The original Ten4 was a collaboration between mk-Zero and GoMachV on RC10Talk in early 2015. I still go by GoMachV on the RC10Talk forum. The Ten4 was the answer to MIP not rereleasing their popular 4wd conversion kit. After many months of development we were able to release a few printed parts, custom towers, and set of pulleys and shafts to allow others to build this tribute car.
The Ten4 printed parts have been available since 2015, as have the shock towers. The problem has been sourcing the Team Associated parts as well as the lack of proper pulleys and idlers. After the last refusal of MIP to rerelease their conversion, and with Team Associated committed to releasing vintage parts in 2024, I decided to rework the old design a bit. The new Ten4.1 pulleys (compatible with the original ten4) have a more "legendary" look, and are 18t to both match the MIP and allow more belt wrap. This will allow the belt to be ran slightly looser, for less friction. Pulley and idler kits are expected in early July 2024. They are the first piece in the new Ten4.1.
Here is a shot of our new front case. These will be 3d printed initially, but made from PA12 for more durability. The added bonus- they cost CONSIDERABLY less than the Ten4 version on Shapeways. We are working towards molding these eventually, but it will be quite a while before that happens. Use these as a very durable placeholder until the molded parts are done.
This is just a prototype but it represents the direction we are headed. Simple, effective- and only one specialty part. By using kyosho compatible hub carriers we will be able to reduce the printed (and eventually molded) parts and improve durability at the same time.
As parts become available we will list them in our web store. Parts will NOT be released all at the same time. If you are looking to build one as soon as possible, you will want to watch for updates and purchase as they are listed. Only once all the parts are finalized will we make kits available.
Remember also that if you want one immediately you could choose to use the older shapeways parts and source the older AE parts.
