Tekin 1/8 Scale controller release date?

[mwry13]

I'd imagin the prices of the Tekin Controller and Castle MMM to be around the same at launch because isnt the Castle MMM goin to come with a Neu motor (1515 1y is the rumor)?? and since i already have a Neu 1515 1y/f i dont mind spending for the best speed control (tekin) if there going to be better supported, unlike MGM speedos. i hear some horrible stories on how long it took for a MGM speed control to be serviced.

The Tekin ESC will cost more than the CC. Most likely, it will be better too. No corners are cut at Tekin.

What makes Tekin better than CC?

Don't know where you heard that rumour it is a 1515 size motor, but Patrick said here that it wasn't a authentic Neu motor, and in fact has some significant differences. I also suspect that with the dramatic price difference, the Castle Neu motor's will be machine wind not hand wind.

The Rx8 housing mold is being cut currently right here in Idaho. It takes weeks to cut a good mold due to very small cutters and delicate work.

A pre-production run of T8 motors is due in next week.

A preproduction run of circuit boards should be done this month.

The packaging designs are just being finalized and look sweet.

We are shooting for release by Feb 26. Its what I want for my birthday!

The proto speedos and motors continue to work excellent for us. We have no major technical issues to deal with and just have to build them.

Any way to get on a "preorder" list?

What motor KV will you be offering to start with? Hopefully more than just one.

I'm interested to get a whole package, (ESC and motor) but need something properly suited for a buggy on 5s.
