HSP factory version made from the MT type chassis and made for the European market.

Dunerunner clone? Or not?

There are some differences at 1st glance... smaller engine, tuned pipe, axle boots, different electronics setup, shock covers, metal shock endings...

I like they realized the front wheels need to match the rears!

Hint, hint, Redcat

Close but not quite

DR runs single steering servo , different fuel tank and sturdier looking front and rear shock mounts

I like the fact that the front drive shaft is straight though instead of being all over the place

This was being discussed over at lsf. Roven is releasing it.

Wow, really? Maybe it's not an HSP factory truck.

 

[phreerider]

wow , redcat has great price point already! DR layout i think is better...

vekta 5 ---> go original!

Me too.

I prefer the single servo layout

What I would really like to see is a Redcat with a Losi transmission set up

Redcat would make a killer rig if they bulletproof that drivetrain. The layout is already great not strong enough though. The rest (the plastic stuff) the aftermarket company can take care of that. But it all starts with a great drivetrain first.

I've got a belt drive on mine

It's a vast improvement

I thought they were all the same

 

[andyken]

I thought they were all the same

dune runner ant MT are different

 

[Phill]

Didn't know that

I bought replacements that didn't say which one they fitted and they went straight on??

This is the same as mine. Sold as HSP here in Aus. It's the same length as the MT. I bought a proper DR chassis from the US and made mine the same as DR.

They are advertised as the version 2. The version 1 is the same as the DR. That's how i got the correct centre shafts. With this model ALL the driveline parts are the same as the MT. I know this cause i have both and have had to swap parts when things have broken.
