The Tekno EB48 2.0 is Tekno RC’s newest iteration of the EB48 1/8 E-buggy platform. Lots of changes were made from the EB48.4, like the 4mm chassis plate, longer suspension arms, narrow suspension pivot points, high volume differential housings and easy access to said differentials. The new chassis is wider and the weight has been shifted forward a bit, giving great stability. The EB48 2.0 has proven to be a durable, fast and very drivable 1/8 scale electric buggy platform, so lets build one and see for ourselves!
Spoiler alert, I lost all the photos of this thing built so here are some body-on shots with shoes mounted. Definitely a sharp looking buggy, thanks to our Team Driver Brian Phillips for painting us some lids! Pro-Line Hole Shot 2.0 in S3 compound mounted up on Velocity White wheels (white is faster) should be a great tire for the Tekin track as well as Eagle Hills. I also opted for the capped wheel nuts, these keep dirt out of your stub axles and protect them from damage on the ends. I highly recommend running this style of wheel nut, always!
