A template is not a bad idea. I think I'm going to do this tomorrow so I dont have the time for snail mail. LOL Thanks anyway. I'm sure I can lay down a straight edge with tape or something. I was just looking for photos as to how far down other people have cut theirs.

I'm rebuilding my RC10. The chassis that I have has had a chunk cut out of it from it's previous owner. In an attempt to smooth out the side I have heard that some people cut the sides of the chassis down. Does anyone here have a photo of one like that?

Thanks for the link.

Does anyone have a photo of something else that they have used?

Well I screwed up and broke the servo saver in my RC10 gold pan buggy. Are these still avaible? My manual says it's part number #6255. If not...then what will work?

The rear tires on this RC10 are all but bald. Are they worth hanging onto? I know the rims will be reusable but what about the tires? Does anyone keep them just cause the are original?

Will you be enjoying the joys (frustration?) of the resistor speed control? Everyone needs to go there at least once. :wink: LOL... Oh no....that was the first thing to come off. Wanna buy it? LOL Actually that is the other part of this equasion...In order to run it I will have to put even more mon...

I got this RC10 from a friend. It was in very dirty condition when I got it although it all seemed to be there. I thought that I would rebuild it and make a runner out of it. I tore the 6 gear transmission apart and found that it needed to be completely rebuilt so I did adding all new bearings in pl...

Ok...so I have this old Associated RC10 buggy that I'm tryng to get up and running. It has an old Airtronics radio that surprisingly still works great. The receiver antennae is in the upright tube but over the years it some how got bent real bad and about 6 inches of it just broke off. The rest of t...

I would like to find a RC10T2. Why do I not see very many of these for sale?

Yes that is the article that I linked to.

This is all good to hear. I'm feeling better now. LOL

Ok...my mistake. The article says 15 seconds not 30, but even that seems like a stretch.

I edited my original post.

Ok...I've started working on my RC10 buggy. The first thing I did was rebuilt the 6 gear tranny. I replaced all the bushings with bearings, added new idler gears and cleaned out any and all dirt and debris. I finished it last night and I have to admit I was quite proud of myself as to how smooth it ...
