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

I have had 5 or 6 Schumacher wings in a row with the overspray film on the side where I normally paint. :? On the first one I thought someone must have loaded the lexan into the press upside down by mistake. Then I got another, and another, and...

I guess I'll kick this new forum into gear. So I pre-ordered my re-release RC10T Classic direct from Team Associated. While I and many others are waiting on the late June shipment, I ordered some Fan RC hard-anodized Team shocks with black aluminum...

It won't be cheap though. only 100 will be made at 246,000 yen (1,684.43 USD at the time of posting)
But damn is it nice looking.

After searching the forum I am still unclear on what the stock wheel sizes are for the following models;

- ‘89 graphite car: 2.0 rear and 2.1 fronts?
- 90 CE: 2.0 front and rear?
- Team car: Did the sizes change over the years? Were they the same...

Hello to all vintage RC enthusiasts,

I'm looking for some help identifying a (carbon?) chassis plate.

There are 2 saddlepack frames labeled 'Schumacher T269', but I cannot guarantee these haven't been drilled afterwards.

The chassis plate has a...

I picked up a Cougar KC recently (love it!) and was wondering if the u4209 alloy vented shock caps would fit my shocks?
Not a big fan of the stock plastic ones, my 22X4 improved greatly when I upgraded it's shock caps to the alloy vented ones....

What's available for spoked 2.2 wheels in offsets for modern buggies that use 12mm hexes?

I know there some fronts for drag car variants that work but the rears are always the weird SCT style wheels.

and JConcepts has some that look like NASCAR...

Answered a FB marketplace ad for a different car, and wound up finding out about this and grabbed it. Still had a NiCad pack and the OG mechanical speed control. Looks to be all original, although it does have bearings instead of bushings. Chassis...

I gave away almost all my old printers, got rid of 6 of the 8. I will keep my Ender 5 plus only because of the volume. After my first print with the X1C I was sold. It just works.

That said, I have had some odd things with the machines. For one,...

Trinity's Evolution 10SS, released in 1992, was the Super Speedway version of the Evolution 10 introduced earlier in the year. Built upon a shorter wheelbase and narrower track width than the Evo 10 the 10SS featured a graphite plate style chassis...

Anyone here into tractor pulling? I have been anxious to get into some sort of local RC competition, but 1:8 buggy racing is out of my skill set, and everything else is just too far away to justify getting into. But, through a FBMP deal this...

The RC10 has such a wide nose plate, it's just like it's made to be tinkered with. So why not do a lay down front suspension?

It bolts up nicely in place and works smoothly. The...

So this Tamiya King Cab was painted 2 years ago when I first started my hunt for them. It was actually my very first find, but unfortunately, the body was painted and backed with black, which turned the supposed bright red into this dark burgundyish...

Hi All, these are my collections, the prototype chassis distributed for Tamiya team drivers in 1991-1993, just wonder if anyone still has parts as I'm still locating the missing pieces to complete them, thanks.

Sorry for those without Facebook access, but Eustace is making an exciting announcement tomorrow

Trinity released its first kit, the Reflex 10, to the booming dirt oval racing market in 1992. With a parts list that reads like a Who's Who of the RC industry the Reflex 10 rode on a Titan TXO graphite plate chassis with Robinson Racing front...

I recently got a PB Mustang X12 - can anyone assist me a with a instruction manual for this please - thank you

I first saw one of these on Tamiyaclub back in 2006. First impressions were, what were they on? :lol:
After much investigation and research, I decided that I would buy one and modify it for running. There's no way I could shelve something this...

Something new I started on. Fanrc chassis kit and a works 91 donor car. Cleaned up the aluminum bulkheads, finishing up on motor mount and the caps are painted and drying. Next rebuild diffs with new pulleys and install with new 2mm pitch belts.

Thought I would share a quick fix that turned out better than I expected for my Boomerang. I got this car a while ago used and it has always been missing the plastic pin for the battery door. I haven't felt right paying current prices for a new E...

ACE Hardware & Hobbies - Parts & Pricing Guide Vol.2

This catalog doesn't contain a date, but I believe it's from the early '90s. ACE Hardware touts itself as being America's largest gas hobby supplier at the time. Who knew?!

I picked up some clearance bin Losi sct22 cva’s they are the correct length for the rc10t with stock arms IMG_4333.jpeg

They are 5mm instead of a 3/16 axle
I am using losi xxx4 rear option hub that had the hinge pin reamed out to 1/8”

They fit...

Before I hijack another thread I was curious about Ball bearings.

They used to be a very expensive upgrade and now they are a commodity. It's actually cheaper to get avid bearings vs associated bushings.

I know that there are steel bearings,...

We're going racin' again !!

This time with an RC10T3 which isn't my favorite truck but on paper it's ideal for vintage racing. The SRT will sit on the sidelines for now.

Many thanks to Alex for selling me this blank canvas to work with. So far...

I'm trying to find information on these alloy wheel on a Javelin I picked up last year. I've searched online and not yet turned up any certain matches.

One possibility is Pargu except I haven't seen a two-tone like the ones on his ebay site...

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...

It's been awhile since I've posted here, but I wanted to share my latest project... Kyosho Mini Z buggy (MB010). Recently, a new shop, with a track, opened down the street from me. These guys are serious about doing things right, and having a good...
