Very 1/8th scale!

[Rich D]

Serpent ?

[IceMike]

it says its an smb, well its etched with that all over anyways

[jaank]

It won't work - its too stiff.
Alltrough that center diff is nice.

[sosidge]

it says its an smb, well its etched with that all over anyways

I think that reads "s10b" - does that fit in with Serpent's current numbering?

[JohnM]

Back end looks lot like a HB D4.

[Mr. Red]

xray;)

[spenner]

Caster 4wd pro version

[simoncrabb]

That smb is in the same font as durango!?!

Chinese 'copy'?

[NitroArgi]

Actuallu it says S10B and if I had to make a wild quess about the manufacturer it will had to be one from the other side of the Atlantic. My quess would be either Serpent or O'Donnell :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

[spenner]

Just told you what it is!!! Caster new 4wd PRO version

[ryanlownie]

Yep it's the Caster alright...

In fairness Mark, you could compare it to any modern style 4wd buggy and it would have similarities. But, i really dont think its a D4 rip-off at all, far too many differences.

And besides, it IS a castor. Jimmy just confirmed it in the NEWS section. So, debate over i think.

[jimmy]

Certainly has some elements that look familiar but its one of the most unique buggys doing the rounds at the moment - at least in this PRO spec it is - D4 isn't machined from a lump of alloy is it! Very interesting.

[Mr. Red]

No CVD`s! Guess the final production car will have those.

[DaveG28]

Looks very much like my new car!!!! Caster 4wd pro version

Well I have to say its hardly cutting edge. And a doubt Durango need to worry as the thread title :p

really like this.
few questions.
are the diffs geared or ball diffs
is the slipper reliable
and is it gonna be a "fair price" eg competative with other 4wds ( not durangos)

think i really want one

[jimmy]

??? Eh! There are plenty of cars more expensive than a Durango 410r. I'd expect it to be around the same price personally.

[johnnygibbon]

if its same price as a 410r its mine.
but if its closer to the full spec rango might have to save a bit longer.or even just get the 410. its been proven and this is still new
really fancied a 410r though-until i seen this . geared diffs is the way to go for me i think
if this dont have em and still runs balls. then there is only one choice.
cmon castor more info please........
