The V2 didn’t come with a body, but the obvious choice is the DESC410R, which is what I’m referring to. The DESC210R has a very distinctive looking body that in my opinion is just awesome.

You're right but the DESC410RV2 came with a body. Too many DESC410 models..

DESC410 CLEAR BODY SET (V2)(Includes DECALS & MASKS) from Team Durango, TD402029

I have the OG DESC410 body on my Tekno. It's so clunky and crappy but I like it.

question gents, and this could be an assembly issue.

with this exotek chassis +8mm, the motor plate does not make contact with the chassis itself. mid motor.

I didn't pay attention to this when I disassembled the two rollers i bought. But this seems peculiar to say the least. I have already 'braced' the diff case as its one of the mods I picked up here...... but wouldnt that space between the plate and chassis contribute to breaking the diff case itself?

is this space between chassis and plate normal? or am I missing something?

A small gap is normal. I wouldn't worry about it breaking if you have the v2 gear box and/or you have the ball stud mounts braced.

Lol agreed. It was an adventure trying to track down all the different body’s for this project. That’s why I tried to just stick with included kit body’s. What’s really strange is that the R designation depicts the full competition version for some models, but on the DESC410 and DEX410, it is more of a sport model. Ridiculous.

The gap is normal as Kremzeek said. And using the exotek flite motor plate, there is an even bigger gap lol. I have yet to bust a gearbox but I did get a chassis annihilated from a rear end hit.

I melted a gear box on my SC due to an outdrive bearing failing during a race.
