The first post in this thread did say Mid July for availability...so 3 months later w/no motors yet, I can understand why some people are getting a little upset

No real justification for "getting upset" no matter how late they are. To paraphrase the race director at the club where I race: "Who here is unable to feed their family because the Tekin SC motors are not yet released?"

Ty and Randy Pike are the only ones coming close to that scenario and they are not complaining (at least not publicly).

Get real guys - we are playing with toys. No matter how serious you are about them, they are still toys (ultimately unnecessary to you and your family's survival on this earth).

It did not say what year, however. LOL. Oh well, no biggie here. It has been many, many years since I gave Tekin any of my money....guess it will be a few more.... just canceled my pre-order.

I totally agree with all of your points. I was just merely pointing out the fact that some people had probably planned on using these motors for this race season and were looking forward to it. After anticipating the release and having it be pushed back several times...to some that is frustrating.

I am also waiting for the release of these...since I am in not in a hurry, no bother to me if they are delayed. I have many other trucks to play with

Sorry for the delay guys. It's been far longer than we anticipated. They're in final assembly and packaging now. Should see them hitting stores in the next 10 days at the latest.

Once out for distribution it takes a few days for distributors to get 'em out.

well i for one am waiting for the motor, yes it would of been nice to have it this year but its just a toy, im still going to buy one even if it takes till next season


on a side note TeamMgr

is the RS Pro going to handle these on 2cell lipo without problems?

The RS Pro can run the motors just fine. I will reccomend a 2nd power cap if you plan on racing it on large track. Also making sure that the sec can get some cool air will help keep it running cool.

Overall the Rx8 is the better choice, but the Pro does work just fine.

Thanks for the update....very much appreciated

Are these motors 2 or 4 pole?

2 pole

Arent the RX8 Truggy motors 4 pole?

Yes they are.

Anybody have any idea where to get a SC4X?

no one has them yet they missed another date:whip:

Not true, motors have been shipping out since 2 fridays ago. On other forums people have already gotten their shipping notices...
