My son and I are getting out of the hobby unfortunately. He is turning 16 and has no interest in RC currently and so I have no need to do the same. We are selling his Tekno ET48 2.2 first and I will try selling this on the forum first. It is a fully built RTR truggy in very good condition. He hardly used this, never abused it, and we equipped this truggy with robust protection that has preserved it’s condition well. The build thread can be located here. https://www.teknoforums.com/threads/new-to-forum-with-tekno-mt410-et48-2-2-et410-2.3434/#post-26663

Other relevant threads with pictures of this car and other Tekno cars yet to be listed. https://www.rctalk.com/forum/threads/my-losi-lmt-build-modification-thread.134536/#post-1510145

My son made a list of the most important parts included in the sale of the car below. He is asking for $750 for the kit including shipping (lower 48) and for an extra $35, I can add an SMC 5800 MaH LIHV 4s 15.2V battery. Note, this car could be run on 6s but we HIGHLY recommend that you NEVER do that. We have never run it on 6s, only 4s and many times 3s is plenty powerful enough.

ET48 2.2 1/8th 4WD Competition Electric Truggy Kit list price was for kit new was: $729.99

TQi 4-Ch 2.4 GHz transmitter + TQ receiver was: $100

FRAME PROTECTION (RPM bumper + rear skid plate + transparent frame protector) from RC Excitement was: $70

Custom made 3d printed body protector/reinforcement and custom aluminum shock tower protectors

Everything on this car is in great working order and has been regularly maintained.

For an extra $35, I can add an SMC 5800 MaH LIHV 4s 15.2V battery.

We are looking to sell this locally if possible. I will check back here daily. If you have any questions then please feel free to ask. Below are pictures of the car my son took this past weekend. Please keep in mind that there is a heavy clear chassis protection film attached to 100% of the bottom of this car aluminum chassis + the rear skid plate + the front bumper with skid plate so the scratches in the picture are mostly all on the film or protection plates and not the actual aluminum chassis. If you remove the protection film there will be almost no scratches. you are getting A ready to run race car set up with above average protection, a top line Pro-Modeler servo, and a very good 2050 kv motor and 150 amp ESC.

Thanks, John

If you have any interest in shipping it as a roller let me know please.
Hi there. I could possibly could do that, PM please with the details. Sorry for the late reply, just been very busy but I will monitor this message board more closely for your message.

Thanks,

John
 
Hi John, I’m in TOMBALL, tx 77377. I’m just interested in the roller. Let me know your price shipped here and maybe we can make it happen. Thank you.
 
Hi Lil Dylan, let me speak with my son and I can get back to you later today. I’m on the East coast so I believe there is a 3 hour difference. I can check the shipping to.

Thank you,

John

@Lil Dylan, I spoke with my son and he said he would sell the car as a roller so he would remove the motor, ESC, the servo, and the receiver. The shipping is expensive at $63 for Fedex home delivery for a roughly 9.2 lb box that is 22 x 15 x 13 and is insured to $450. He told me he would ship it to you for $485 shipped. If we ship it I will make sure it is packed well so it arrives in good shape.

Hi John, I'm still debating on whether to get it. I'm leaning towards not getting a Tekno. I'll let you know if anything changes. Thanks for your time.
 
Hi Dylan,

Thank you for letting me know. I will be away starting Saturday June 13th and will be returning Saturday night June 20th so there is no rush.

Thank you,

John
