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

I have posted this up on a couple of Fb group pages earlier today and I was rather surprised at how many people studied and comment upon it.

A friend of mine was a freelance journalist who wrote for the two big RC magazines in the UK, and was at...

After being dormant since the late eighties I've decided to blow life into my old A stamp. I've been thinking of doing this for years, and now I'm posting the build here in the hope it will motivate me to actually get it finished. The goal is to get...

Hi All
Have a few questions about a conversion kit I found.
It's an RCH oval conversion kit.
Anybody ever heard of it?
Anybody use one back in the day?
Any pics of one built?
I will ad a pic later of the kit I have.
Thanks
Mike

Need to get back on this one sometime.
Pit Stop chain drive.

I'm not sure what you all are using for turnbuckles but I was in the market for some for my Team Car rebuild. I'm far too cheap to buy anything titanium, nor am I a good enough driver to make use of any performance gains. I wanted something a tiny...

I'm rebuilding an RC10 Team Edition with a carbon chassis and I just discovered that one of the nylon internal split snap rings is missing from one of the rear shocks. Anyone have a source or something that interchanges? I see they are included in...

Enjoy the unboxing pictures of the RC10FX Special . This recently became part of my Team Associated buggy lineup.

This buggy is marketed in their Yokomo General Import Distributor for Team Associated brochure as having (in Japanese), ...almost the...

A little side project.
I’ve had this in a drawer for a while and decided to get it cleaned.
It’s quite impressive what a thorough clean can result in.
Boiling water.
Simple green.

Hey guys,
I have both sets of front wheels, rc10b2 offset, and when measuring them, the jc racing wheels have 4mm more positive offset.
This is about what the b4 wheels are, I looked on Jc's website, and my wheels have the outer flange like in their...

Hi all. I haven't posted on here in a few years. So please forgive me if my image links don't work at first. I'll eventually figure it out. :lol:

So I have been working on making this Trackmaster dirt oval replica chassis that has built in shorty...

Hey guys, I’m setting up an RC10 to run at my local Clay track. I plan on putting some big bore shocks on it that I took off of a B5m. I’m looking for some basic set up Tips since I know several of you guys have run big bore shocks on your RC10s....

Hi all, I tried searching and didn't find anything about this. I got a stainless screw kit for the RC10 Worlds car for use on my Graphite chassis Team Car (t least I think that's what it is). The new screws aren't the correct head angle to match the...

Well, the building itch has hit me again. I was going through my old parts box, and found I had almost everything to put together another RC10...I already have one, so I've decided to experiment. I picked up a sheet of 3mm G10 and using only the...

If the tub chassis Team Car was released the same year as the CE, (90’) then why would the Graphite chassis cars announcement be...

Hello all.

It seems that gp3d is taking preorders for:
RC10 '91 Detroit Worlds REPLICA Conversion Kit - PREORDER

Pretty happy as I have been looking for a rc10 91 replica. Thought I'd share the info here.

Charles.

Was there a such thing? Looking at RPM and Andy's, I am only seeing what look to be wide front arms. Any options?

I'm looking for information on shock mounting bushing for gold pan rc10's.
It looks like at one point a common style nylon shoulder(plastic bush/step washer) washer was replaced with a custom molded part

Were these types of bushing actually...

Anyone recognize this? Believe this to be some sort of fiberglass RC10 chassis. All existing chassis holes line up with original gold pan (no stealth holes). Thinking this may have been some type of early on road chassis as it doesn’t seem quite...

Looks like all 3 colors, white, black, and yellow are currently in stock. Nice to see they are for the 1/4 rear axle

Using stock 54t spur with 15t pinion and Trinity 27t stock brushed motor. Should this combo be safe enough for the 6 gear tranny ?

So I just bought an MIP SL-1 for and RC10 project I started.

Based on all the manuals I've looked it, it appears to include all the parts. I gotta say this thing is a work of beauty. It's just...sexy inside.
It came with a GD-100 and a TC-100. All...

Is associated #6571 the correct top shaft for the stealth buggy trans? And does the 10t use the same shaft? Looking at some online docs can get confusing :?

Picked up this lightly used b2 roller that I tore down cleaned up and added new front tower and new rear tires and bearings to the steering. I will replace some other parts as I go as well as some of the hardware.

So I just purchased a 6gear RC10 (minus electrics) from Etsy for $170. I've had most the pieces for a 6gear RC10 that I got 25 years ago, but I'd been too afraid to do anything with it lately.

The one I just bought says in the listing that it has a...

What are the appropriate years to combine an RC10 and a set of Technacraft turnbuckles?

Ok I have almost all parts needed to build my Kinwald worlds rc10 now minus correct rear wheels and 1/4 inch MIP cvds.

Since my teens, I have loved RC10s.

Since my teens, I have thought RS Golden Arrows were great looking.

Since getting back into vintage RC, I have thought about combining the two, but gold pans just weren't all that compatible with the GA body....

Hello friends of the RC10

Does anybody of you have experience in making a tub chassis from aluminium? I would be interested in making one, but there are a lot of questions...

Which material is good?
What heat threading processes are needed...

Not quite ready to kickoff this project yet, but getting closer. This B stamp chassis has some issues so it's the right participant for this project since there will be a little chassis trimming needing to be done.

Does anyone know if the 7380 axles 3/16 mip for the t2/t3 /
customworks short can be substituted for the

b4 part 9598 ?

I'm racing my B3 on carpet soon and want to fit a rear rollbar. Anyone have photos/instructions of where it clamps to the chassis?

Thanks.

Well after many many years,my son became interested in my old worlds car. After a pile of upgrades it goes to fast has to much torque and is way to cool 😎. Now I need help, broke a stock rear axle and need guidance to find something that will fix...

I've decided to get my old A stamp gold pan running again. I rebuilt it a few years ago and ran it on astro once but I remember struggling a little with gearing.
I think I had a 9t pinion (32dp gears), whatever the stock spur was, and a 16x2. I did...

IS this a good Vintage Buggy for my collection? What should I expect to pay? Thanks

Here's the eBay link. I like the body.

Didn't see a thread started on this yet. Thanks to Andrew Cooke of Grand Prix 3D for making this dream build possible.

Pic borrowed from his Facebook page.

Just got this one in from the bay. Going to make a runner. No AE markings. I'm a rookie here. Andy's or Composite Craft maybe?

Just arrived. Nicer than I even hoped. I'm chasing a childhood want that I never got then. 8) Got a few others on the way to make runners out of. I'm scared to even take this one apart :lol:

Hi everyone!!

New guy here and excited to get back into RC with my kids. I’m in my 40’s so these buggies were my first love. I’d watch my neighbor for hours jumping his RC10 on the sidewalk. My parents got me a first gen Ultima. Loved it. Lol....

There ain't nothing new about it. Even different is still old. But whatever.

I got the idea of using the RPM Bandit arms from one of Niki's builds but decided to approach the steering differently.

Truck nose plate, cut down and tapped for use on...

So I got my dad’s old rc10 and it has a body spoiler on it but I was just looking at old pics and never see anyone have one of these is this something factory you could buy or was this a custom part my dad made?

I went to visit the Pargu store in South Korea earlier this year, and while perusing his shop came across his last gold aluminum rims for the vintage RC10. It must have been in storage for many years. These are the 1.7 rear and 1.9 fronts (I think...

So a few days ago I found out about a car I had never heard of before, an RC10B3x.

The car was run at the at the postponed 2001 Ifmar Worlds in 2002, and seems to have been raced at other tracks in 2002. Here is what...

Picked up some Rc stuff that had been sitting for 30 years or longer and this has a few upgrades including this graphite tub chasis with nose piece as 1 unit. It came with cadillac box and is a stamp. Had the short arms,original steering and...
