Thank you both

Not sure about those places but team KNK carries the FanRc molded parts and they are good people (and the prices are quite affordable!) https://teamknkhardware.com/668-fan-rc Not any more. I wonder what happened. Who is carrying FanRC RC10 parts now? EDIT: Okay, I found it. That link doesn't work. ...

Has a been a long long time since I raced RC10's..............was purely a stock guy. Just bought the Team car and realizing that spare parts are not available, I am interested in buying MIP CVD set for this one. I just do not know which one of the 2 that MIP makes fits this car. I would sure apprec...

I'm glad i bought 2 of these plus spare parts for a complete rebuild if needed. I got 1 from RCMart back when they were selling for less than 500.00 and the 2nd one from a seller in LA that didn't realize he had to build it. Amazing how many have probably sold though. I have no intention of selling ...

Doug I don't know about "far from perfect" :mrgreen: That looks as fine as frogs hair split three ways. Another great XLR8 build! Chuck hahaha.... Thank you Chuck -- spoken like a true Texan. :lol: The only benefit I can find for using a nearly 20 year old Olympus digital camera with only...

Thank you for the quick reply.

3 -5,000 mah packs in hard case had me opening the cases and removing the inner foam protection and then trim the hard case to gain 3mm.

The Ultima i just ordered

What Lipo fits the Ultima?

You had to buy a whole kit to keep the suspension arms that seemed to go away quickly due to the goofy front shock geometr...

The 17.5t motors are a little more...

Are there metal gears available?

Please reply back on what you think of the tape.

You could also use a longer screw in that hole if parts are not available. 2mm longer will work.

Doug,
You do indeed do nice work.
I'ts a pleasure just to read thru this thread.
Makes me want to buy a lathe and follow along.

Thanks for the encouragement everyone! The traditional "pile of parts" photo. Pile o parts.JPG Anyway, enough shelfers, this one's gonna be a runner. It will get dirty, scratched, beat up, and maybe even broken but it's definitely not going on the shelf. :lol: LOL....mmmmkay I ran out of ...

Definitely locked into this thread.
very cool
