Just make your own. Amezcua has.

I'm impressed with Travis' scratchbuilding skills if that's home-made!
He has managed to make a car that looks exactly like the car I'm doing the instruction manual for right now.

a serious answer for those interested...

the DEX210F is a DEX210v2 front end with an all-new chassis and all-new rear end design/geometry.
The layout was chosen because we think this is the best option for the big-picture range of TD products and also based for performance on high-traction tracks.
I think Tebo choosing the shaft car after testing laydown and shaft car really goes a long way to back up that choice

This is not a special car made for the worlds, this is a car made and designed for production and performance on medium grip Carpet and high grip Astroturf tracks all around the world

This car is the first of the next generation of TD cars which have shown their worth quite recently

Fair enough Chris, it was all the counter sunk holes drilled... and the 4wd rear/2wd front end, and easy to cut angles that made my untrained eye thing it was home made. I guess the chassis stiffeners give it away though.

Good point about the format, its working for Tebo (compared with the (new) other kyosho car Naoto is using), and I dare say that Ty Tessman would be in a better place if he was running Richard Lowe's D413/B5m cut'n'shut along the same lines.

Good luck with it.

I'm currently running two dex210s one with a 8mm chassis. I was going to upgrade to the dex210v2 but i think i will wait and see what come's out of the Team Durango stable.

Hi Chris,

as you say the Dex210f has the Dex210 front. I own a Dex210v2 and have problems breaking the front wishbones frequently on this track: https://youtu.be/jdvaMDbIsi8
Its indoors, but cold. Track is on concrete with 2-3 layers of carpet. If you fail to land on wheels after a jump, or you miss the carpet the wishbone is sure to break.
I love the Dex and would like to continue to run it, but get frustrated over this as my friends running other brands do not have the stability issue.
My question is, have the wishbones improved for the 210f, and will they fit my Dex210v2?
For the Dex210v3, will I be able to use those wishbones once the car comes out?

I'm looking so much for a more robust solution to not constantly have to think about not breaking stuff on the car.

Hope you can share some information on this.

Thank you.

Regards,
Michael

Hi Michael,

Where exactly does the arms break?
Have you tried boiling them?

Are we likely to see this kit before the new year??
