Default TRF511 vs DEX410

Guys, :-)

I am thinking of swaping a 410 for a 511. The thing is the 410 is ultra resposive, so was thinking the 511 would be less, more forgiving?

Anybody think differently?

Jimmy will have to tell you. As he has a DEx410.

Ive seen 511's go for $435 on some websites, but you have
to buy the body separatly. So it totals close to $500 us dollars.

I beileve the DEX410 is just a trend, if it didnt win the worlds
people wouldnt be buying it. None of the top usa drivers
were in attendance so it didnt really matter who won.

No Tebo, No Cavalari, No Maifield.

Werner,

I think you will find the 511 to be very easy to drive. The cars forgiving and likes to be pushed aswell, this makes for one fast 4wd!!!

Also agree with pidge...On smaller, thight tracks I drove fast with the durango. But on bigger tracks with high speed cornering, large jumps and so on, I actually drove faster and was more secure with my 501...and 511 should just be better

Ok sounds interesting.
So anyone know who has a TRFand would like to swop for a DEX410 ..?

The DEX410 is not bad, it's just the older you get the slower the reflexes become. :-(
