You are comparing apples, oranges and pears. In order to do it right, you have to do the exact same electronics(including the batteries and tx)on all 3 builds.

5:50 - certified "you have to press the spacebar, or the lap will not count" moment.

I would like to see a Kyosho, and a TLR in this comparison. If you add the Xray, then you can compare the pillow ball cars and the c-hub cars separately (or all together). Awesome job overall. I really enjoy the videos.

Without same electronics it’s not really a challenge can’t learn much.

You've lost some serious weight! Good for you! 👍 Keep it up.

Please do a new 2026 comparison but this time run the same tires and electronics.

Just built my EB48 2.1 with hobbywing sensors setup. I can’t get over how smooth the power delivery is on the buggy. Excited to get mine on the track soon

The Tekno EB2.1 is my favorite of the 3. I have driven all of them this year. The Tekno simply gives me a lot of confidence when trying to hit those lap times over and over again. Beeing consistent is easy with this Buggy. It does have a huge amount of steering and you do need to adjust the steering amount (Rate in Transmitter. We have a very technical track with sharp turns, but i still turn down the steering to 80%. What i like most, is the on power control with the buggy. Going full throttle into fast corners with any problemes. Its made for fast laptimes for sure and it is still one of the most durable and strongest RC cars on the market.

I wish 1/10th scale manufacturers offered the same durable rear wings.

Great job love comparison vids like this. I'm bias toward AE but I like to see what's good with the other top brands.

Tekno's brushless conversions for losi cars were awesome. it used the front and rear ends, kept the slipper clutch and mechanical breaking...they were really fast, handled like a nitro and ran cooler because you weren't using the motor for braking...
