Show me your Durango's
 

Hi Guys,

Well mine is now built just waiting for my electrics & lipos to turn up.
Not got bodyshell done yet waiting for my man G to get it done so will update pics soon

The car was so easy to build wasnt any trouble at all.

But here are few pics anyway

omg!!! what are those purple washers on the servo!!!!!!

Very nice mate, i'm only kidding:thumbsup:

You don't really like your Durango do you? What with the Kyosho towel and things.

You will give it to me!

is there a reason you havent put the boots on either the drive shaft or shocks?

fast
 

it cos he drives that fast he dont want anything flapping around causing drag ! :drool:

" well fast between crashes anyhow :thumbsup:"

Lol cheers Bondy.

No i havent put them on cause i wont be running outdoor.
Plus boots on the shocks can sometimes restrict the travel
I've always done this with 1/8th rallyx, i dont use the boots until winter comes.

LOL well if i had Durango pit towel that wiould be thie instead lol :woot:

You can have Kyosho pit towel if you like :thumbsup:

Why wont you be running it outdoor??

A few pics.

Here is mine :woot: :

I've put on the one Collinson had at the F2's - will see how it goes and maybe change the shock setup a bit if needed (well, Skelding will be there - so I'll try get him to do it :lol:)

Looks awesome :)

Ill take this off your hands Andy when you move her on in about 6 weeks used twice :thumbsup: :woot:

Can you get it custom anodized first though ? ;)

Very nice Jimmy! I like alot! Are you going to do one of your reviews on the car?

nice install there Jim!!!
Rich, no problem mate, what colour do you want it:p:lol:

Jimmy, nice gear you got in there, to give you more clearance on the motor connections, you can solder the wires on the underside of the motor tabs, give you a few extra mm of clearance.

review coming soon yes:thumbsup:

Dcm, the photos make the tab look a lot closer to the shaft but really theres already enough room there.

just finished mine now ready to fit all electrics in

whens it for sale??

bump :thumbsup:

Red again of course :p :woot:

Im serious !!

:lol::lol: first dibs vinny;):thumbsup:

Hi Jimmy,

Have you run the Tekin RS before?
What do ppl think abut these
I've got one coming for my Durango too.

Looks like he bit the bullet and got him one. Nice setup Jimmy.
Tekin esc's are so darn smooth, you'll like it.

Just finished painting it and took it out into the garden for some action shots. I didn't get to make the stickers yet but I didnt want to miss the nice sun light. I went back to my purple review paint scheme, but maybe with a little less purple (by accident)

It was TOTALLY covered in dust inside and out after this as you can imagine - a quick blow with the compressor and it's as good as new! Rubber covers are ace!

Looks awesome Jim :wub - your not a bad hand with the airbrush !

Are you racing it at Worksop ?

hi all, i'm from hong kong~
this is mine DEX410

Haha, thanks rich, yeah I might be doing. We'll see :)
Batley tomorrow is its first outing.

Hey Derek, good choice for the ESC :thumbsup: What receiver are you using? I wish I was using a tiny Spektrum one, but the sanwa fits ok. I thought I might have to lay it on the side like you've done but it just fit with the ESC 90degrees round from how you have it.

There's actually a decent amount of room for electrics as long as you use your head and spend a bit of time on the install.

jimmy is your back garden the moon?

looks like a mrs oople colour scheme, is vicky star driving it?

Haha, no I lied about the Garden bit - we drove out to a disused quarry for the photos. I wish I had such a proving ground in my garden! haha

No this is the old review colours all my cars had - I wouldn't let vicky drive this wonderous lovely buggy - not unless it was around a track made of foam.:thumbsup:

I'm loving that shell!

Car don't look too shabby either!:thumbsup:

hi Jimmy, i'm using Futaba R603FS. you are right, it take me a bit of time to install all of these, it is really quite limit to choose the esc and receiver...
when i start to install the esc, i choose the LRP SXX TC, but i cannot manage the cable and it seem quite big becuase i'm using Futaba receiver....
anyway, thanks for your comment~

Jimmy.

Looking forward to giving that beautiful looking car of your a run round batley tomorrow :)

Andy.

Ok, a question for y'all.

I've just wired mine up and I'm finding space very limited.

Running a nosram istc and spectrum micro receiver. Now, I'm struggling for somewhere to mount the transponder (standard size).
I've currently had to stand the receiver up and mount the transponder onto its belly.
So the transponder is stood upright.
Do they still work like this?

I can see I'm going to lose some sleep over this one. lol

Don't lose too much sleep Tel! :thumbsup:

Martin Achter made a real carbon fibre case for his AMB PT - and he's got it sitting upright. He says he's had no problems with counting (we were actually discussing the cf case)


I've just printed some chrome stickers and stickered the car up now - man, this thing looks sexy as hell! I really want another one just to stick on a shelf :)

Bring me Chrome Tomorrow ;)
