DEX410 version Durango 2007

intéressant

I present you my crazy project!!!

First, the story:

In 2004 or 2005 I saw Bob Claes in Kampenhout for a training with his Durango. After that I was a Durango fanatic!!!

So I tried to contact Gerd Strenge to buy one, but I never received answer.

Here the Bob's Durango:

In 2008 I had the opportunity to have a Durango in my hands for few weeks. So I decided to draw a copy. For that I learned by myself the bases of Solidworks and I drew that:

After I modified the chassis to convert in 2007 version:

To finalize to project, it was possible with the Aeroracing Company. They made the specifics parts like the center driveshafts from the A-one.

So I ordered parts, I payed, but I never received the parts!! Thanks Aeroracing alias Bob Claes

In 2010 I bought a DEX410, I was happy, but it was not like an original Durango.

So I decided to adapt the transmission in my "project".

I modified about 50% of my drawings to install the DEX410 transmission, to use metric bearings and to use 25mm lipo.

And finally it's compatible!

Here 3d print to look if all is ok:

All others parts will come from DEX410!

After that I converted a traditional milling machine to CNC, I made the controller and I learned softwares to use it:

After some tests I can made the first aluminum parts!!!

Now I just need time to finish the project.

Milling take a lot of time and with the family it's not so easy...

Now I'm also the owner of an original Durango 2005!

very nice project

respect

j'ai installé toutes les pièces du DEX410 et ça se monte!
maintenant je vais reprendre les usinages!!

Version usinée 

Voilà, le projet touche à sa fin!!
J'ai fini la direction, il me reste plus que des petits détails à peaufiner!
Maintenant je vais aussi m'attaquer à la repro de la carrosserie!

tchouuuuuuuuuu c'est superbe !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

au passage j'ai une carro de 410 toute neuve qui traine dans un coin
