RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

I first saw one of these on Tamiyaclub back in 2006. First impressions were, what were they on? :lol:
After much investigation and research, I decided that I would buy one and modify it for running. There's no way I could shelve something this...

Recently received this RC10 from ebay. Got it torn down and cleaned.

One of the idler gears, ASC#6613, has a couple chips out of the teeth.

Is there anyone making those for sale?

Sorry for those without Facebook access, but Eustace is making an exciting announcement tomorrow

The motor with a blue and chrome label that came with the original RC10.
There are no markings on the can or end bell and no reference to Reedy.
Was it made by Yokomo :?:

I am getting ready to start work on the new RC10 B7D. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice before I start?

I think this actually looks promising!

So, inspired by MXACRES on YouTube I’m building a Bandit from the ground up because I figure if I bought the buggy whole, I’d wind up replacing everything eventually, so why not just build it from the ground up with good parts to begin with(?)....

Little giveaway for owners of the 40th anniversary kits to see who has the highest kit number *edit- AND LOWEST NUMBER*. Since AE won't tell us the total number made we will have to see if we can approximate it by collecting numbers ourselves. I'm...

IMO, the best looking monster truck of the '80s was the Kyosho Double Dare! Not the best at really anything else, but looks wise, the DD does it for me!! :D So, through horse trading, I have ended up with two semi-crappy Double Dares, so might as...

It's been a while but I'm back to working on my MM Rustler project. I've decided to design a new version which is why I've started this new thread. It's been a long time since I started my original mid motor conversion and in that time I've gotten...

Hey guys, what can you tell me about this one from Novak?

In the pictures, look for a short bit of wire that is located at the receiver and switch output area. There are two wires, both red, soldered together. :shock:

I don't think that part was...

Hello All,
Does anyone know of an expected window of when these kits will begin shipping?

Hello all,
For my 6 gear build I picked up 2 Novak 4s with the idea of making 1 that works.

I only have basic soldering experience.
What tools should I look into getting? What would be helpful.

I was going to get an soldering iron

Is there a...

I recently had 2 Kyosho OT-85 center gears (idlers) printed by Shapeways.
The gears were printed MJF PA12. Vapor smoothing or any smoothing was not an option.
The gear faces are not particularly well finished. Probably nature of the beast.
I really...

Had no idea they reissued the 1977 6-wheeler.

Spotted this for $190 last night, and this fool and his money have parted ways - once again.

Have a Hobbywing 1060 ordered for it, as it definitely doesn't come with the ESC.

Since my other car projects are about 90% done, it makes sense that I forget about them and dive into another.

Here's my JRX Pro-SE. My parents bought it for me very late in my RC car racing phase so I raced it very little and did very poorly...

This is my first rc car back in 1985-86. It's now odd parts or part on an Off-road car (pictures of it later).

I've finally got around to looking for a mid '80's RC10 buggy and have found one locally going at a good price.
Can someone date this sucker?
My economic forecast for 2009 looks bleak if I win this buggy:shock:
Dig that funky CRP bumper...That'll...

So I've just completed a recreation of my old vintage hotshot and I went with the original yellow Tamiya CVA shocks for the build as that's the way it was BITD , anyway last weekend I met up with a mate and we went for a bash at a local spot , he...

I recently dusted off the Rocky 4WD I built in the early 80s and used and handful of times around my yard back then. It's fully functional and I'm wondering if there's a market for these. Any info anyone might have would be greatly appreciated! It's...

The brushless car features a JC Racing transmission (adapted for stock dogbones with a slight motor plate mod for pin-clearance which works great).

Anyone here into tractor pulling? I have been anxious to get into some sort of local RC competition, but 1:8 buggy racing is out of my skill set, and everything else is just too far away to justify getting into. But, through a FBMP deal this...

I'm trying to get a certain color for a 1/10 '67 Corvette body. I can't find the exact color match in Tamiya, or Duratrax polycarb spray paints.

I've seen some people say that if the inside of a lexan body is roughed up with a green pad to produce...
