The chassis transforms the Dex410 to a totally new car. Luckily enough this did suit my driving style. After balancing and setting up suspension following
this thread on rctech.net the DMX410 was no more the heavy aircraft carrier it felt sometimes but is very agile and has loads of steering. At least on the indoor carpet track we raced last weekend. I have not yet measured weight after the conversion, will post asap.
A nice side effect is the much better accessibility of the motor screws and no more removing of the spur gear for battery change.
