Finally, some news on my next RC model!!! :lol:
I've already bought the engine for it (Russ, I'll need your advice on this engine ;) )
The public buying price (street price) for this revolutionary & top quality car is US$699 or 457Euros or
417UK pounds (this price excluded local sales taxes).
Here's some pics, but check the link and scroll down to the different posts of the buggy itself!! :banana:
http://www.team-durango.com/blog/Some of the STANDARD features of the DNX408 only from Team Durango
5mm thick hard anodised chassis & one of the narrowest, if not the narrowest on the market
Hard anodised alloy bulkheads front & rear (colour shown is pre-production; production will be hard anodised)
Gearbox cases front & rear are moulded & separate from the load bearing bulkheads; this gives minimal flex, best bearing alignment, best dirt shielding & easy removal of whole diff & CVD, just like the DEX410
15mm bore alloy shocks, PTFE coated ultra smooth & threaded. Alloy caps, alloy cartridge bottom & polished shock shafts; shocks are everything, so these are quality throughout
5mm hard anodised shock towers front & rear, as standard
Forward mounted engine (20mm further forward than some leading race buggies) this gives ideal weight distribution & room for everything to be mounted as low as possible. The RX pack goes under the rear CVD, which is another Team Durango first
One piece CNC machined engine mount with gold anodised memory plate is standard in the kit & is designed for maximum engine performance & easy maintenance with a marked-up chassis for easier engine alignment
Rear of the car has maximum ground clearance for smoothest landings so you can get the power down faster
Radio tray is mounted into the chassis to get centre of gravity as low as possible, but still only 5 screws to slide it out for easy maintenance
Lowest possible centre of gravity the servos and RX battery are laid down & mounted into the chassis. Engine & tank are also mounted as low as possible
Top quality, hard anodised suspension holders as standard front & rear with full range of precision moulded inserts for geometry changes
Angled down stop screws ensure maximum solidity & consistency, without adding weight
Lightened transmission parts are used throughout as standard
In board & out board CVD joints front & rear protected with rubber CVD boots
Centre mounted fuel tank inlet for easy access in any pit lane, with dirt guard as standard
Super low body to ensure maximum flow over the adjustable rear wing, while the rear wing sits low to again minimise CofG, while oversized end plates (ROAR legal) ensure stability & protect the engine head in crashes
We have built & tested all the leading cars & our plastics fit, finish & durability is second to none & better than many
Body, air filter, cultch, once piece CNC engine mount & wheels all included in the kit
Considering the spec of the car out-of-the-box; alloy suspension holders, alloy bulkheads, 5mm shock towers & 5mm chassis all hard anodised, plus black/gold alloy CNC engine mount, lightened transmission; this is a very fair price, something we have worked very hard on.
