Default Tekin

Is there a new range of motors and speedos coming out. I'm looking at getting an Rx8 como with a 1900 motor for my 1/8 and RCDisco haven't had them in stock for ages. If you look on the website theres loads on back order and have been for ages

I think you'll find the new range is for 1/10th, the Gen2 motors are just about to be released whilst the RSx esc is still being tested. Not sure how you can get the combo though, have you tried contacting RC Disco for an answer? It is in stock in the states so may be RC Disco just haven't ordered yet, not a very good situation though.

I'm not keen on ordering from the states for expensive stuff like this, would prefer to support my local shop, but if needs must.
