Wow.. I thought they were already gone? That bites because I really loved there speed controls. I have a couple that are still in use on my older tamiya cars.

Well, I only have one Tekin item(my 112a), & honestly, I'm not sure if I want to sell it or not, you just never know when you might need an emergency backup.....:p

I knew they were gone and it sucks cause I always prefered them to novak. I own 4 of their esc currently. They are still my favorite esc with quantum's a close second.

I don't know but I still have my tekin G12CIII and it still performs excellant on my HPI bashing Mini.
I have always loved Tekin they made excellant products and it is a shall that they had to leave.

I'm surprised that no one from RCCA has said anything about this. Mr. Pond... Could you write an article about the life and death of TEKIN? I guess I better retire my G-12CIII. Grrr, time to switch completely over to LRP.
