Tekno RC NB48 2.0 1/8 Competition Off-Road Nitro Buggy Kit

Great kit! The instructions are amazing and easy to use. I've bought two of them because of the amazing quality and craftsmanship. Tekno is the only manufacturer I will run now.

There are a lot of brands and great buggys in 2019 and it was really hard to decide which one is the best choice so I must be honest I was very sceptical buying this one. It went together great but I had a little trouble with the front bumper don’t know if it was the right one in the box really weird but the rest of the car fit together like a glove.
Took it to my local and found out I made a great choice ! This thing is legit ! I’ve never driven the .4 cars but I can tell you from the first lap I felt totally comfortable with this chassis, a level of confidence I’ve never felt from a brand new car wit a box stock setup. Get one ! Tekno has perfected the Nb48 this time so much has changed it’s a completely different beast.

Tekno really did a great job this time. This kit is superior to anything I’ve ever built before. Parts are top notch quality. The kit couldn’t have gone together any smoother and drives better than any nitro buggy I’ve had before !

My first Tekno, and my first race kit. Coming to this after about 9 months of owning a new Losi nitro 8ight RTR (v. 2016/2017) and breaking the lower-spec diffs that the RTR comes with, shelling out for the race-spec parts from the TLR kit, and realizing I should've started with a race kit to begin with (which would've been a huge chunk of change up front). This Tekno steers much better and is delightfully 50/50 on its front/rear power split, unlike that 8ight which was essentially an older 2.0 or 3.0 in driveline layout that was very rear-biased.

I have only run this NB48 with the stock settings listed in the assembly instructions, with the exception of changing the toe and camber link lengths to get about 1 degree negative camber and eyeball 0 toe on the front. It drives really well given the minimal suspension changes I've made, so I'm excited to see how much better it gets as I start to put some effort into fine tuning those details. I've run a gallon through it including a new engine break in, several practice days, and my first race day, and it performed exceptionally well with plenty of crashes yet zero broken parts. Very satisfied with my purchase.

The one bit of info I sorta wish I could've found ahead of time is that certain servos won't work in the steering location without modification. I just got a ProTek 170SBL and found that its wiring, which can unplug from the servo itself, interferes with the plastic post nearby. The Power HD B4 servo I had in before didn't have this issue, presumably because it's like most servos in that it doesn't have a plug between the wiring and servo body. I cut the plastic post off and doubt it will cause any problems. I also elected to trim a bit of the battery cover (front box) where the wiring exits because it was straining the wiring of my new ProTek LiHV packs, and I didn't want those wires to break -- especially not that close to the battery.

100% easy and amazing kit...I am blown away. The quality far exceeded my expectations and this was a easy build for my first kit. The directions was spot on.

This car is wicked! My first kit I’ve ever built and Tekno killed it on instructions, also on YouTube there is bag by bag steps from Tyler Hooks. That guy is very helpful and a solid dude.

What a great car! Best price and best value. The manual is like a lego instructions manual, very clear and with a lot of usefull information. High quality plastics and metal parts. Comming from Kyosho, I love how they thought of every litte detail to make building and mantaining easier. It is also great to drive, I love it! Big Tekno fan now.

Still in the initial stages of assembly.I must say that the engineering of the parts is 100%.Everything fits beautifully and is of the highest level of quality.Just taking my time and enjoying the build process.Cant get too far because the engine I want is backordered and who knows when it will show up.

Great build quality. Perfect fit and finish. One suggestion would be to tap the holes in the plastics because it is so tough.

Switched from Xray after owning 2015, 2016 and 2018 XB8 and I'm really happy with this kit.
Out of the box setup with just a minor adjustment allowed me to get a 3rd in my first race with it. Still needs some adjustments as the stock setup is made for a higher grip track.

Build quality is awesome and the car just looks so good. I studied all platforms and the Tekno has at least 10+ unique features that I truly love.

Thanks Tekno for product with narrow pivots,as I was building the kit I couldn't thank Tekno enough for a the small details they put in to it,thanks thumbs up can't wait for new truggy.

Got this for Christmas this last year.
Awesome car. I can drive this thing all day.
I have 31 cars, all nitro and no doubt, this one's among my best.

I have to say that this was my first kit to build and it went together very EZ, it’s a great handling buggy, had to change a few settings from stock setup but it really responses to small changes. So far I really enjoy this buggy

First time trying the Tekno brand and I’m very impressed. Build went excellent and I was really impressed with the technology and innovation put into this platform. On the track the buggy feels ultra planted and a pure extension of yourself as the pilot. The changes you make on the buggy as subtle as they may seem transfer greatly. I highly recommend this buggy to anyone looking for an extremely competitive machine. A+
