mike you have already sold at least 4 kits, so get cracking;D;D;D;D
well you can make that 5. bought mine 2 weeks ago and as soon as it came out of the box i took all the nitro stuff out. Can't wait for the e-kit to come out!
If all you have are hot pink spur gears I'll take one, my Ten is ready to roll.
I believe he does have some hot pink spurs ready, but they also have small butterfly and flower designs on them. I think he anticipated on the Ten being popular with the female crowd...
Brian, what do you estimate the top speed is on your truck with your setup? I have decided to base my conversion on yours. I am new to this and I want to get it right the first time around. The only thing I may change is the Tekin RX8 combo due to cost (any suggestions for a cheaper alternative?) or is it basically you get what you pay for. I hope you don't mind.
I tried your Top Speed Calculator but there was too many values that I did not know the answers to.
Hmm - my stock tires are 4.5" tall and I figure they are good for at least .1" ballooning. I suspect the actual speed with your setup(BrianG) - which happens to be the same as mine - will be around 40mph.
Spurs(white - sorry I couldn't find pink with flowers) won't be ready until Saturday, so Good Friday can be reinstated.

Wow!! I beat moller to the first post after mike anouncement of when the kit will be ready!!!!!....(jk bro ;)...anyways...great news mike!!! And for all of you ten-t owners....what diff fluids are you using??? I just switches mine to 5k in rear and 7k in front...planning 10k in center.....planning on 2650kv on 4s or 3s....
I'm using whatever it came with, but I plan to use 100k in the center with 5k rear and 7k front. BTW: 100k is not a typo.
A 2650kv motor on 4s would be ballistic unless you gear down a lot. 3s would be more driveable. I ran for 30 minutes straight on a 5Ah 4s pack with my Tekin 1900kv (buggy) system (geared 52/20) at the track tonight.
100K....you looking to do standing back flips brian????...lol....anyways...im using a 2650kv motor b/c i got a great deal on a MMM combo...i'm planning on gearing down...looking for about 40mph on the track....or maybe i'll sell this motor and get a lower KV one.....would 3s be ok to run the ten-t on a 2650kv motor????
Lol, not looking for backflips, I just don't like the front tires to unload and look like pizza cutters on hard acceleration. I might go down to 50k.
I just remeasured the tires and they are 4.25". Maybe the foam compressed a little?
Anyway, on 4s, that 2650 motor geared 52/16 will get you 41mph. On 3s, you'll need to adjust gearing to 52/21 to get the same speed. It's a bit steep on the rollout, but should still be ok.
Can't wait to give the other 10th scalers some brushless a$$ kicking!
found these 17mm adapters in my random parts box that fit the ten-t's axles perfectly....just needed some washers to keep the wheels from backing out.....and..these adapters should fit as well
