hopeully, not whilst the car is in motion :woot:

why is everyone bothered about getting the diff out?

my B44 diff never moved from where it was put when the car was bolted together, and that didn't even have outdrive boots!

You normally need to maintain the diffs sometime... and changing between one-way and diff in the front is also a good tuning aid.

DCM 30-01-2009 10:58 AM

it's a fetish.... got to argue over undescribable parts of blurry pics of a yet to be released car.... :woot:

Maybe there will be unknown tuning options you'd like to play with? :)

diff oils and stuff... yes please - 8th scale baby! :woot:

It seems to be the same layout as previous protos. I wonder how it will handle with Lipos. :confused:

Nice to see this car come back! Parts (arms, chassis) look like finished, production parts. Nice! SHY's dreams come true :p:D

Dito, if the price is right maybe I can be persuaded to get one.

SHY 30-01-2009 11:38 AM

LOL! I just hope the chassis will stay slim, and not wider at the front like the S500 proto...

After building the A-1 the diff housing design really is the most innovative solution on the car IMHO. My bet is all cars will have adopted this in 10 years...

Lee 30-01-2009 12:25 PM

Man those guys at Aero will be pissed, another copy :woot:

SHY 30-01-2009 01:56 PM

As I see it Aero copied Durango. And Serpent made the S500 proto, which is also basically a Durango copy. The latter one in collaboration with Strenge whilst the first one created some controversy. In any case there's no copyright so anyone who likes can copy as much as they want! :)

The Durango 2005 has the easiest diff access i have ever seen .... just 2 screws and they slide out on like a drawer with no performance comprimised for ease of access...if you know what i meen.
i am sure this car has no niggly awkward bits just pure lovaleyness:drool:

mes 30-01-2009 05:51 PM

Nice one!
I remember drooling about it about exactly one year ago when it was called the S500...;)
I'm just wondering if it will be released this time!

jimmy 30-01-2009 05:58 PM

I'm sure it will, these guys know what they're doing and it should be a winner.

Rebelrc 30-01-2009 06:00 PM

ace old diff access
my poor car looks like it needs some tlc:)

stegger 30-01-2009 06:17 PM

After seeing the pic's, i think i've just dribbled in my pants:blush::blush::blush::wub

Your diff did sort of move CD:blush: :cry: i did the rear gears at the juniors.. just to give your dad something to do obviously :woot:

Still got the stripped gears :wub

nitrokillah 31-01-2009 01:02 AM

Hopfully it'll come out this time arround.

Hope the car still looks the same .

Can wait .
