Another limited release?

Congratulations Fan RC, you are safe.

Please keep molding RC10 parts; we will need them.

Unfortunately fairly overcast but... DSC08567.JPG DSC08570.JPG Chuck Well, I got photos but yours are much better than mine. Was planning to travel to Walnut Ridge AR but weather looked a bit dodgy so switched to Paducah KY but it was looking a little cloudy so we stayed home and, between the rain ...

Thanks for creating this thread. This is perfect. Maybe not entirely obsolete. As you’ve mentioned, if you own a Stealth and need new parts, then Fan RC is the way to go. However, if you have the Austar transmission and would like to install a diff, then this thread might be useful. To summarize our...

While waiting for the eclipse, I've been in the back yard stirring the dust with my newest F150 toy.


I've geared it up a bit and running 4s, it's nearly as fast as my buggies -- although, it doesn't jump as well.

Looking good! If you're concerned about rubbing through the paint during the polishing process, you can clear-coat with lacquer since TS is lacquer based. Apply 5-10 coats of clear, wait 10 days then a light wet-sand with 2000 grit to remove dust or orange peel then polish. It will shine and reflect...

More research is needed. I have a BBX, Axial and Injora transmissions but I'd rather not tear into them at the moment. Imagine a TA06 diff dropping into an AE Stealth case -- how crazy would that be! :D EDIT: The Stealth diff gear is much smaller tooth count so no chance replacing it with a TA06. A...

That's awesome, well done.
Me thinks you might need a wheelie bar.

someone chimed in on the fakebook page and said you can use the tamiya hbx diff... Are they referring to the TL-01? Googling "tamiya hbx diff" yields many posts for an HBX clone of the Tamiya TL-01. maybe bbx . dont know tamiya models at all Hmmm. Well, looking at the manuals, the BBX and...

I agree, the tire lettering and the build overall looks fantastic! I haven't attempted mine yet. That very small font is a bit intimidating. One thing I noticed is that the angle of the upper and lower rear shock mounting screws cause binding so I bent the screws slightly to allow the shocks to cycl...

That is a really trick mod. Support for those gears will absolutely prolong their life. Thanks! A tiny amount of blue thread locker applied to each screw then, using a couple new hex wrenches, twist both screws together very tight so everything stays put. I have the GoolRC 3500kV combo as well (the...

Happy Easter everyone. “ He is risen. ” FWIW, I’ve been running this 6-gear short arm car with a Reedy 3500kV on 2s since around 2016… P1010430.JPG …and the only transmission related problem came when the idler gear shaft E-clip broke. Apparently, the broken clip has allowed the shaft to rock in the...

Appreciate the responses guys. Unfortunately its too late. The auction ended just after the first response. At least now I know for next time. I'm really sorry about that. I don't own a B stamp and wasn't aware they were holed for both transmissions. So, we've both learned something new. Edit: As i...

Does the original 2.25:1 stealth transmission just bolt in the 6-Gear tranny hold pattern on the gold chassis? NO MODIFICATION REQUIRED? I've got a B stamp Championship Edition with the 6-gear. Dont want to drill the chassis. Looking at buying a stealth bc i want to run a faster brushless motor. No...

Excellent work! Any updated pics for these two? Are they still that clean? Thanks! The short answer is no. Like most of the collection, they are covered with dust from setting on the shelf. :oops: The boxart body was moved to the Sand Scorcher to finish that build. The Blitzer Beetle has been conve...
