RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

Not everyone's cup of tea, but I like the Bandit black chrome wheels. They have a couple different styles. Too bling for many, and I get that. I am sure the chrome would come off easily and you can finish them as you wish. https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-sdwy6qdoez/images/stencil/1280x1280/products/...

Fixed the front end, and installed repop shocks, aluminum bumpers, and aluminum wheels on my SRB. The electronics box is mostly done, so just need to finish that up, and on to the body.

I officially attended my first RC pulling event today! But it was short lived as the group was a bit behind on actually getting started, and I had chores to do so couldn't hang out for very long. The group was experimenting with a new laser measuring system, and no one knew how to actually use it, a...

The Quad/Dirt Bike groups on FB got intolerable for a bit because there were so many "waffles" where people were trying to get $8000 for a clapped $2000 dirt bike. jsA0YeOPXI8 Total props for this post!! I miss Joel, Tom, Crow, and Gypsy so much!! This series was so much fun to watch!!! :D

For the first half of the day today, I got the shingles on, and I am good with how all that turned out. Then I made a materials trip for flashing and siding for the afternoon, and I just didn't like how the whole flashing thing went, and frustration kicked in, and I am just tired of looking at the w...

Now I know where my RC10T money is actually going! From Mr. Fan: "Many customers have asked, since we have almost all aftermarket parts made, when we would be able to provide complete kit with all FanRc parts. Here is the answer! FanRC graphite worlds kit is now available! Key features, - Quali...

The wife just ran into the hobby room, and was like "it's raining, do you have everything you need covered?" I was like, what are you talking about? There is no chance for rain tonight!!! FML

I think we can officially call this the

I have to think there are more "plays" in this one than the last. Would be interesting to know the specs.

Doesn't matter really, if you want in, you gotta get in!!!

Oh, and I could make a lot of progress on this little project on Saturday ................. but I am hoping to attend my first RC truck/tractor pulling event that day! :mrgreen: They have been trying to have their first spring event for the past six Saturdays or so, but rain and (two) holidays keep ...

I have to be honest, I thought today was going to be "the" day for the RC10T release. Through chat a week ago, RCplanet was supposed to get their inventory and have them for sale today. I was given an inactive link that was going to go active as soon as they had them. They don't even have ...

Nope, you're out of cal!!!!

Touche' on there actually being a cal sticker on it though!! You got me!

Just a thought. Could you use 2x6 joist hangers all the way across the wall and delete the beam altogether? Assuming the ends of the sistered 2x6s are butted up against framing...? I just wouldn't care for the 4x4 post there if it wasn't necessary. I maybe / probably could, but at this point, I am ...

Strategy employed!

I love it, and I think some creative uses of the CC plastics are going to be a thing for awhile. I have a chassis idea that I think will be awesome with CC stuff, but it will need to wait for a bit.

Thanks for thinking outside of the box with the clear!!
