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

Posting up two pictures of my runner. First picture of a setup from a race on carpet where only original wheels were allowed. Used a fresh set of Schumacher full spike yellow and removed the spikes for carpet racing. Would really recommend the Schumacher tires for the original Fox wheels - for the U...

Just want to give a second opinion on body work for the Red Fox. The original Fox body is small compared to many other 1/10 scale buggies, and designed to wrap around the original monocoque chassis. As you can see it looks something like a 1/11 scale besides a Protech for the RC10. The Hot Trick kit...

Hi there, really cool to see this Red Fox! I had a Fox in the 80's which soon got a full Hot Trick conversion with RC10 shocks and Thorp drive line. Custom fees and trades profit made Hot Trick awfully expensive here, and to my knowledge I was the only one in Norway to have this platform. Still have...

Welcome! Already understand you are into the JrX2. Looking forward to see your projects

Thank you for the race report, and well done! Really nice to get stories trickling through from various vintage racing events. Is free choice of tires most common where you attend?

Congratulations morrisey0!
Looked at your build thread. Good piece of work, and interesting car

Now I read your question several times, and after careful consideration found it safe to answer :lol: But really I've had some good laughs at myself for seriously jumping on to your comment - you should not have deleted it. No, I don't have any adapter. I just picket out the components yesterday whe...

Thank you both for the input. I'll go for the Novak. Thing is I want the components to be fairly period correct. The only early generation Novak esc I have are the NESC 4 and NESC 1X. The wires are too short so have to resolder. I'll be using the 4 and as you see in the picture the wiring is identic...

So, I haven't settled on electronics and thinking about two alternative routes. A true to manual large steering servo like Futaba S128, and mechanical speed controller with a small servo like S132H + a matching rx. The alternative is a Novak setup, and I've always been fascinated with a pure orange ...

What a shame - you should really have kept it

Just had to take the gearbox apart and check. No, but seriously I thought this comment can't be true (turned out I should have listened the gut feeling), and wondered how I could answer in a polite way. After all you had put some work into showing me the "right" way. Alternatively that it ...

You should swap the right side pinion around, tap it onto the diff tube, fit the large hole washer over pinion flange, and use a teflon diff tube bushing. rc10rhgear.JPG I believe you have misinterpreted the image :?: :D I have built quite a few of these and always the way shown. The right hand pin...

Turning out to be a real slow cooked dish. Nice to not rush through the build and enjoy the adventure - after all there is no hurry with this one.

Like most of you I love this forum because I got into the rc community a long time ago. I enjoy cars both from before and after I was active, but along with dinglem a European eye is reflecting my main interests in rc cars (except for the old stock class cars in the uk... that was queer to me :lol: ...
