I've just been getting back in to RC the last few months, so I'm getting caught up on what I missed the last 20+ years.

I'm looking for a rather inexpensive 1/10 on road chassis for this HPI '67 vette body.

What I've come to find out lately, is...

Last post

Looks pretty close. My Mom loves her new little RC '67 vette, but has to learn to drive on this little slower Bus first. Working up to the faster one.

The white hood stinger decal should be here next week sometime, from MCI, I'll get the pics...

I'm trying to get a certain color for a 1/10 '67 Corvette body. I can't find the exact color match in Tamiya, or Duratrax polycarb spray paints.

I've seen some people say that if the inside of a lexan body is roughed up with a green pad to produce...

Last post

Said I'd provide the 976 Marina Blue Metallic paint color match, with the real one, here it is.

Pretty close match, and it could be the real thing that's a bit off. Happy with the outcome, overall.

The auto paint over the PS-55...

So, inspired by MXACRES on YouTube I’m building a Bandit from the ground up because I figure if I bought the buggy whole, I’d wind up replacing everything eventually, so why not just build it from the ground up with good parts to begin with(?)....

Last post

Replaced the Yokomo shocks with the 7461x GTR shocks on the front end. Had to modify it by using Yokomo shock bottoms since the Traxxas ones were too thicc for the Bandit arms. Spaced out at the shock tower by about 10mm.

Traxxas shocks are...

Ok. I have been a Tamiya collector for a long time. I got my first car, the Grasshopper 2, in 87.

Life and a marriage implosion got in the way a few times but I have always come back.

Here are some pics I took.

I have an RC10 Trackmaster transmission that needs a little work but has a lot of potential. However the big hurdle is it needs outdrive cups. Anyone found outdrive options that will work with it? Preferably something affordable. I am kinda cheap....

Ours are hardened and would be a serious pita to drill out. Ill check bone fitment shortly but from memory the bones fit fine, maybe a tad loose but definitely usable

If you're not changing resins and don't have the printer near a window you don't even need to drain the vat unless you're going several months with it not in use.

A while ago I picked up my son a Traxxas Slash kit for his birthday to introduce him to a proper hobby build. The build made me reminisce of the Traxxas Hawk 2 and Traxxas TRX-3 I had back in the day, before I stepped away from the hobby years ago....

As for durability, the main casualty was the rear lower shock mounting screw tore out of the hole of the arm. I anticipated possible issues with the strength of PLA, so I was not too surprised (I printed out several spares). It gives me incentive to...

Got a suggestion from a buddy who had run a Lazer on that track before with velvet shocks. He had run 600cst front and 400cst rear.

Would that be something that might work for my case as well?
