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

To design the front tensioner, I installed the base and shaft on my rere and measured how far away it was from the shock tower and how high off the chassis. I then cut cardboard strips and taped them in place to get measurements to put the tensioner in the correct location. But now that I am thinkin...

I had some time to work more on the Ten4. Very challenging build where I am always filing, Dremeling or testing something. It's like the original RC10 build back in 88, lol! Since Shapeways sent the wrong part and I still don't have resolution, i'm basically at a standstill. I used the rere nose pie...

Are you on Facebook? If so hit up Carolina Custom Anodizing. A lot of people swear by them on the Facebook groups..

I emailed them and they wanted a picture of both parts together and a picture of the barcodes. Email was sent immediately and now I'm waiting. I'm tempted to buy two lefts so I have spares ;-) To change subjects, do we need to shim the outdrive and idler in the front gear box? Both have a 0.05"...

Has anyone ordered from Shapeways and received two left steering blocks? I ordered one left and one right and received two rights! Now this project will be delayed further.

With the Columbus Day holiday and being off, I made some progress. Too bad USPS was off also or I would have had my Shapeways delivery and probably close to completed.

I think I finally have all the parts needed to start my Ten4. I wanted something a little different than a pan, and once I saw this AE graphite chassis I had my project! Since the chassis had a few extra holes drilled already, I knew that I wouldn't be destroying a survivor chassis drilling any hole...

All my parts have been printed for a few days except for the tensioner base. One damn part is holding me up Only thing left to determine for me will be the battery mounting solution.

Brian,

Can you change me to hardware only? I won't be needing nosetubes

Parts ordered. Two weeks is too long to wait!

When can we order?

It's not the loss of hearing or not hearing a conversation in a restaurant or cafeteria, it's the damn tinnitus when you're laying in bed or at work and it's dead quiet. If I don't have any background noise it drives me insane.

Not to hijack, but why is the truck esc on a shelf and the buggy on the chassis?

Just got Win10 installed. I keep getting an error stating that gpedit is not installed when trying to open group policy editor. What now?

I might actually have something done this month! Hopefully my paint arrives
