Scale detail at a low price is the combination that makes the 1/10 scale Evader DT from DuraTrax one-of-a-kind. Killer custom style surrounds the tough-as-nails 2WD chassis, with realistic off-road wheels and tires that tuck neatly beneath the painted pre-runner body. Bumpers, skid plate, roll bar, light bars, mirrors, truck bed with cooler and functional spare tire all add up to an RTR rig that rocks. Hit the throttle of the included Tactic radio and imagine you’re ripping up a riverbank, catching air and coming down easy, confident that if a Stress-Tech part breaks, DuraTrax will replace it free.

Corally have released information about their latest release, the 10SL ‘Side Links’. Shown in prototype form, it is available in a 200mm and 235mm champions kit, in full graphite and undergoes the same transformation as their 12SL chassis, to allow the mounting of LiPo packs. By going from a T-bar to a link, or as Corally are calling it ‘Side Links’, this allows the right amount of space to mount a 1S 3.2V LiPo pack up to a 7.4V stick pack LiPo. The car also features an updated front end and stiffer rear end, compared to its predecessor, that can easily accommodate brushless motors, while a new ‘top deck’ supports to centre shock and also adds extra stiffness to the chassis.
