Re: Kyosho Outrage

Thanks so much Lowgear Can't take a lot of credit for the original condition of the car. The car almost looks as if it has never been run. Tires look excellent and so does the belly. No scuffs from being upside down, not a scratch. I did start with thorough cleaning and re-lubing, which was not tota...

Kyosho Outrage

I acquired this car quite a while ago. It is in very good condition. Required very little clean up and tidying up. Came with the original body and no scratches on it's belly. The body quality is very poor with many bumps and imperfections. But it is most probably original. Kyosho Outrage.1.JPG Kyosh...

Re: Playtron Doberman

I mocked up some tires to kind of simulate to original tires. Finding decent original tires is probably out of the question. All the tires on the playtrons I've seen seem to suffer the same hardened and flat spotted failure my tires showed. I had to glue the fronts just like the original tires I rem...

Re: Playtron Doberman

Reassembled after a thorough cleaning. Repaired broken servo mounts from underside with small strips of lexan and CA. The mounts were probable broken because a previous owner had frozen the broken servo saver with CA. Could still need a bit more clean up on the belly and battery area. playtron dober...

Not sure if this is what you're referring to... For the longest time I would return to the home page by using the left ( go back ) arrow on the left side of the address bar, that does not seem to clear the notification for that post I just viewed. I now try to use the RC10talk logo to return to the ...

Re: Losi JRXT - Looking for Information on my "New" Truck

Looks like you have a Losi hydra drive on the truck. It should have a slipper also. Take a look at Dan's site OLDRC.COM / Sabula Tech. http://www.vintagelosi.com/Instructions_files/HydraDrive_A3100_1.pdf Try not to put too much power to the trans. The diff can have a tendency to slip, get too hot an...
