How much is a NIB World's RC10 worth to you?

So I'm in Hong Kong on vacation and spotted a new World's re-release rc10 at a local shop. First time I've seen a NIB rc10 (I was late to the re-re period.) They're asking a cool $650usd. Are these really worth that much these days? How much were the re-re when they came out? How much would you pay?...

Re: RC10 Cadillac A-Stamp Restore Attempt

Good luck with the build! I just rebuilt an A stamp for a runner as well and I'm loving it. I have play in both front and rear suspension at various points, even with brand new parts. In fact, my brand new rear hubs and all control arms produce more play than my old original pieces. But since I'm no...

Imax B6 voltage display?

Hey guys. Since I've had my B6 clone charger I've been wondering about the current voltage display. There's a discrepancy between the main display and the individual cell display. For example, the main display may read 8.39-8.4v while the cell display reads 4.08v /4.08v which clearly doesn't add up....

Re: What steering block is this?

Thanks! Since I have a short arm car, I guess I've had the wrong blocks this whole time. I looked up 6217 though and the block does not look the same as my old one. Did they change the mold at one point? 6217 has a round block and mine are square. Associated 6217 round block s-l640.jpg Mine square b...

What steering block is this?

Hey guys. Just wondering if anyone can identify the steering block I have. I know the black one is Associated 6216 but what is the white one? I can't find it online anywhere. The white one is what originally came with my car. Anyone know where to get new ones? I'll be using the 6216 for now but want...

Re: My A Stamp RC10 resto-mod runner build.

It's been a while. My rc10 has been running along and bashing well. A lipo upgrade has made the car really fly. Love the new technology!

Electronics in. She's almost ready to fly! I love how short the antenna is on this modern receiver. No more ugly giant antenna sticking out of the body!

Re: new viper body

Looks good! I recently did my first paint job in 20 years. Only one colour but it still took me 2 days 😂

Re: Zenith of the brushed pre-lipo esc?

Awesome info thanks! I didn't know it's been so long already since the tides turned on electronics. I'm thinking of trying to buy the "latest and greatest" winning old style system with esc, brushed motor, and battery.

Zenith of the brushed pre-lipo esc?

Getting back into rc for me feels like being put into a deep freeze for 25 years, then suddenly getting thawed and tossed onto the street and seeing flying cars and kids on hover boards. As far as I knew, my Tekin 411 esc was so high tech and new, but at the time I knew that esc companies were devel...

Re: Picture of the day. (Taken by you)

Thanks. Yes, most Porsches this generation (996) and later used bolts. Earlier models used lugs and studs which I MUCH prefer. Wheel bolts are annoying. Interesting.....wheel lug bolts instead of studs/nuts. But I've never turned a wrench on a Porsche. Pardon my ignorance. Looks like a lot of fun. N...
