Re: Turbo Optima mid SE

Yeah, it looks fantastic. The wheels really came out nice.

Carbon Fiber filament

I see some of you a practically printing full cars with your printers. I'm wondering if anyone has tried any of the carbon fiber filaments? I realize in theory, it should make parts stronger and less flexible. I printed some 1.9 in Bruiser wheels with the proper offset to get the front and track wid...

Re: Turbo Optima mid SE

Ok, yeah. I totally understand now. Any testing on these shocks is welcome. I have set of medium length platinum shocks that aren't being used right now. I may do some testing like you've done.

Re: Turbo Optima mid SE

@radioactivity If I'm reading your post correctly, a small adjustment, using the shim between the floating piston and the head of the shock shaft, makes the rebound much better?

Re: A&L Body fitment

Do I contact Andy directly to get either of these bodies or does he have an ebay store? I like the Renegade. Both look like they are wide enough in the front.

A&L Body fitment

Hey guys! Years ago, I built an RC10 with the A&L C2 chassis set. I originally put a ProTech II on it with the rear of the body going over the top of the shock tower. I thought the body looked too high so I trimmed the back off to lower the body. It came out fine but my creative trimming was too...

Parts build RC10

Hey guys. I've been updating some of my RC10s. Also, I moved to a new, bigger house back in early 2021. This means that I've been able to organize all of my cars and parts. I've found that I had lots of stuff squirreled away including plenty of RC10 parts. Quick backstory, my family likes to go to t...

Re: Turbo Optima mid SE

So, all that work and you got minimal improvement? I could never get those things to work right.

Re: Customworks Titanium turnbuckles

I don't think it's Tworks. Both of these were sourced from CustomWorks. They look different. The steering one is clearly Lunsford. The upper link is ?

Customworks Titanium turnbuckles

I've purchased Customworks titanium turnbuckles many times in the past and they appear repackaged Lunsford. I swear we've had this discussion here in the past. OR, I'm just getting old and not remembering. I bought more titanium turnbuckles from Customworks recently and they appear to be similar but...

Re: Tekin RC10 Questions

Yeah, I think the Watts link is a good description of what it is. I'm using the AE rear hubs as trying to find a set of A2038s for a reasonable price is probably not going to happen.

Re: Tekin RC10 Questions

Thanks for the tips. I feel silly, there were already 3 spacers in the shock with the 1.32 shaft. So, 1.02 is the answer...with 3 spacers. It's been a while since I've worked on my RC10s. Yesterday when I was reassembling the rear suspension, I installed the rear suspension mounts upside down.

Tekin RC10 Questions

Hey Guys! I've been updating some cars lately and I have a question. Originally, I built my RC10 Tekin conversion without the active rear suspension. I did that because at the time, I didn't have any long rear hinge pins. Fast forward 15 years and I've acquired several basket case RC10s and a few se...

Re: Kyosho Dirt Master Ultima SB

I'd like to order a body set. I have an NIB RB5 in my closet and this body would be perfect for getting a hopped-up Dirt Master.
