 This is the Team Durango DESC210R 1/10 Scale Electric 2WD Short Course Truck Kit. The DESC210R uses many of the ground breaking features introduced on the DEX210 buggy. It includes the option to run mid or rear motor, a 3 or 4 gear transmission layout, as well as the ability to position the motor on the right or left side of the chassis, an option never before seen on a Short Course Truck! Team Durango is taking Short Course Truck racing to the next level.
Unique Design
The DESC210R is unique. The 'Hybrid technology' gearbox design has a patent application (No: 2 486 513), and allows you, the racer, to choose if you want the motor to be in rear- or mid-motor position. Not only that, you can decide whether you want the motor to be on the left- or right-hand side of the car. All of these configuration options can be used with the same gearbox unit, without the need to alter the suspension geometry. This ability, to tune the weight distribution and torque orientation of the motor, without changing your suspension set-up, is what makes the DESC210R arguably the most tuneable, yet user-friendly pro electric off road Short Course Truck kit available.

Big Bore Shocks
The DESC210R includes Team Durango's 'Fat Shock' Big Bore shock absorbers. Race proven on the '2012 Reedy Invitational' winning DEX210 buggy, these Big Bore shocks keep the DESC210R nimble and planted. With a full range of optional Big Bore springs available, the DESC210R can be fine-tuned for any track and any condition. A full range of pistons are included in the kit - Durango even includes blank pistons so you can drill your own for the ultimate in shock tuning!
Injection Molded Engineering Composite Chassis
A first for Team Durango kits, the DESC210R makes use of the 'Team Durango Injection Molded Engineering Composite' Chassis. Manufactured to precise specifications, the flex and strength offered by the DESC210R's chassis makes it forgiving and fast. With the addition of adjustable battery position you can also balance the chassis out for perfect weight distribution on any track.
Caster & Rear Toe Inserts
Getting the setup options you want without expensive optional parts is what the DESC210R is all about. Using specially designed inserts to change rear toe-in and front caster. The axle spins on bearings seated in the hubs which allows the same wheel hex fitment front and rear.
Fully Adjustable
The DESC210R is an ultra-adjustable platform, designed to be tuned to any track or condition you can throw it at.
