    TLR, AE or Tekno - Which one and why?? 🤔

    • @robbryan3044
      @robbryan3044 3 года назад +2

      Not AE. At the same time, you forgot to include XRAY. Tekno is great...but, they only do 4WD (no 2WD, which kinda sucks). For dirt/clay, it's an even toss-up between TLR & Tekno. For astro/carpet, while TLR is a very good choice, XRAY is where it's at, as they REALLY 'know' astro/carpet.

    I’m partial to yellow, and Team Associated, as my first RC10 stadium truck kit had yellow wheels. Watching a young Brian Kinwald, tear up local SoCal tracks, was always a reminder......the weakest link...is usually the driver!

    • @TheRCNetwork

      It's weird - I always thought AE drivers had to use white wheels and TLR had to use yellow...then I saw Cavalieri (when he was with AE) running yellow (as he does now). I agree on the driver part!

    They might do a little bit of machining after work but those internal differs are definitely sintered powder metal.

    • @TheRCNetwork
      @TheRCNetwork  3 года назад

      I can't find anything that states otherwise...but typically you'll find sintered "pot metal" in $300 RTR's not $650 race buggies....When I stated that, I was referring to the bevel/pinions on the diffs....now the spider gears, not sure

    • @DoRC
      @DoRC 3 года назад

      @@TheRCNetwork oh okay yes the ring and pinion are definitely machine. You can tell sintered powdered metal from machine metal because powder metal parts will have rounded edges because they're coming out of a mold. CNC machine parts will have sharp corners.
      Also not all sintered parts are pot metal. Most powdered metal used in RC's today is actually steel and a lot of it's hardened. It's still not as good as CNC machine parts but it's a lot better than pot metal.

      How can I tell the difference between machined aluminum vs cast!? I buy a lot of hop up parts but never thought about this. I bet GPM is using cast. Do you think Hot Racing and Losi Racing aluminum parts are also cast. My M2C parts I believe are machined.

      You'll have to dig around and see what's available still for a 2.0. TLR is now on the 5.0 version. Pro-Line and JConcepts probably had bodies at one point....The TLR buggies are always wider bodied cars, so likely the Mugen/Team Associated bodies may fit as well
