Default What would you suggest or buy here, totally stuck

hi guys i have just bought a durango dex410.first buggy for 14 odd years its been a while since i last raced(5 years) and im a bit miffed with whats at the top of the tree for SERVO,SPEEDO,MOTOR.

in my tc i had 1.LRP QUANTUM 2
2 KO SERVO 2343
3 brushed peak advantage 10x2


can any of you suggest a top 3 in order of servos and speedos as to what they run in buggys at this time, from the best to last say.i know their much the same but im not to much of a novak fan.

i will be running MOD with low turns so a speedo with no limit it would be.

i quite like to run a LRP speedo and ko servo but i know that there are tekin and savox. some guys are saying the tekin isnt as important if your running A MOD motor to a stock and so run an lrp or other.

again there lrp motors, gm and speed passion ? again which would you run and what would you say is best?

a top 3 on speedo, servo and motor would be very greatful if you can take the time to help me here.

thank you

Matty, do you own a DEX? I don't think so as FULL SIZE servos fit no problem.

I wouldn't go for the fastest servo I could afford, I'd go for a slow-ish one. The steering is high geared in a Durango so a really fast servo can make it twitchy and hard to drive.

DS1015 is also my choice. It'll be fit and forget!

Orion VDS-1007/Savox equivelant £65
LRP Sphere/SXX TC £120
LRP X12 6.5 £60

Thats what Ive been running in 4wd mod for two years and Ive not had a single problem.

It should all fit in a Durango.

Thanks for your help guys...so just to confirm the normal size servo does fit the durango no problem.


i see there aint really a bad servo out there as long as the speed and torque are sufficient then? and around the 50-60 quid mark
