Default Durga Hop ups

Hi All

my brother has just bought a Durga along with a titanium screw set. What other hop-ups are worth buying?

He will use it for local club races at Formby etc, and just ragging around. He will probably get a 5.5t ezrun in it as well to match my 501x

Any help appreciated

Cheers

Ti screw set is IMHO a waste of cash other than for the bling factor, a good steel screw set (a la Tony's Screws) is much better durability wise. On the above list I'd chuck the aluminium steering bridge and go for the centre one way over the front one, but again that is purely a personal preference.

Go careful here,

There is two different slipper clutches for the DB-01 chassis, the center one way will fit the DB01 Slipper Clutch Set #54018, but will not fit the DB01 Double Slipper Clutch Set #54061.

I bought the DB01 Double Slipper Clutch Set #54061 and TRF501X Center Shaft Double Slipper Clutch #84034 to go in my TRF501X WCE and found this slipper to be much better than the standard slipper fitted to the kit, a must I feel when using big modified or brushless motors, but like I said the center one way will not fit, I have to use the front one way instead.

hope this helps.
