After building the new DEX8T 1/8th scale Truggy, I was really amazed at the over all build experience with the pre-assembled components. The new DESC10 is of the same mold, but in 1/10th scale ShortCourse fashion. the new Team Durango line of KIT's cut down the building time by at least 50% and the quality of parts and assembly are top quality.
With an all new design, the DESC10 is part of the new evolution of 4WD SCT's incorporating 1/8th scale components to drive up the durability scale. With an all new Motor mount design, capable of 550 or 1/8th scale motor, highly tunable with the included tuning blocks, ability to change a diff in right over a minute (less than a minute on the buggy!) and 17mm wheel hubs.
Check out my FaceBook page for up to the minute status on this and many other projects going on at the The RCNetwork:
