Re: Project RC10 T3
nice job on bringing the 'ol b3 back to life, I am contemplating doing the same with mine. thanks for posting Thanks, it was fun...and quite a bit easier than the 10T....I really do like T3s. I remember when it came out and was all composite and so different than the other's I had...I knew I had to...

Re: Project RC10 T3
Hi, thanks...the colors are nice and bright so it is easy to see coming and going. And yes, the 10T is powder coated lime green.

Re: Project RC10 T3
OK, shocks came in and I "painted" the body...WOW...I have not painted in forever. I was not comfortable using my airbrush...just been way too long...but now I have ANOTHER project. I have never used masks before so I thought I would give it a try. Pretty much the only part that worked...b...

Re: Project RC10 T3
Thank you....I actually really like the T3...pretty light and tight. I hope the shocks come in soon. Then it is on to electronics.

Re: Project RC10 T3
Hey thanks for writing. I was having a heck of a time getting the pin out of the gear shaft and the drive hubs were way worse than I first thought. Since I want to go brushless/lipo in my drivers anyway, I figured I would just start with this one, after reading your comment. So I ordered a new T4 tr...

Project RC10 T3
OK...so everyone was right...After fixing up and bringing the not quite dead, but close, back to life...VERY difficult to sell...so while I am enjoying the greenie and wondering if I will sell, I found this beauty in the garage. So it is my next project. Not only am I cleaning up stuff and making ro...

Re: my custom RC10GT
Looks awesome. Are you gonna run it? Because the only suggestions I could give if you are is metal on metal tends to part ways with vibration. I've heard that, on different models, the all aluminum looks cool but does not perform very well...I am speaking mostly from RC helis, but also some micro tr...

Re: RC10T Cheap rebuild update
Well guys, I think it is pretty close now. A few small parts, original front bumper, and the bottoms of the shocks are coming in the mail. The white ball cups are all brittle, I have some black RPMs...but I am going to look for some titanium turnbuckles. I would like to anodize them myself...so I ha...

Re: RC10T Cheap rebuild update
It is a strange looking body...they both are...but they may actually fit my thinking. But I did find my original body from gotta be over 20 years ago...here is a pic...I kind of want to just use it as is...but just so I can paint I might get something else...

Re: RC10T Cheap rebuild update
I searched in here and only found mine...butt ugly? Perhaps I had better see what they look like first...I'm in no rush...just you know when you get a paint scheme in your head, ya kind of want to go...I will search out...if you happen upon one, please send it my way.
Thanks again,
T.

Re: RC10T Cheap rebuild update
Awesome Todd, Thanks...I was just telling my wife as I was posting this, that she needs to do searches on her forums before she asks questions...she is new to some shotgun forums...I guess I don't listen to myself when I speak...Thanks for the quick reply.

Re: RC10T Cheap rebuild update
I'm still working on it. I kind of have a paint scheme in my head now and I think I would like to go with a new body style....Does anybody know if the Proline Bull Dog or JC Punisher, both for the RC10T4.1, would fit? I have also given in and got new turnbuckles...I cleaned up the others, but they w...

Re: RC10T Cheap rebuild update
For something other than the typical off-road truck body, I think the McAllister #240 "Modified Coupe" looks great on a truck chassis. (P.S.: Don't sell the guitars.) :mrgreen: That is pretty sweet looking...not sure if I could make it fit...thanks though, gives me a whole lot more to con...
