Senton Senton 6s... Discontinued?

[Gill2984]

Where is the Senton v4?!? It’s the best SCT on the planet. Did arrma give it the Axe?

Anyone know details?

Slick2500 said over on the other thread;

“The Horizon Hobbies rep on bookface said it is not being discontinued, it is not in the new manual because something about it being special or something.”

So hopefully this is correct..

Im gonna hold out another month or two before getting a V3 6S senton and see what happens..

They cant seriously discontinue the best SCT in the world can they?.. it would be an absolutely stupid business decision..

Be great to get some clarity on it but i guess that ruins all the fun of dropping any suprises if thats what they intend to do..

Maybe, just maybe it might be replaced with a 6th scale SCT to compete against the Losi SBR. so many requests on Youtube asking for a 1/5 or 1/6. however, unless there are plans to release more than a single 1/6 model, it wouldnt make sense to make spare parts since it obviously cannot share parts with 1/8 models. But I know nothing.

 

[Gill2984]

For example, if they do totally revamp the Senton. Do you think it will still be easy to find spare parts. I currently bought a V3 less than a month ago.

 

[Lingerfelter6]

There are parts available for discontinued models like the Nero, so i wouldnt be too worried.

Waiting patiently....

 

[helly604]

when can i expect the senton v4 release ??? i read somewhere may 10th ???

 

[crankestein]

Somewhere

I read somewhere Traxxas is buying Horizon Hobby and relocating its production line to The Upper Guinea Islands.

They still debating if calling the new one SenTraxon.

If you look at HH website , it says for the Senton 6s " no longer available " .

only hearsay from lhs but there is not going to be a senton 6s? i think due to the horizon hobby no longer available.

The SCT market is dead... like real dead so because many don’t buy SCTS makes no sense to sell them

 

[jondilly1974]

I would think the Mohave killed it ??‍

 

[DoNoHarm]

Oh well. At least us senton owners have one. Could be worse... don’t get your heads down- like, what if we couldn’t have one.

 

[jondilly1974]

My LHS probably still has one if anyone is interested. It’s been sitting there all year.

I would like to see the rest of the 8s line up already. I know they didn't spend all that money in tooling parts and r&d for just one vehicle. Maybe a senton 8s is in the works?

Exactly my point

I highly doubt they will make a Senton 8S. I truly believe the Mojave is the Senton replacement.

Yeah I completely agree. I feel a new model is in the works as well. Was at the lhs yesterday and was looking at all the 8s parts . That center diff is easily a couple pounds man lol. What a beast of a diff.

 

[Branson_Basher]

Is SCT racing still popular?

If the racing scene is dying out then only bashers are buying SCT and if that's the case a Mojave makes the most sense from a marketing standpoint. Just my wild guess...
