So I am thinking of picking up one of these for the carpet season. I apologize beforehand if these questions are pretty easy, but I figured why not ask all at once you know?
Quick background, coming from an AE B4 and Academy GV2 background as far as handling goes (B4 loads of steering, Academy steering close + lots of grip + durability), anyway, I like a car with a lot of steering
But I want to try something different than what AE is offering and hopefully better durability with metric hardware. Que the Durango.
So, for a guy like me, here is what I want to ask you guys:
- Does the durango use all metric hardware
- What exactly are the must have upgrades for the vehicle
- How is performance on indoor carpet or similar?
- Are shorty lipos drop in, or do you need special hardware to mount and use?
- Can you use other brand wheels, or only durango style wheels?
- What mid motor configuration is the best?
- Are the shocks *big bore*?
- Planning on running 8.5 mod or 17.5 blinky, what spurs should I pickup for this?
- Where does the car shine?
- Where does it suck?
Thank you before hand. this will be a big change for me as I pretty much always defaulted to an AE car when in doubt, and I have heard some advice against getting the dex210 but the other option is out there on price (RB6) and other than the JRXS Pros I picked up, I am having a hard time picking up a losi.
