Re: A ReRe Frog Build

That Frog looks awesome! Are those side shocks upgraded? They look extra extra. I had a Hornet, which was awesome, when I was a kid but always wanted the Frog. Do you have any photos with the body off? Sorry for the long delay in getting back to you (I haven't looked at this topic in over a year) T...

Re: My RC10 Project

Do you find that the dhawk rear bulkhead stiffens up the rear end of the chassis? The nylon bulkhead allows some flex in the rear, so curious if the aluminum bulkhead solves that. Since this is the first and only RC10 I've ever built, I am unable to provide a definitive answer to your question at t...

Re: worlds cv joint question

YES!!!!!! I'll take that as a sign of approval :wink: The 9911 bones work great on my World's Car build The extra 1.25 or so mm may not seem like much at first, but at least in my case prevented me from having to limit the rear shocks too much and/or run the bones too close to the end of the outdri...

Re: rc10 world's re release

Associated customer service was good to me, as well

My kit came with an incorrectly machined top shaft and they sent me a free replacement

If you do get the kit, try to save your receipt and/or a copy of your proof of purchase just in case

Re: rc10 world's re release

While there have been some common problems with a few of the parts in this kit, most are relatively minor and easy to correct

Assuming you're comfortable with that, I think it's a pretty good buy considering current market pricing
