Stormbringer Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 looking really good mate 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertberr Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Looks amazing - really liking that body in that single colour way, which is odd as I've looked at that body before on PL site & WS, MS etc, and always thought the strange green/silver/blue thing going on made the body look quite odd. This looks pukka. In fact the whole rig is just superb imo. I know they're pricey, but they seem to just ooze quality imo - there are other RC's out there similarly pricey, but lacking that really well 'engineered' look. I have an SCT410 in my basket at this very moment, really trying very hard to not press the button... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post .AJ. Posted February 28, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 28, 2021 Finally took this out for a quick bash It’s a beast, fast nimble and handles like a dream, i ran it for about 35mins with a Corally Lihv 6500mah 4s before my tx batteries ran out, Just checked and the lipo and it’s at about 3.7 per cell so I would have got another 5 mins 👍 No damage apart from the body as far as I can see, one of the rear thumb screws pulled through the body and the rear panel is all cracked and smashed.... so a unbreakable body is definitely on the cards some time soon 👍 Sorry no vids, I forgot my tripod 🙊 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share Posted February 28, 2021 Been looking at unbreakable bodies and for nearly £70 they look terrible, looks like a potato when you microwave it too much 🤣🤣🤣 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bix Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 This thread makes me miss my MT410 massively 🙈 such a lovely handling thing and tougher than most 1/8 monster trucks even out the box, mine was similar spec to yours both electronics and M2C parts wise. The only times I did break I was taking the tbh 😂 Enjoy it mate and please don’t sell it soon as I might have to buy it 😉 Oh and I had to bite the bullet and get an unbreakable shell too, looks awful but saves constantly repairing or replacing lexan bodies every few run. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertberr Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Proline did some 'bash armor' shells, non paintable but will take stickers, but there's not much of a range, and the only MT option was a tiny one for stampede etc. Shame, would have been a nice, but pricey option in 325mm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stimpy Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Just catching up, glad you finally got to drive the bugger! I also went with that body and it didn't last long. Settled on a Russian C10 copy in the end which I decorated with some paint pens which seem to hold for a while - Proline thumb screws too... Actually managed to take mine out today whilst the boy was killing my 4S Outcast.. I just love the handling of these rigs, hard to believe they are monster trucks .. Mines on 6S backflips so yours should handle even tighter on 4S versions 👍 Should sort a build thread really some time.... Enjoy! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share Posted February 28, 2021 Cheers mate, I’m going to batter this shell for while and then go for a Russian one, ive got my show and shine C10 for when I want it to look pretty on the shelf though 😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbulsara Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Very nice read. I haven’t taken mine out yet this year . Yours looks insane with all the upgrades. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share Posted February 28, 2021 Thanks, I’m pretty much done with the build for now. I wouldn’t mind getting some skid plates to help protect the expensive chassis, but the M Line ones I wanted I can’t get now, because the company in Germany have stopped shipping to the UK 😕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share Posted February 28, 2021 These https://www.modellbau-metz.com/rc-modellbau/mline-alutuning-7075-cnc-skidplate-set-tekno-mt410 I’ll ask them in a couple months if they can ship to the uk again.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
