Durango Previews New Models at Cactus Classic

Durango Previews New Models at Cactus Classic

Team Durango displayed their new lineup coming out in early April of 2015. The new Durango vehicles are only a tease and I wasn’t able to look under their hoods, but they are all new platforms and not just a new freshening up of older models. The DNX8 is their 1/8-scale nitro buggy and I was told has a new modular electronics unit, meaning you can leave the engine mounted and remove the electronics easily for maintenance. The DEX8 is the same buggy, but in an E-buggy (electric) version. There is also a DEX8T electric truggy and DESC10 1/10-scale short-course truck. Except for arms and some items like outdrives, the platforms share many parts for better convenience and parts availability.

The new Off-road vehicles from Team Durango were on display, but not yet ready for public viewing under the hood.

The DEX8 is the electric twin of the new DNX8 and shares most of the same features and parts.

The lineup wouldn't be complete without having a truggy and the DNX8T is part of that family.

Short-course fans will be happy to see the release of the new Team Durango 1/10-scale 4WD DESC10.
