I like the inserts to change suspension settings such as rear toe-in and front caster. You do not need to carry different hubs to make setting changes and when slop starts to develop, change the insert and not the whole hub.

actually the 210 can run 3 or 4 gears in either mid or rear motor.

I actually like the look of the body, and the fact you can use the same body with rear or mid-motored setups is a bonus

Proline or Jconcepts will probably have a body for it soon.

Doesn't look like there is Servo Saver on the DEX210?

Same with the Shumacher Cougar I have, had to install a Tamiya Servo Saver since I kept breaking gears on my low profile Savox servo (5 times before I decided to install the Servo Saver).

I'm wondering if the Tamiya Servo Saver will fit well on this vehicle? (I had to grind some of Saver to fit it under the Cougar Top plate) I guess I will know once I do the build on the DEX210.

I've snapped servo arm before gears never broke on me yet.

The 4 Gear rear motor option sounds very interesting for some the tracks here in GA with less than perfect traction.

The end points were always set on my Cougar before I used it, yet I still broke the servo gears on certain hits or crashes.

Almost NO one else breaks the servo gears on their Cougar... I'm thinking the low profile servo is weaker and is why I kept breaking the gears.

I would agree that the servo horn should strip before the gears breaking... but it NEVER did when I had the low profile servo.

Just saying... it wasn't due to USER error as you are implying.
