Tekin RX8 first impression - 05.29.2009, 02:20 AM

Received my RX8 combo today and my first impression after looking at it closely were good. I got the 1550kv 4038 motor and it looks nice in person. However upon closer inspection I noticed a dimple in between the fins. It seems to have happend during machining of the motor can. The ESC case has a nearly perfect fit and held well together with two different lenght screws. Yea I opened it to see what it's made out off. I got nude shots if anyone is interested. I added additional caps with transorbs.
Anyways, I plugged the sucker up and hooked it up in my GTP with a 6L hacker on 6s1p A123. Just testing it on my garage floor was impressive. I see blown diffs once again in my near future. I'm using default settings for now. I'll write a whole review later on.
