Re: RC10T - Adam's modern build

Looks great Adam. Just a heads up on the RPM arms- if you are on a high traction surface, they kill the handling. Seriously, they will flex, twist, deflect and then rebound in corners and you will chase a setup forever. The T2 type arms solve all of it though.

Re: RC10 Edinger Fire Rescue

The chassis looks great. Rod, I'm sure this is painful...but it's a process. If I can help with ANY parts for the restoration if the nylon isn't salvageable etc, please let me know. I'm pretty damn sure that I'm not the only one who would donate parts to see this Phoenix rise.

Re: 1991 Factory Supported RC10T build

Beautiful build. What do you mean by "center drilled the heat sink" Is this a mod the pros did, what and why? Any idea where I could find a set of those rear tires for my build? Thanks. I'll post some pics of it, just another way to lighten the heat sink when you don't have clearance issu...

Re: tools fer cheatin!

A buddy of mine worked at Demon in the UK . One of his duties was motor testing for the team drivers. Basically he would spend hours on end cherry picking motors. Lowest current draw highest RPM. IIRC. I know he used to also zap the magnets on his modified motors, weaker magnets less torque more rp...
