Re: My OIN Worlds whatever you want to call it racer.

This hex conversion for the rear is Awesome! Thanks for putting the list of parts together. I was able to convert my rere easily and with minimal parts ordering. (This was after trying the B44 CVA Bone which was too long.) I also ordered the list previously provided by RC10th. I ordered some specifi...

Which can be confirmed by measuring the 2 sets of nose tube holes that are about 12mm apart from each other. So everything shifts bac...

Re: Shearing Bell Crank Screws

Thanks guys. When I was a teenager I never owned loctite nor applied to to any of the screws. All the green screws seemed to have more "bite" when tightening. A loose screw is definitely going to under go some fatigue loading real quick and with the combo stated it will quickly fail. I wil...

Shearing Bell Crank Screws

I never had a chance to upload a pic of my car. So this is my Worlds RE RE. It's a very stock and meant to be a car to race here and there and drive laps at the track. So after driving at the track 5 times I have managed to shear the left bell crank screw off due to some crashing and what not. I wou...

Re: Gearing a 17.5T BL

Just bought some more pinions. I was running 81x21 (FDR=8.68) because I read the manual incorrectly for my setup. I'm going to try 81x30(FDR 6.08) on the next outing. Based on this thread 81x30 should get me more in the ball park of modern gearing. Glad this thread exists.

Hello from Sacramento

My name is Jim and I am born and raised here in Sacramento CA.

Then, finally, a RC10 Team Car (just befor...
