This is the Team Durango DNX408 1/8 Competition Nitro Buggy Kit. As you would expect from Team Durango, precision, quality and performance are the hallmarks of the DNX408. The 1/8 scale nitro buggy class is the most demanding of any RC car racing class, so Team Durango has designed a car that is as strong as it is fast! Credited with some of the fastest laps on record at the IFMAR 2010 1/8 Buggy World Championships, the DNX408 has the ability to win and the features necessary to keep you at the front of the pack.

Team Durango’s DEX410 "2010 Spec" is arguably the highest-specification 1/10 scale RC racing buggy available today. Out-of-the-box, this car is the ultimate piece of kit for the serious, very serious and professional RC racer.  We have taken all of the best parts of our 2009 World Championship winning design and made some components even better than before, as well as ensuring that 2010 ROAR spec 25mm high Lipos sit in the car perfectly.

This is the Team Durango DESC410R 4wd Short Course Truck Kit. The DESC410R from Team Durango is a truly race-bred 4WD Short Course truck. Durango has taken the fastest elements from the ground-breaking DEX410 buggy, added some new trick designs and components, and created the most race-oriented SC truck available.

Big is Beautiful
The Big Bore shocks, which come as standard on the DESC410R, are not just big, they are FAT! These bad boys will keep your truck feeling glued to the track, and when you're landing hard and heavy off monster jumps, they'll absorb all the energy, power, and punishment you can throw at them, time and time again.

550 Motors
4WD SC racing is taking electric racing to a new level. These trucks have to be tough, strong and hard to survive. They need lots of power to get rolling and lots of power to stop. The DESC410R has been designed around 550 sized brushless motors. 4WD Short Course racing needs 550 motors - 540 just doesn't cut it any more. Durango has designed the DESC410 truck so that the longer 550 motor sits with perfect weight balance in the super-tough chassis.

Its race time...Aluminum Sandwich Anyone?
Short Course racing trucks need a beefed-up chassis. The chassis on the DESC410R is a 2.5mm thick aluminum plate strengthened with 2.0mm thick aluminum side rails. Sandwiched between the aluminum are three-part composite side-rail walls. The combination of precise design and high-quality materials means that the torsional strength of the DESC410R is second to none.

Slipper Clutch. Differential in Disguise
Because so much power and torque from the 550 motors is being delivered to the Team Durango race-winning, shaft-driven, gear-diff drivetrain, Durango designers have created a slipper clutch which can be transformed into an oil-filled differential. Simply by removing the center diff locker nut and adding diff gears (available separately), you can control how power is delivered to the drivetrain by fine-tuning the slipper clutch and center diff.
