New Durango DEX410V3

[sime46]

What's wrong with the kit arm? I've never broken one. I think if the saver is set correctly this should be fine. What breaks?

[Big G]

I never broke the kit arm either

[dibble34]

Do you have the R or the full fat? I have the R with the plastic steering parts and too have never broken one. A friend has the full fat version with the aluminium steering parts and broke the plastic servo saver all the time. I would assume there is less give in the full dex410 steering setup?

Mines a full spec. I have the truck too. The saver is totally different on the truck tho. Both bullet proof.

Dunno if anyone said it earlier, but the part the battery clip goes through looks like it bolts to the chassis on the v3 rather than attaching to the pods...

Yeah noticed that too , what's diff with the motor mount tho?

[captainlip]

and has anyone figured out why there is a difference in mid driveshaft lengths? I certainly hope durango dont make the current driveshafts obsolete so we have to make numerous upgrades

looks pimp in the gold the new one.

I have the 410, so im guessing the only worthwhile upgrade for me would be the wheel hexes,are these replacing the pins on the back i take it?
Oh & obviously i would need a new set of rims then too?
And the hd ball cups

I can't remember which thread/where I saw it, but Adam said some changes had been made in that area to address the popping out issue some drivers had experienced.

Looks as though the slipper outdrive is longer, which allows the prop shaft to sit deeper into into the outdrive.

You can carry on running your current prop shaft/sliiper outdrive, then when they wear out just upgrade to the new one. Personally ive never had a problem with the shaft popping out, but Durango have listened to customers feedback and implemented the change to make this area bullet proof.

It looks the same as the old version to me. I popped the front shaft out of the slipper outdrive and from the V3 pics, it still doesn't look like the shaft sits any deeper in the outdrive.

Love the look of the new body!

because the shaft is shorter also

weren't you saying in another thread that you expected more
"Im just suprised there isnt "more" "
"I was expecting to spend loads on upgrades!"

Now there is "more" and your complaining?

I'm confused

What does lengthening the outdrive and shortening the shaft accomplish?

ask durango, as yet the FULL details of the V3 are a little thin so we all have to wait a bit.
