When do you think the parts would be available? Very interested in this

Thanks mate!
The parts will be available within 2/3 weeks.

Oh so fine, love it just like that. It really came together, nicely done. Thanks a lot!! I stepped away from new tires, cause after cleaning the original ones, i thought this was more “correct”. The JConcepts body was the one i had in stock, and when looking at this one twice, I really saw the car ...

Restoration project finished! What a fun one!! This car was a bit of a mess, and not put together very correct. In the end, all parts where there. Bought this one from the first owner. The car has been driven, but not a lot (as you see on the tires, and some minor scratches on the chassis) Only need...

Fantastic build, love the photos. Do you know what body and paint scheme your doing for it ? What tires do you plan on using ? Will use the Mirage body for it, and probably a sort of box art theme, with modern effect.. orso.. haha. Will need to let me inspired a bit for that. Tires i need to order ...

Okay, Been working on this little project again.. lately being busy with some others, but back to the RC10 fun again! Haha. Did a full clean on all the parts, had been waiting on two original bolts which where off, and put it all together again. Sorted out some of all the extra bits which came along...

Since i told last week, i am in Quarantine currently... So, finished another project in between... ☺️ Meet the “MIX21’ Cougar” I wanted to tribute the Masami NIX91’ but then Schumacher style-ish.. 😉 Maybe you hate it, maybe you love it.. that’s up to you! Marshky did another design again for the fro...

Right... finished the build!! For this part, the car is completed as the initial build. For now, we will start doing the test on the tracks in the coming weeks. (Currently not possible due to a Covid-19 infection, so need to stay at home for minimum a week sadly enough.. i’m ok though✌🏼) For now, a ...

Some details again... (i love it, and hate it..)

Replaced the black plastic cover (template) with 1mm carbon fibre.
After, covered the wires with some black nylon wrap to protect them.

Was this essential? Not for technical reasons i guess, it just helps my OCD being friendly to me!

Wondering how the bottom looks like? (IMO not the greatest looking photo’s.. haha) Here you see the mounting of the front suspension plate, with the EXP logo printed in it.. ☺️ Also the rear bumper is more visible here. (We are thinking about a small change on the rear bumper, to have more ground cl...

Details.. I had to adjust the steering hub because there was a slight difference in the used axle hub (double bearing 10mm castle axle) compared to the original Cougar hub. The little knob was slightly bigger, resulting the EPA was off. Filed away the knob, and added an M3 bolt in the alloy C-Hub wi...

Thanks a lot!
I have to say, it wasn’t always easy, but this Covid-19 thing did helped a bit regarding time... !

The wheels..... Right, the wheels are mounted! 😁 Did some other slight mods, especially the steering was off. Found the problem, ánd the solution.. haha. If you notice, the front shock tower is currently changed. The one we designed was 7mm too low. So for now we fitted a Fibre-lyte C2W one, which u...

Done with the wiring... Placed all the electronics, and did some soldering. Made a quick cover to stack away the servo cables, this will be replaced with some carbon. I know some wires could be shorter, but i like how they are all guided now. I did a quick test, and everything works! 😅 Have a look, ...

In between just a few pictures to have a better look at the car for now.
I need to start working on the electronics, and needs some “planning” to fit it all..

Hope you like some of these snapshots...
