Durango got competition!
 

Very 1/8th scale!

Serpent ?

it says its an smb, well its etched with that all over anyways

It won't work - its too stiff.
Alltrough that center diff is nice.

I think that reads "s10b" - does that fit in with Serpent's current numbering?

Back end looks lot like a HB D4.

xray;)

Caster 4wd pro version

That smb is in the same font as durango!?!

Chinese 'copy'?

Actuallu it says S10B and if I had to make a wild quess about the manufacturer it will had to be one from the other side of the Atlantic. My quess would be either Serpent or O'Donnell :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Just told you what it is!!! Caster new 4wd PRO version

Yep it's the Caster alright...

In fairness Mark, you could compare it to any modern style 4wd buggy and it would have similarities. But, i really dont think its a D4 rip-off at all, far too many differences.

And besides, it IS a castor. Jimmy just confirmed it in the NEWS section. So, debate over i think.

Certainly has some elements that look familiar but its one of the most unique buggys doing the rounds at the moment - at least in this PRO spec it is - D4 isn't machined from a lump of alloy is it! Very interesting.

No CVD`s! Guess the final production car will have those.

That things looks the nuts, anyone any idea of release dates etc!?

Your Mr Tamiya Guy!!! :woot:

Silverstone tomorrow dave??? ;) should be a good day!

does look nice. how mucho ££££££

What's on at Silverstone tomorrow?

I'm registered blind and I can see the difference!!!

[QUOTE=mattybucks;402216]Well I have to say its hardly cutting edge. And a doubt Durango need to worry as the thread title :p

info
 

really like this.
few questions.
are the diffs geared or ball diffs
is the slipper reliable
and is it gonna be a "fair price" eg competative with other 4wds ( not durangos)

think i really want one

??? Eh! There are plenty of cars more expensive than a Durango 410r. I'd expect it to be around the same price personally.

if its same price as a 410r its mine.
but if its closer to the full spec rango might have to save a bit longer.or even just get the 410. its been proven and this is still new
really fancied a 410r though-until i seen this . geared diffs is the way to go for me i think
if this dont have em and still runs balls. then there is only one choice.
cmon castor more info please........
