Got the EXODesign carbon fiber chassis with white wheels for the Re Re 870/YZ10, and possibly Works 91 (picking up Saturday). I like the box, pretty nice. Going to go with Cliff Lett 90s ROAR car as a theme, as it was what inspired the paint scheme (team car) I ran when I had my original YZ10. Which...

Looks like Boki, TeamBluegroove and RRP (NIP) have YZ-10 bodies. Picked up my Works 91 Re re kit. Going to make room on car workbench to lay this stuff out more.

Well, look what came in the mail today. After getting the 'well, might as well get these now before can't' bug, I was looking for the 91 NIX setup from grandprix3d (on the way soon) I noticed this chassis set. After my original RC10 gold pan, then the graphite team car (both covered here), I had the...

Nothing in the instructions that looks like that kit, but there is hardware to mount shocks but no shock bushings. Mine is the reg shock version, not big bore. Should be able to use the stock parts in kit with this. Ill take a picture of all the parts laid out.

Well, the kit wont build itself... might as well build while watching TV. I usually build in garage, but cars dont take up as much space as hydro or airplane... :D Although I did build a nitro heli in living room one time, but I did ask the wife! :D Here is supplement and the parts in conversion kit...

Well, this was last night. I had to quit as my back was hurting and it was late. A few miscues, but I do like the sequence of order regarding the bags in the build. Question for those that have built sealed diffs like this, do I coat the gears with enough of the 5000 lube, or empty the bottle in bot...

The black cases, I couldnt tell if there is a fill line. Didnt notice in instructions. But Ill fill to the cross over pins. Anyway, got as far as I could today as I have questions that need fitting....I didn't feel like messing with shocks. The EXODesign kit is nice, its all installed now. Using rea...

Decided to build the Works 91 (always wanted one) while figuring out the EXOdesign 870/YZ10 in other thread. Most know the obvious differences from the 870/yZ10, arms, C hubs, chassis plate. But I can say in addition, the aluminum bulkheads feel smoother, the internal planetary gears are black with ...

Finished up the roller. Just need to decide/collect the electronics side of things and waiting on painted body and order from rubrix.com. Once the weather is more consistently warmer here in the PNW, I will start painting all the bodies I need painted for these projects. I found it a pleasant build,...

Looking over the RCCA article and the build in the Yoke section, I forgot I needed to convert (or try) to AE rod ends. And I just couldn't pass up getting a proper fit Jammin Jay Upper deck from Factory Works. I tried swapping it out, but it was too tight. Took off the front tower to compare the ext...

Does anyone make an underbody for those RPM worlds kits? I think i saw that TBG who makes bodies and such has (had?) an underbody for RC10... More progress, got in some AE parts and Viper body with decals from ebay from new team car. Im still in middle of my Yoke builds and waiting on the long arms...

I realized I hadn't updated this with it all together. I went with the spare body as Neil Cragg from the 2007 worlds as my inspiration. But the Worlds body, since no one offers a repop of it, I gave to a painter to do Masami's paint as no way I'm attempting it. I still want to test run it indoors, a...

While cleaning and organizing the hobby area of my car parts, I noticed this Kaizen kit for the TC4. Thier website is no more, but the Facebook page is still up, with some good info on shocks etc. A few bits of info on rctech in on road section as well. I had pulled parts from this RTR TC4 that I've...

Already have the book, so this showed up from GP3D in Australia.... my precious.....

This is the best time, outside of the 84-95 timeframe, for vintage RC cars. Back then, we got the original parts and lived the life. Now, we have resources to copy our favorite builds, just harder to find (and perhaps cost) to build those replicas. I messaged Tacoma RC that I wanted a kit. He said &...
