This is a tribute to the great line of RC10 buggies produced since 1984-2009 (RC10 - RC10B4). This is a work in progress. It will take some time and help from fellow members, as we all learn new things about the different versions. So please be...

Question I haven't found a firm answer for... it seems some RC10's have much whiter Nylon than others. I'm not talking about dirt or oxidation/aging etc.. just simply as they came some cars had much whiter nylon. I know this because I was fortunate...
I've seen a previous post about putting B2 CVD's on a gold tub to use B2 tires and wheels. But what do you need for a gold tub to use B4 tires and wheels??
Does anybody know if machined aluminum suspension parts for the original, b2 or b3 buggies is available anywhere? The front and rear arms are available here but I would like to get the rest of the pieces like the suspension mounts, carriers and...

Thank you Pete and TallPaul. I had forgotten about Inet. I think that there are a few pieces there that will work. Looks like Kranzels also has some machined aluminum. Thanks for the links and if anybody else has additional info or companies please...
The nose tubes are bent on a crazy angle has this thing taken a hit or what?
Last post
The chassis appears to be taco'd some too, at the point where it starts tapering wider towards the center. I have a 10T tub that has the same affliction.
Hi guys, it's been a while since I didn't post a new project here, though I have tons of unfinished projects waiting for me to be retired, LOL

I have learned a few things about running on higher grip surfaces like grass and carpet since I returned to Belgium: main goal is to keep enough grip to move forward as it should, but reduce sideways grip to prevent rolling over.

I'm a newbie to this forum, based here in good old blighty (that's the other side of the pond). I've recently bought myself an original RC10 and an original RC10 CE both of which are in mint/unused condition. I always wanted one of these...

Painted a body for my B3 runner today, the lighting doesn't do the colors justice though. Turned out better than the last one :roll: but I messed up in a few areas, let me know what you all think.
B3 body start!

Got some photo's of it outside but the lighting wasn't the best since I got home so late. It looks so much better in person though.
Just about to start getting this one ready for some track time. The B3 by far is my favorite buggy of all to...
I painted a new body for my original B4 (first one since I bought it back in 2003) to race with over the summer. It's not perfect but it turned out good enough for me :D. Anyhow, here's some pics!
I've been going pretty heavy on the Losi's for a while but last week I was at home waiting to go to the dentist to have a wisdom tooth pulled - not much fun any time. I needed a distraction do I jumped up on evil bay to see what was going on. I...

Were there ever black wheels on the CE or are those dyed as well?
you could get them (white, black, and yellow), but only white was included in the kits.

A standard rc 10 chassis will work i have one that I toy with at the races, however they are heavy. As far as dirt oval car you have dominator parts which I think are custom work cars but you also have losi. You can take a standard car or truck and...
Hi guys,
I have an RC10 'WORLDs' car and after cleaning it up I'd like to ask for some advise on what parts i should be looking for.
I realy dont like the tie rods that are on this car. They look identical to the early gold pan items and the ball...

Losi makes a nice natural white (but not RPM white) heavy 4/40 ball cup, same length as the
RPM ones, and easy to find if you look hard the bottom worlds car in the pic has em' (before I found NIP AE ones--
New project, finally have all three of the ascot's by bbt Vindicator, Desperado, and the Challenger. I also came across these down tubes not sure what they went to says that they are for the rc10 anybody seen these before?

Here is a pic of the 1st version ascot and a pic of the (challenger is the top pic) that I started a while back but I think I might take it apart and have the frame powder coat black not sure yet
what are my options? i am looking for something after market, and period correct. Was thinking a Hotbodies Stealth Bomber (uni-window one) because the stealth fighter body i have wont fit.
any suggest anything? willing to buy also if for sale lol
Last post
yea i have a stealth fighter, way to narrow. the stealth bomber (which i have a crappy painted one) fits perfectly perfectly.. just cant seem to find one lol
I'm starting to build my A&L chassis and want to do something a little different atleast. I have a buggy with what I believe is a A&L front shock tower for the RC10T. My question is, would it look alright on a A&L glass chassis kit?
Last post
Yeah, I thought it would help smooth out jumps a bit but this one will only do shelf duty. The buggy pictured though has a very interesting future I shall share soon ;).
I need some advice, I just picked up this A stamped goldpan, originally I was going to powdercoat and drill for a stealth but upon seeing the A stamp now i'm not so sure. One other thing that troubles me is that there are many scratches in the...

I've got the CRP collars shown in the first pics that I won't use and they do fit the associated shocks, I may consider selling them if there is any interest in them, they are in great shape, also may consider trades for a chassis or parts.
I hadn't checked into eBay for a day or two and when I did,I found that I had won this MIP tranny for the RC10 for the pittance of US$20!
It's totally complete,apart from the three bolts that hold it together (thankfully) and even includes a NIP...

Wow,nice XR!
I really like the XT and XR Falcons...The XW GTHO with the 351 Windsor would have to be my fave Falcon,though.

I'll admit that I'm a lifelong Tamiya nut, having built my first RC car in 1983 or '84 -- the Hornet, because it was all I or my family could afford. I never had money for a Team Associated RC10, but was always in awe of how much more advanced they...

Hey Steve,
Welcome to the forum. Congrats on your new purchase. I do have to say that if you got the buggy from Dave that you could not have gotten it from a nicer guy. Dave is a true asset to the hobby. It sounds like you have some cool plans for...
Can someone tell me what wheels are featured on the RC10 in this gallery? They're very sharp. Oh, lots of other neat pictures from the recent Japanese hobby show are featured here as well.

Thanks Jeff -- that's the wheels! Great flyer. Those wheels seem hard to find. I've looked for them in the past, not realizing they were the same wheels in that Time Tunnel photo.

I picked one of these up over the weekend. It's brand new but has a horrible pro paint job . I can't seem to find anything on it, anybody got the scoop on what it fits?

I don't know anything about it. I was hoping it was for RC10

Finished the decals,too.
Just a few small items left and it'll be all good. :D

Vintage Pro-line V-Groove front tires, PN: 019F or 1022.
Want something better than the stcok servo saver in my goldpan and was wondering who (besides associated-have had 0 luck finding any) made ball bearing bellcrank steering kits for the RC10?

Standoff height is determined by placing the hex portion of the aluminum on the top or bottom
of the bellcrank, and the Putnam ones won't work on a older car because they have a fore/aft
hole system for ackerman & bump steer that will connect with...

Very nice runner.
Its funny how bringing one of these oldies to the track will get the talk of vintage racing going.
Could you provide me more informations about this car.
The main chassis, fit a Losi Rear End and a AE front.
But I'm not sure about the year of this chassis, The right rear End was from the Pro or the Pro SE ?
Thanks for any strong help...

Iwant to be sure about the period, before or after the Pro SE ?
The chassis is from before both the pro and pro-se.

I have a sillyish question-I have an RC10T2 and I'm using my T4 a lot more,now.
