mx38's lol
Seriously! No Joke!
did you keep the stock (manual) set up?
Yep, all 100% manual spec....which is why the bash sequence looked a bit awkward...ballooning fronts etc
Heat issues with combo?
Not at all, even after the run with the bash tires...I could full touch the motor
Backflips Lp or original badlands would fit better
Likely, but wanted to show one of the most ridiculous tires available! lol
What!!¡!!!!!!!!!!!! NO commentary on what broke?
Basically a rod end, that was it.....
@@TheRCNetwork thank you!! That is w hat I was wanting to know. I know it's a tough truck. But just doing my homework before spending the money
U proved your point and it bashes just fine. Please don’t do that again with your $1200 new investment and stick to the manicured carpet tracks and climate controlled converted warehouses. That was brutal to watch….respect to all the bashers has been given…time for its intended purpose, winning with style. Just my 2cents and that ain’t worth a penny
V
Yeah, not fond of bashing a race rig....but people wanted to see it...and many of the new ET's out there are headed that way.
The 3.8 tires are some of the worst I've ever owned. Heavy garbage. That truck would be amazing with some backflip Lp's
These are quite heavy....
