wow, I just saw this thread. I knew you were ordering one from the other post but never say this. Anyways looking forward to seeing the end result. Really odd about the diff though.
now what I would really like would be for losi to make a sc electric version of this. I already have a slash 4x4 but just ordered the jammin scrt10 cause I think they will be faster on the track. |
Well, sold the radio and engine on ebay. Got $185 for the radio and $215 for the engine (WTF???). After shipping and ebay/paypal fees, the Ten-T ruggy costed me a heair less than $200. Not too bad.
|
The Ten-T would be AWESOME if it could be converted to a 4wd SCT. Keep the cry babies from whining about buggy conversions since they are to heavy......sniff sniff.:rofl:

Tell me about it! I figured ~$80 + shipping would be about right. I was SHOCKED to see it climb to 200 during the last few seconds of the auction (the $15 is for shipping)! I almost feel bad that it went so high. Granted, it came with the engine, pipe, tank, clutchbell, gloplug, and wiring harness, but still.

Sucker born every day!

Btw. Brian a got my car today:D The only problem is the motormount screws are pretty much stuck -.- i broke a traxxas hex tool thingy in half and the screws ARE STILL THERE!!! Anyway the car looks great:D |
Yeah, they were in there pretty good. Took a little muscle to break them loose, but I didn't break any tools. Try heating the screw area up with a heatgun/lighter to get the locktite loose.

Hey brian.
Have you heard anything from mike? :D I cant wait to go brushless:-P (again) |
Yeah, I talked to him last night, and he just got the Truggy in the mail on Monday. I am not in a huge rush being winter and all, so I told him to take his time. Besides, I'm sure he has a bunch of other customer requests ahead of mine.

But hope i can get my losi finish soon:) |
I'm sure he'll list the parts in the store as soon as they're finished.
When he looked over the truggy, he said liked what he saw and ordered one that night. So, he is doubly motivated now. :smile: |
Haha ;) that boy aint right XD
But i really cant wait to see what he comes up with :lol: |
I honestly believe Mike has about one of everything ever made. At least for the last ten years
|
Count me in for a Ten-T conversion kit. I saw one of these at a hobby shop about a month ago and thought it was just about the coolest thing I've seen in a while. Just ordered on from Losipartshouse for $409.00 shipped. They way I see it if I sell the radio, servo's and motor for $200-225 I got a really sweet roller for around $200.00.
I'm excited to see what Mike comes up with. |
Dammit!!! Now I have to get one of these!!!
|
It just seems slliy to me that Losi wouldnt just make an electric version of this. It would probably sell better than the nitro version. Im betting this will be a good selling kit or Mike.
This would also make a really killer platform for Losi to build a 4x4 short course truck to compete with the Hyper SC10, Jammin SCRT 10, and the Slash 4x4. I got to check one of these out that a guy had at the track a couple weeks ago. i was really impressed with it. Looked like a solid litte truggy. Much more stoute than the other mini truggys out there now, and much more capable on the track as well. Looking forward to seeing the conversion kit for this liitle guy. SHould be really nice. |
I just hope Mike doesn't take all the time building a conversion kit and then Losi comes out with the e-version. If that happens, all that time is pretty much wasted. Granted, Mike's kit will probably be better quality-wise, but more people will just get the e-version and not bother with the conversion. I guess the best he can hope is if Losi does do an e-version, that it isn't as robust (seems to be the case for many e-versions) making his kit a better value.
|
I'll buy Mike's Version, and know I've got a much better product:yes:
|
It looks like there's four confirmed so far and maybe five or six.

in on the conversion as well.. :) .. looks like my next 1/10th scale..
|
There you go Mike! At least 5 conversion kits pretty much sold. Better get cracking! :wink:
|
After some "re-search" i found ot that HPI 17mm hex kit fits the tent (ten-t) # 86925
I havent tried it, but from the specs it should fit:) I was hoping to ude 2.2" wheels on it, but im pretty sure they wont fit:( unless you have about 50mm offset:-P :lol: |

hmmm buggy tires on a 1/10th scale truggy....i wonder what that will look like?
|
Probably not too bad really. The stock tires are close to the same diameter, but a little wider than buggy tires. So, the width might be a little off. You can get an idea from the pic posted earlier in this thread, but here it is again for your convenience:
http://scriptasylum.com/forumpics/losi_ten_6.jpg Personally, I think 8th scale truggy tires would make it look like a MT, which might be ok for bashing since it will offer a bit more clearance. |

Not to big on paint are ya Brian....:lol: |
lol, nope. I figure why spend all kinds of time painting a body that will be all scuffed up within 30 seconds of me running it. The only time I run a painted body now is if it comes that way.

This Ten-T is hyping up to be a nice conversion! Might be the new craze. But I too am surprised that Losi didn't release an electric version. With the craze of electrics and conversions now-a-days I'm actually shocked they didnt. I'm surprised they don't offer an electric truggy either... I sure hope they don't jump the bandwagon soon! I hope Mike can get yet another great product out to this community! |
You need a new avatar now... A paint can with a circle/slash over it. LOL

If there is a way to retain the mechanical brakes, this would be the fastest SCT on the track!
|
Quote:
im just gonna use the ESC / motor brake:) That will be harder on motor and esc, but keeps the weight down :lol: |
Quote:
No, you put the motor on the other side. Also you can get away with a small brake servo and weight will be negligible. |
