Re: Shinwa motor dresser manual

Can someone please post the images again for the manual for the motor dresser, they have been moved / deleted in the first post and they are impossible to find online anywhere else?

Or if anyone could PM me with them I could uploaded them for people to see.

Best Regards,

Alistair G.

Re: “Blueprint” Scorpion!

Scorpion%20Rodine%20ad.jpg I saw a picture online, an old ad, showing the Cox Scorpion (in the US. it was distributed by Cox and the only thing that differs from the Kyosho / Graupner-version are the decals, the box and that it was pre-assembled as far as I know). It said "Modeled after Bob Ro...

Re: My Vintage Box Art RC10 replicas

OK so I managed to find an Import Fighter advert on Ebay showing the RC10 box art. But I still can't figure out what magazine this Futaba Car Radios advert came from? Was it from an RCCA magazine of 1984? If so, which issue please?

Anyone? Please help!

BTW where did Ruffy go?!

Which magazine is this 2-page full spread advert with the RC10 box art on? Issue? Month? Year?

Re: My Vintage Box Art RC10 replicas

@ Ruffy, I'd like to ask a few questions please ;- 1) Did you use the AE #6160 later version body (the one that has the very regular window netting pattern, as if it's been CAD / CAM made) or the earlier version of the #6160 AE body with the "irregular" or hand molded netting pattern, or s...

Re: Rebuilding and refilling red Kyosho shocks - How?

I noticed that my used Optima shocks leaked quite a bit also, and after reading here I thought that it was the O ring so I remembered that I had a few years ago bought some white CRP 1529 O rings (3mm). I just tried one and it was a nice damping action but it leaked quite quickly when I only hand ti...

Re: RC10 rerelease is this rumour true?

To be honest the one I really can't figure out is Kyosho. Kyosho usually watches what Tamiya are doing quite closely it seems, and you would have thought (given the stupid money Optima's and Scorpion's are going for on the bay) that Kyosho would see a few Yen profit in the re-release idea, but appar...

Re: RC10 rerelease is this rumour true?

Too much labor cost involved with the stamped tub to make it profitable, and too many old worn out molds that would need to be refurbed or remade all together. That's why some old parts are not available anymore, the molds are simply worn out. Bottom line an RC10 rerelease aint gonna happen. How do...

Re: RC10 rerelease is this rumour true?

I highly doubt a re-release of any kind is coming. AE hasn't even acknowledged the 25th aniv. of the rc-10. How hard would it have been to put up a logo or something on the website, or even to do a limited edition B4-RTR with a retro paint scheme? Too busy churning out 1/8 scalers and short course ...

All parts are up now. Add "&fmt=18" onto the end of the web address for higher quality (less blocking, full smoothness). Download using Firefox 3 and free "Video Downloader", choose the .mp4 file. This D/L will be perfectly smooth video. My PC sometimes doesn't playback from ...
