As the name implies, this is YOUR area! It just makes sense for us both that I make parts people want, eh? Don't leave it to me, or stuff like dual-rear-wheel adapters, snowplows, etc. may happen! :lol: I'm paying attention Mates, Chris REC

You could sell as many of those items as you were willing to make!

Tecna-style wheels WILL happen- One chap here mentioned that one of the original guys wanted to bring 'em back & suggested I let him know out of courtesy, but he's had years & I'm not playing around. They'll be just a TAD different also, just so you know 1 member here-The original maker guy-may cop a 'tude! There will always be guys who cry "You copied me....", but almost all scale stuff is copied, and if someone isn't willing to put in the investment to make it happen & someone else will, well.....(Hell, I've had my axle nuts, shock pliers, & snatch blocks copied along with some other tools, and ya don't hear me going off on people.)

I'm mapping the Stealth case as we speak, and and will be spitting stuff out fairly quickly. One thing is, I don't know the difference between the different bulkheads, steering, etc. so any pics, info, references, etc. will surely help! Very glad to see the response already, I'm on it Chaps, keep it coming. Chris REC

bulkheads

version 1 - notice how long the areas are for the wing tubes. there's also 9 camber rod locations on each side.

version 2 - wing tube length decreased in order for a new inboard camber location. it was also opened up in the battery box area to be able to move the rear arm mount front and back to adjust wheelbase without having to hack the battery box open (forgot a pic of that).

version 3 - outer 6 camber locations removed on both sides. 1 new camber position added between 3 that are left from the outer mounts, and the new location in version 2.

None of those look un-doable by any means: Once that is established (Why I likey pics,) thing to do is have someone send me 1 of each unit for a few days & I can map 'em out exactly. They may or may not be the very next project, but once I have something drawn it goes WAY up on the prolly-happen-quick-o-meter. Chris REC (P.S.- No one is jumping at the chance to send me a MIP Legends belt car for evaluation, hint!) On that, we could work out something, I'm sure.

I'm going to bigger here - what about doing an early Edinger replica chassis? Same light anno but with stealth holes drilled.

Would love to get some nice aluminum front / rear shock towers. I have a set that another member made and it's great, I never have to worry about breaking the front tower anymore.

Only other thing would be the diamond shaped wing buttons and an RPM style gear cover. I will also echo the rear bulkhead and arm mounts.

rc10b4 s.c.a.b.'s is on my list of wants seeing we can use them on the vintage rc10's d 10t's using the b4 rpm covers/b4 slipper / b4 topshaft. plus that would give us a chance to get them for our newer buggies also. gold ano on them would be sweet. :)

I have some Gold ano'd samples on the way now: SCABS are a great possibility, and I'm thinkin' Titanium shock towers (Why screw around.) :mrgreen: Adapters are on the list also, etc......

Just to clear things up a bit, I can't do factory-style chassis as machining has nothing to do with bending sheet metal into any complex shape, so sadly I can't do that. :( (Flat-ish chassis I can do.) Also, I'm being asked to do some onesey-twosey-ish work, and that is not affordable, I'll be frank- There's a reason there are no machinists making prototype parts on the cheap: One of us is gonna get hosed, and it ain't me! :P As I've heard it put, I can use my rare personal time, expensive machinery, and technical ability to either work on my hobby or other people's, and the harsh reality is that I must spread the costs over a certain # of units to hit affordability.

That said, even if the answer is 'No', don't let it put you off askin', no harm there! Chris REC
