Carbon Chassis on DEX410
 

Hey Guys,

I'm looking to use a carbon chassis on my Dex410 but i dont know how good the handling can be.

I plan to run on med grip with loose soil.

I dont know what is the best setup on this surface, :

Alu side pod+carbon chassis...
Plastic side+carbon or
Plastic side + alu chassis

What are your suggestion ?

Plastic sides alu chassis
alu sides carbon chassis

:thumbsup:

Atomic carbon 410ultra!

Yeah thanks, but i want some advice from people try the setup...

What is the benefit ?

410 Utra hummm well... need more information about...

there is no benefit, its just Kudos

There is a down side, as its lighter you'd need to start adding weights here and there.

you wouldn't need to add weights here and there. you make it sound like it's essential to do so... the DEX410 is rarely under 1700g anyway so a good 100g above the min weight for 4wd 10th BRCA events.

Sure you'd shave a few grams off it's weight, but not to the point where you'd' ned to start putting it back on

I must say I like my Ultra.

Being a crap driver I normally like a lot of weight in my cars to provide a bit more stability. However, with the Ultra I started with a lot of extra weight and I have gradually reduced this to zero with the car getting better each time. It currently weighs in at 1675g.

there is also the carbon chassis here.http://www.p-dubracing.co.uk/8-racing.php.its the one made by martin achter

Thats cheap as chips! :thumbsup:

:cool::wub;)

Has any one seen one of these ? Im sure a lad I know had one, the counter sinks were shocking , they were too big and the screws didn't fit in properly. May have been different one I'm sure it was an '8' racing one tho .

Did tresery do one too ?

same just red! im just going to buy a new chassis instead of pointless carbon

Hi,

I'm running P-DubRacing now, I've the 8-racing carbon chassis in stock for the 410.

I've had a good look at it, I know that my opinion has to be biased, but it is a a quality item.

If you want me to post any more images of the carbon chassis just ask.

Yeah a few pics would be good please maybe of the underside with a csk screw in one of the holes ? It was maybe something different I see and got a bad first look

Bit late to go at it now........

I'll get on it tomorrow.

No worries

Cheers .

Here's some photos nice and big, shame the camera is not the best, with and without screw.
(Screw are M3)

Anything else, just ask.
