The last car is a laydown mid-motor RC10. RC10Laydown_1.jpg RC10Laydown_2.jpg The video shows the first day at a carpet track. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWc1NQyA83o JWc1NQyA83o My friend drove the car and I took the video. I should have driven my car by myself (this is my mistake... I had to e...

It's cool to see a B1.5 hitting the track. I ran one of mine at the 2015 Vonats and was pretty happy with it. If I had more time to mess with it i probably could've made it made better. But, it's a once and done car. But, I do have a runner on the bench that needs a couple things before it's ready ...

This thread is extremely helpful. Your cars are built with some excellent combinations and tuning, thanks for sharing! I love that each car has a unique setup. Overall, which car would you say you like driving the best? definitely would like to see some more of the DS Nitro conversion. Thank you fo...

Next cars are mid motor RC10s. One is the car with the flipped stealth transmission (stand-up style) and the other is the electric conversion of Nitro DS (laydown transmission). RC10MID_1.jpg I describe the stand-up mid first (RC10B1M-D??). I would just call RC10Mid. <Introduction> This RC10Mid foll...

<Rear shock tower> B1.5_6.jpg Left is the modified shock tower and right is T2 stock shock tower. B1.5_7.jpg Modification is easy. 1. Put two shock towers together by using the bottom and second holes of the body mount holes. 2. Cut the bottom of the shock tower and add four shock tower mount holes ...

Since B1.5 was introduced above, I decide to describe my B1.5 here by comparing with my RC10. <Introduction> This B1.5 is T2 buggy. I use the T2 nose plate with the stock T2 chassis length and change the T2 arm to the RPM Worlds arm (dyed black). I would like to call this car B1.5(WOIN). T2 chassis ...

I asked my friends to run my RC10 (red one) and B1.5 and took a video. He kindly upload this video on his youtube account. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etZ8BEizsEo I would like to note a few things. ・It was their first time to run my cars. ・This video was taken before above modification on RC10. ...

Finally, I got good mid-corner speed. I wanted to have a small amount of roll in mid corner so that I can have a front bite to overcome the under-steer tendency during acceleration. I have tried different front settings (spring rates, shock angles and shock pistons). But those changes brought too mu...

That's disappointing. I would have expected better performance considering the front weight bias, suspension mods, etc. Well, I reckon it's time to move that motor to the front of the rear wheels?? Already! RC10_6.jpg Well, the wheelbase and front tread of my RC10 are short. I would expect less ang...

Absolutely slow!!

Mid-corner speed is totally different especially if corner radius is larger.
This car does not turn well if there is no braking motion.

>RC104ever I use front B4 caster blocks and B4 rear hub carriers to lower the ride height. For the current setting of RC10, I try to maximize initial turn-in speed. With the wide rear width, I could have a good exit speed with less rear roll. Once I design (or set) the car to fit a layout and surfac...

My pleasure!

But, from my quick comparison, the length of Yokomo bone is pin to pin and 9911 is total.
This makes sense because Yokomo bone is used for the B4 hub set up.

Yokomo bone was introduced below topic. http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=34582&start=45 I simply used Associated CVD coupler (#7381). Yokomo has discontinued B-MAX2 bone. The new one is Z2-010RB2 (for YZ-2CA) and length is 62mm. I just received this bone from Yokomo as a substitu...

Thank you very much for your comments. Unfortunately, I only have one digital scale and have never measured the weight distribution. I will update this information if I have a chance to measure it. I came up with this setting after considering balances between yawing, pitching and rolling of RC10 (w...
