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

Hi, I'll add a little here. We started a vintage class at York (UK) for pre 1990 cars, but with a few rules. Limited to a 20 turn motor (to protect some of the weaker transmission cars), control tyre (good wear rate), period electronics where possible. The last round of the championship was last nig...

No worries.

I just need one more car to push me over 50, then I'll have to round it up to 60!

Sell it to me, I really need another car!

G

I'll play, but I'm in the UK

I think the rear shock mount is a custom piece.

BTW, the car has TQ'ed and won every round of the Championship so far!

There isn't a fluid on earth that doesn't change viscosity with temperature change.

But shear thinning is a whole different thing

G

They are out of ALL the tub chassis shells! I was just about to get a couple

I'm well pissed now.

You know when you stir paint, it gets thinner? Its viscosity decreases, well so does silicone, and it gets worse the higher viscocity (@25 degrees) it is. Shampoo does it, as does non drip gloss, thats why it doesn't drip!

G

Silicone doesn't change much, but it changes.
I heard of another oil that is better but is unavailable in high viscosities.

Silicone also has another problem, it is 'shear thinning' like paint Not ideal really.

G

Silicone oils change viscosity with temperature too, AE lie on the label

G

I actually measured the viscocity of AE 30wt and Losi 30wt and it was almost identical.

G

AE oil is silicone oil.

G

I have a 350D, nice piece of kit.

G

Hoopty if you want to part with it, let me know!
Seriously.
