Wouldn't a 12mm hex be better - like kyosho and touring cars?

Well I suppose its to match the new 4wd wheels & hex

I don't think the size of the hex makes a difference..

I hope it will be possible to mount the hexes on the "old" 410 too. I want same rims on my 2 and 4wd... Or the the opposite, use Ass rims on the 210.

The Old wheels and new hex wheels are 100% re-useable on the every car.

The Hex just replaces the old washer and cone spacer. The axle is the same.

Same story on the 210...

100% Backwards compatible.

Any idea when the new wheels and hexes will be released Adam?

That's wonderful news! Why did i even ask... Durango think of all details, as usual :)
Thanks for the info Adam!

To save me trawling through this thread, can someone confirm when these are going to be available??

Regards

Eary September is the official Team Durango date at the minute. They are waiting for various bits to arrive from there suppliers, once received they will issue a date for release.

As soon as I know I will post it on here.

I'm still taking pre-orders for this car and will release the spares list as soon as I receive it from TD.

Looks like I will have to get a whole new set of wheels and types now unless I can find a
Way to fit losi 22 wheels.

outstanding!!!

should be a great setup

Any photo's Adam, of cars with electrics installed?

Can someone explain what the motor / cover is for? I can see it may be useful for keeping dirt out etc but it may also make the motor overheat??

Or are there clever vents in the body to get air flowing directly onto the motor??

My guess is that the cover is an extension to the main body shell, and it is what converts the shell from rear to mid conversion, as the shell fits both configurations.

The bodyshell is a one fits all style shell.

If you are gonna run the car rear motored 100% of the time then you simply cut the body to it's full trim lines.

If you are likely to change the config then cut to the 2nd trim lines and use 1 of the 3 'cowls' included in the kit. In this config the body is cut the same, you just interchange the cowl..

I'll post some pics of my electrics install tonight when I get home...

"This product will be in stock on Monday, September 26, 2011"

I think there just being conservative over the release date. The date is still to be confirmed by TD UK.

Is that the date you will have bought and sold one by mikey?

Agreed re the date.

Nope as I'll be spending my money on other things such as a holiday. Hence why all my gear is gradually going. Leaving me with a Losi XXCR

If i have a holiday in the US mmm could purchase one there, who knows. At the end of the day it's only RC racing.

i hope its not the 26th :o

It'll be here when it's here. Season is over beyond 26th so makes no odds to me.
