Tekin 1/8 Scale controller release date?

[phatmonk]

Dose the RX8 Combo come with presoldered motor wires and power supply wires?

Same question for me, Predoldered or not ?

Chances are this isnt being released until after the RCX show. Gotta show it before you blow it!
I honestly dont believe anything will come presoldered. Tekin doesnt do that because they believe that the user should have the ability to choose the length of the wires. They will most likely not have wires soldered to the can as well which is fine for me because the application I place the can will allow me how I want the wires attached and I can add my own quick dissconnect for the can. Everything I have ordered from tekin has come with all the hardware and good instructions, So there shouldnt be any worries of the hook up if your novice or only slightly educated at Speedos.

I got an email from Jim Campbell that shipments started this week and that they were packaging on Wed., so it should be very soon

Is it true that Imapaktrc.com has the combo's in stock, or is it for the preorder?

Nevermind when you click on it is says it is for a preorder, very misleading!

The unit does not come with presoldered connections. Care MUST be taken to get good solder joints on this unit!

The fan takes about 30 seconds to replace! It has an easy to use connector and only 4 screws and then slides out the top.

I also recomend leaving it out while you solder on your wires of choice.

Have you guys talked about how this thing mounts?

It is soo cool! It has built in screw holes at the bottom of the case allowing the esc to be screwed in from below.

Best mounting option so far.

Nice touch by Tekin. I cannot wait to try this system....my Revo conversion is almost done and needs a power plant. I will not be racing, but I look forward to the smoothness of this system

The deciding factor for me is how efficent the motors are, if they are as good or better than the Neu motors, I am all over it. Where are the motors made?

I would hope so. He said they shipped last week on rctech. So they better be here soon.

What's up anyone got one yet?

Just shipped today.

Check Rctech

I saw on the rctech forum that something was changed on the RX8. Would some one at Tekin please tell us what was modified, that was noticed after the SilverState race.
