870 is 28mm tall and a mm for the thickness of double sided tape = 29mm.

Measure the space under your shell to check.

850 is a really small speedo as brushless go so will fit pretty much anywhere, 870 is small footprint but taller, so you just have to check your sizes.

I measure a DEX210 with kit shell as having 30mm inside height from chassis to shell at the side pod.... so 870 should fit, but measure your own car to be sure.

850 will fit with plenty of room around.

Both are excellent speedos and will give you top notch performance. I've had several Dualskys and been very happy with them. For buggy the only difference I think you will notice is that the 870 has a two stage boost.
