spares, DT-02.

[mejdmejd]

is that the most durable too?

[HairySteve]

Nope, the DF-03 is far tougher than the 02, almost to the point where you won't have to worry about getting spares for it There are a couple of good places on ebay and the net to get spares for the 03, hobby co are slowly getting parts in for them but sod's law says they won't have the bits you need

So the DF03, what turn motor can you run in a DF03 using everything standard (no slipper etc)?
as im not wanting to throw much money at it just buy a faster motor (already got decent esc,servos, etc)
cheers

I had a v2 element 19 turn in mine when it was pretty much bog standard at the srs regionals last year, and it was fine. The only thing to watch is the heat of the motor, it's somewhat enclosed at the back of the chassis, worth getting a set of heatsinks for it. Also if you're going to stick a hot motor in, get some cvd's for the front otherwise your dogbones might throw out when you corner at high speed.
