sweet shane about esc

that sucks my buddys tekin rx crapped out also. hopefully they dont have a long turnaround time my mmm is still great on my 8ight:lol:

Got my MBX6T Tekno conversion today. I did some homework tonight and I am going to post some pics soon....:gasp:

Mbx6t
 

I attached a few pictures of our "stock chassis" mbx6T conversion - will be ready for sale in a few days. Everything bolts onto the stock chassis - no mods required. The battery/esc tray is pocketed on the underside for wire routing, and drilled at the ESC location for the Tekin RX8 as well as the Traxxas MMM hold-down. Built in rx mount with transponder mount is similar to our other offerings. A unique and handy feature of this kit is the fact that removing 12 screws allows the owner to completely remove all the electronics from the chassis without unplugging or unsoldering anything. :)

Nice job Mike! That kit looks great!

Hi, just curious on why you went the Tekno route. Were you not happy with your conversion?

Is the battery tray and esc holder all in one.

That chassis is Mike's design

I believe it is...you can order one when you order a custom tray

The ESC bolts onto the back of the battery tray. All one piece. Makes for easy removel for cleaning/maintenance. 4 screws hold the steering/rx/transponder plate(plus 1 screw for the steering linkage). 2 screws to loosen the motor from the motor mount(or 4 screws to remove the whole center diff assembly). 5 screws for the battery tray and all the electronics can be removed without unplugging or unsoldering anything. The entire "power pod" can be removed in about 1 minute(maybe 2 or 3 if you take your time).
The battery tray has quite a bit of machining on the top and bottom, actually - starts out as a 1 pound, 4oz piece of plastic and ends up to be 3oz total weight when complete. :)

And yes, these trays will show up as an option in the battery tray listing as I complete them(have mbx6, mbx6t and 808 in queue now and will add losi and other vehicle specific trays in the future).
I will bundle the motor mount, battery tray and servo/rx plate into kits as well for easy shopping. :)

So, Mike makes the Tekno conversions found on Impaktrc? Brushlessracer said he has the Tekno one (with a custom chassis). What Mike has, uses the stock chassis.

Sorry for the confusion. I still don't get it, or did I miss something.

I do not make the Tekno kits found on Impakt - Tekno is the manufacturer of Tekno kits(ImpaktRC is Tekno's retail site).
I also make chassis kits(RC8 now, but Mugen, XRay, Kyosho and Odonnel in final stages of development), but they are RC-Monster kits, not Tekno. I also make parts that allow conversions of most vehicles using the stock chassis, though(started this way and will continue offering ala carte products along with bundled kits).

That's what I thought.

My original question was directed towards BrushlessRacer—who did go the Tekno route (and why he did).

Magman mis-spoke - because he knows that I am also working on a full chassis kit for the mbx6T, and he likely thought the picture was this kit. I chose to convert the stock chassis first because it will be less expensive, faster to produce, and works rather well(all while utilizing the stock components, which are excellent quality).
