Once we have a look at the rere and verify they didn't move too much stuff around we should be able to offer those

Wow what a great build. Nothing too tight or too loose. Everything there, although at times I was thinking man an extra eclip or screw here and there wouldn't hurt haha. The spine is very weak, 1mm thick g10 and flexes like crazy. First thing on the drawing board will be an upper brace. They used yr4 style covers so no drilling needed to add a brace. Highly recommend the build, but I can't wait to see what we come up with for it. I'm thinking my first will be the 89 Masami chassis.
I will say, not much is compatible with original as far as chassis and layout. The towers are taller, the chassis narrower, the bulkheads completely different in mounting, motor mount is shifted, etc. LOTS of changes.

There is 1 running at a big meeting here in Nz this weekend after a practice day today the big thing I can see is it needs way more droop for outdoor real off-road tracks.

Is this a consequence of using longer shock towers and shorter shocks? When Fan RC put the comparisons up on Failbook between original and re-re parts I was thinking is this change to accommodate more modern carpet tracks? A solution would be to put on older style towers and longer shocks.
This is no a re-re but a modern take on the 870c design.
I have a 89 worlds conversion kit that I got from Fan RC that I am using on it, most of it fits after I re-drilled the chassis using the new one as a template. if you go this route make sure you have a dremel tool! it isn't pretty but who cares since this car has undertray
the dogbone length is funky, normally the kit uses the 422 length which is too long for the re-re diffs so I ordered a set of 421s.
Here is mine with our 89 Masami conversion added. Not a lot of room with old school cells for sure. Tried adding the lipo to the other side but just not enough room even with the shorty servo. Ended up leaving it in the stock rere location.

The turnbuckles are copies for an RC10 that I found on Ebay.
Shocks are from Fan RC. They are really nice, they come with seals, all the hardware and springs but you can use any associated sized spring. Same with the pistons
I have a YZ10/project and unfortunately I don't have a manual for it. This is the U.S. release version of the YZ870C. I was able to get an 870C manual online but I was surprised that there seems to be no online/PDF manual for the YZ10. Every place...

Sorry to resurrect this. I am new to the forum as I am getting back into my old RCs I found in the attic from when I was a kid. My fav was the YZ-10 which I would have bought some time around 88/89 since I didnt even have my drivers license yet (I...
Anybody here have any info on what's next for a Kyosho rere? I know it would be here if somebody knew but then again maybe not :). Kyosho has always been my favourite brand for their cool 80's/90's cars and I will continue to buy anything they...

Old thread but as of 2017, I would like to see the Ultima Pro re-released.
I have a question that may have been discussed elsewhere. Why is it that Associated keeps making RC10 aluminum chassis in all 3 versions but stopped making the front plates and the motor plates? Seems like those would be the higher wear items.

I highly doubt they're still making tubs. They just haven't sold out like everything else.
First of all it's been a VERY long time since I've been on this site.... WOW looks like Ive missed a lot!
So I picked this up new and built it to this point a couple years ago. Since then it's just kinda been hanging around the shop waiting for a...

Holy molly! What the heck happened? I haven't been on here in a while and I see this? I bought mine when AE first made the production run for Amain for like $130. How did this happen?
I've only run mine 1 time and has been shitting on the shelf for...
Finally the Super Astute is next in line for a re release

Back to Super Astute, slight reaming, AE B4 spur slips right on, uses stock SA slipper plates and hardware just fine with AE slipper pads that match spur. Now you have standard pitch to match rest of your pinions.
