Re: What's special about my RC10DS?

Re: What's special about my RC10DS?

After a couple hours of work. I left the MSC and motor out pending resoldering some of the connections to make it look more "professional" http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af269/Mustang5L5/photo_2-12.jpg Just in case you missed it before you built it, the suspension isnt mounted the sa...

Re: What's special about my RC10DS?

Does anyone have any documentation of wiring the motor? The motor has two resistors (not sure if thats what they are) soldered in from the two terminals to the can. I did this back in the day following the directions, but want to make sure it's correct when I resolder everything up nicely.

Re: What's special about my RC10DS?

Pretty much what I just did. Totally disassembled it, cleaned, polished and oiled everything up and reassembled. Just need to put the motor and mechanical speed control back in after I redo the soldering. I'll post some pics.

Re: What's special about my RC10DS?

I'd have to get a sticker kit off ebay. I no longer have the one that came with the kit.


I was also thinking of just doing a red Mustang, or getting an HPI Saleen body and making that fit..or something else.

Re: What's special about my RC10DS?

Glad you decided to keep it! I sold my first "real" RC, (Kyosho Ultima) that I raced back in the late 1980's, and wish to this day that I kept it. I think I sold it when I had gotten my first truck, and needed to fill the tank. I mean, it doesn't take up much room, and you would just get ...

Re: What's special about my RC10DS?

Reserve was $200. But doesn't matter now. I got nervous and ended the auction. I had 42 watchers on it and tons of questions, so I got nervous and didn't think my reserve was high enough so i killed it. Screw the wife..i'm keeping it :) It was never about how much i could sell it for. It was more ab...

Kyosho GP-10

I'm the original owner of this one. Dusted it off the other day and debating driving it around a couple times. Bought this when I was a teen when the kit was brand new in mid 90s. Drove it stock a handful of times and then decided to hang up RC around 1998/1999. Ever since then, whenever a few hops ...

Re: What's special about my RC10DS?

That's how you justify keeping it to the wife. :lol: You toss in on, set the reserve above market value and when it doesn't sell you say "Guess nobody wanted to buy it, but i'm not throwing it out!" and put it back on the shelf. Seriously, i'm fine with putting it back on the shelf. It's a...

Re: What's special about my RC10DS?

So it's more of a niche car vs a collectable.

I'll prob keep it then. I was 15 when i built it. Still remember it like yesterday

What's special about my RC10DS?

Hey everyone. New guy here. Pulled out my old RC10DS from 1996. I'm the original owner, and it pretty much sat on a shelf. Used it a handful of times back then. In doing some research, seems these are still desirable? Should I keep it? It's the Trans Am Mustang body, gold wheels, mechanical speed co...
