@@RyanHarrisRC im glad I have family there along side with you guys and I'm happy to hear your all okay best of wishes and prayers for the next one too I heard there was a third one coming im not 100% on when it will hit though
Also I forgot to ask what is your ride height at when ur running the 73mm rear springs I bought them but I haven't put them on yet well I test fitted them but I didn't like the fact that the spring adjustment on the shock was all the down to get my ride height
Just drove a new eb48 2.2 today. Drove my 2.1 all day and was about to head home and a friend told me to take a few laps with his 2.2 he just built. 3rd lap I set the best lap of the day. 5th or 6th lap I got into all time track record territory. The thing is so planted and really does just do whatever you want it to do. In the words of tiger king. “I’ll never financially recover from this” 😂
Amazing video man! Thank you so much for the shoutout. Have been watching you since I started rc 6 years ago. Tekno 2.2 platforms do just work right out of the box it’s incredible! Stoked to see you driving these vehicles! Glad you guys dodged the hurricane.
This is what happens when you have Ryan Maifield helping you change your car. This car feels a lot like the TLR 8ight 4.0. And that also was a car Maifield had a lot to do with. Thank you Ryan Maifield!!
I was super excited when the thumbnail showed up on my fyp! It was great racing with you! More time with it and she will be even more dialed! Till the next one!
Firstly, glad to hear that you and your wife have come out the other side of the hurricane safe and well. Awesome content as always. I think some has said it already but you should be doing adverts for Tekno or at least be getting a commission from them for all the sales you have probably generated since your nitro review video of their car came out! Even with a hurricane sppeding towards you, your sense of humor in the intro and outro had me in stitches. It's funny my first 1/8th nitro buggy was the NB48.4 and I then upgraded to a NB48 2.0, I also picked a EB48 2.0 Still I could never quite get it to do what I wanted in the corners (Probably more to do with my lack of knowledge about car setup than the car) and after about 18 months I moved to Mugen which I currently drive and have done so for about the same amount of time and in my head and on the track I think pillow-ball cars suit my driving style more but I gotta say after watching this and your last video covering the NB and EB 48 2.2 I'm now wondering if I jumped ship too soon, and you making wonder if I should come back to the Tekno Takeover???? Keep up the great content.
just bought one of these looking forward to building her up and having a rip. Chuffed it has the Ryan Harris seal of approval 😄glad you and wife are safe
Great video on the EB482.2, as always I find your videos to be very helpful. I have a question about the way you have your VRP 20 hole pistons set up. Which upper colored washers are you using in front and rear? I have some of the VRP pistons ordered and want to set mine up like yours .
Thanks for the videos. I hope you and yours are all well and good with the weather happening, and I hope you all get to race more soon. Im gearing up for winter here in Idaho, but I'm looking forward to next season and some 2.2 action, hopefully. It's definitely the only kit on my radar right now. Cheers
Just saw the shout out too lol. Kind of a spur of the moment deal. Didn’t mean to take the inside and shove you into the pothole, but I also didn’t want to cut over and take you out lol!
@RyanHarrisRC I love this video especially the blow by blow of the race action. I liked it so much I went and bought myself an EB48 2.2! Thanks for the links. I did have one question as I know in previous videos you've mentioned that when trying to adopt a setup from another driver to see if it works for you, staying as close to the exact numbers is pretty important as all changes can alter the results. So I adopted your build sheet, thanks for that, but I noticed in your video the D block pill installed in your car is not what the build sheet shows? The sheet shows it as center dot for a rear toes of 2.5 degrees where as you car has the .5 outward and down installed. I'm curious if that is simply a missed check mark on the sheet, or if you changed that and or any other settings and forgot to update the sheet for the as built plan? Thanks again and I'm looking forward to giving this buggy a drive very soon.
If you have not already I would try the car with no center or rear chassis brace (always leave the front in). Nitro leave them all in, but the ebuggy removing them has been a tuning option for years for more grip.
Those sway bars used to be captured in bearings on the 2.1. I can't remember where I saw it but some folks (myself included) flipped them around and ran them "uncaptured", introducing the slop. Interesting to see it's built that way kit stock now.
Great review and video,the e buggy is something I'm tempted with buggy for next summer here in the uk as I've not tried 1/8th racing. I still own and run now and then a 1/10th eb410.2 still love that buggy .wish they would develop some new 1/10th stuff.
I love mine, fantastic out of the box. Yours looks a little loose in the rear to me... our track is dry and a bit blown out and it handled everything like a champ, front and rear firmly planted. I dont believe Ryan is "pumping up tekno', just telling his experiences. A new bar has been set!
I was determined to get the car to rotate super fast, so I took out all the rear toe 😅 I would not recommend it, very situational. The setup sheet above is how I prefer it to be!
Can you say something about the 3DPrinted Sideguards? how are they lasting? what Material is it? Glad you made it through the hurricane! Have fun racing
I just finished a new xray 1/8 buggy this week. Purely because I race X-ray for 1/10 Offroad and onroad but also because I hate the narrow chassis. If I would have known you could run those wide guards and use a wide body I totally would have done that.

Hey Ryan my name is Adam, I ordered the R1 esc and I’m wondering what you access the esc functions? My hobbywing programmer doesn’t work on it. Thanks brother
Great video. A few errors in your setup sheet (visible in the video): You are running both middle and rear chassis braces. The front shock standoff is not +4 (no +4 available in the new style), probably is +2. The center diff case is the "B" case that's included in the EB48 2.2 kit, not the "C" case included in the NB48 2.2 kit. Also, have you explained in a previous video how you express droop? It seems like most of the world is now using the "axle centerline relative to bottom of chassis" way of doing it.
Always wondered about if you could get a wide body for the Teckno… the skinny body looks horrid and tge Truggy… sehhhs forget about it. Nice vid Ryan 👍
Looking for some help… What do you use to mount your ESC and receiver? Gorilla double sided tape? Shoe goo? Or something else? I’m not sure what to use or what product would work best.
Any chance you could give us some more info on those VRP 20 Hole pistons you've listed in your setup sheets? I get they have various sized holes in one piston, but do you adjust them to use which ever selection of holes or does it utilize all 20 holes at once? Keep doing what you're doing, if Tekno need a guy to promote their stuff its you 👌
From the man who flipped back and forth between AE and Losi now telling us that Tekno is the way lol Glad you and your fam are safe. Keep up the great vids. Cheers!
I'm stationed at FT. Stewart GA and come down to Florida to race with my brother are there any other tracks around worth checking out? We ran at this track like 4 weeks ago when it rained and was super muddy, We have also ran at s&s.
Can we get a AE b4.1 vs tekno 2.2 video? The tekno seems to just take the potholes. For me if it's short track I get better times with pillow ball cars.
I feel like it was just a few months ago I said hey try tekno shocks. I see you just went with the whole car lol. yeah teknos are sweet I bash one on 6s . The racers at ricks hobby farm in new Richmond Wisconsin can give you some pointers.
This buggy is a specimen of greatness no doubt. However this is prime example of why my hopes of racing went out the window. $700 kit that will need at least another $300 stops me in my tracks Everytime. Bashing is for me. I get a whole lot more to work with with a grand.
Used race buggies are a great option, a lot of racers want the latest and greatest but older kits can still be just as quick or quicker. I got my ET48 2.0 used fully loaded with good electronics for under 500 and my RC8b3.2e for 400!
Of course it has more top end, it's a more powerful motor. But it would be way too much for the track he's driving on. Bigger isn't always faster on the track
@@codyireland9432 I run the 2250 on a track about that size. It’s not that it’s more powerful, it has a different power band than the 1900. It’s easier to drive than the 1900
The wife and I made it through the hurricane storms! Thank you everyone for your kind words and support. Can't wait to race this thing some more!

Crazy that TEKNO started as conversion kits for other buggy brands.
Good times Ryan!!! Definitely learned from that one lol, Great vid👍
Raced ole Ben Burtle in Omaha years ago. Good dude
I just got my 2.2 today. Looking forward to getting it together. And on the track. My first 8th e bug.
Nice
Happy to see my Ultima in your video
This video makes me smile from ear to ear! I have an older buggy, the EB48.4 and the ET48 2.0, LOVE both of them!! #teamteknotakeover
just bought one of these looking forward to building her up and having a rip. Chuffed it has the Ryan Harris seal of approval 😄glad you and wife are safe
It's mighty close if not the best car. Great T-shirt by the way.
as a new racer I absolutely love this stuff !!!! thank you for breaking this down we love this!!!!!!
I have a buggie and truggie from them and they are absolutely the baddest cars Ive ever owned.

Bout time Ryan lol I told you it was the best of the best!!!
the 2.0 was good out of the box...the 2.1 was even better...just hope they get the truggy out soon enough
use this as the "I bought it because of ryan button"
I just got a vision racing for the TLR can you do a video about pros and cons and setting it up
Ryan, how would you compare to the RC8B4e or 4.1e. What prompted the change?
Hunter king might be more consistent with the teknos
I love mine, fantastic out of the box. Yours looks a little loose in the rear to me... our track is dry and a bit blown out and it handled everything like a champ, front and rear firmly planted.
I dont believe Ryan is "pumping up tekno', just telling his experiences. A new bar has been set!

did you drill out your VRP pistons if so what did you # ? 😎

If you want to control the rust just use Perma Blue on your steel parts, works great!
Ryan, what wide body is that and how can i get the wide plastic rails?
Always wondered about if you could get a wide body for the Teckno… the skinny body looks horrid and tge Truggy… sehhhs forget about it.
Nice vid Ryan 👍
Survive Milton okay? We got hit hard in Tampa. Ever run at the NPR track?
When u are talking about the sharp edges on the track,same principle about a rut grabbing your front tire on a dirtbike?thanks
TEKNO #1 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Yea converted mine to a 2.2 and it was unstoppable

Keep doing what you're doing, if Tekno need a guy to promote their stuff its you 👌
I’ve used them in just about every car in Fl. Super nice through bumps and landings
Are you done riding moto now? Haven’t seen any vids on the other channel
Tekno… of the people for the people.
Ryan, what body shell are you running with those wide side gaurds?
Damn. I've watched a million of your videos over the years. Would be nice if you responded to viewers questions. Just saying.
From the man who flipped back and forth between AE and Losi now telling us that Tekno is the way lol Glad you and your fam are safe. Keep up the great vids. Cheers!
Hey Ryan, So the Ebuggy runs yellow shocks and the nitro is Orange? Is that correct? For the mod you do?
Are u gona do a build and race review on the Tekno sct410 2.0?
It’s not necessary. There is no alternative. So it’s automatically the best option for a SCT 4wd.
@@LyroLife ok just want To se a good driver do a review for ones and do a race with it🤣
@ryanharrisrc I used to say the same about the 1900kv. Until I used a 2200kv.. absolute game changer, maybe you neeed to do the aame
Do you have a link to the esc ?
How is part support for these buggies? My fear is with all the new versions that I’ll never be able to find parts a few years after I own it
What washers are you using in the front and rear?
I found some on Amazon there coned m3 washers lol
I'm stationed at FT. Stewart GA and come down to Florida to race with my brother are there any other tracks around worth checking out? We ran at this track like 4 weeks ago when it rained and was super muddy, We have also ran at s&s.

U said some cars need to be driven hard for them to work ..are u talking about team associated rc8b4.1

how about Mugen ? what do u think
I feel like it was just a few months ago I said hey try tekno shocks. I see you just went with the whole car lol. yeah teknos are sweet I bash one on 6s . The racers at ricks hobby farm in new Richmond Wisconsin can give you some pointers.
who did your paint job?
wish i had a track in the area, nothing
so a question that keeps reoccurring in my mind.... are gyro's allowed in competition? or is that per basis? or just no a thing?
I've never heard of gyros being allowed in any racing
Standard battery o shorty?
What body shell is that on the car
why not the R1 battery?
They never sent me one 😢
1 question - who does your vacuuming?
unofficially, my dogs
What tires and compound
Rawspeed Super soft Mach Ones!
Are you not driving for Kyosho anymore ?
I’ve never owned a Kyosho in my life ?
@@RyanHarrisRC sorry wrong Ryan, was thinking of Ryan Lutz.
😂
But will you answer which buggy you like better? Associated or Tekno
I think both are good cars for different driving styles. Hard and aggressive suits the pivot ball cars, calm and precise suits the c hub cars.
