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

Wow it's been a while since I posted any updates. I have had a new router for a couple years and using it along with my SO3. This router is a rack and pinion 48"x48" with a 2.2kw water cooled spindle. I was loading up 36x48 sheets for a while. With taking over VintageRC and cutting so much...

..and schumacher... and Yokomo. It would make them easier to find and probably a good time to do it while there are few posts.

Generic stuff or specific stuff?

Well things and stuff mostly

Whoa, whoa, whoa, there Kimosabe!! Things are completely different than stuff, and they're not interchangeable!

Turns out a user here on RC10Talk had the exact Shiny CVD bone I was looking for, I won't have to try and repair the cracked one now.

Thanks so much!

Was searching ESC's for the RC10B4 Factory Team and found this LRP SXX Stock Spec V2. Also picked up a Tekin Speed Star 412P for the Traxxas SRT. And some no clue super clean motor with a Trinity Ex Tech label and purple Epic end bell, but its cool looking and nice enough to justify $35. Seller stat...

Got some old skool 1:12 parts in the mail, to start making a recent acquisition look a little better. NIP front and rear Yokomo / ASSociated foams, 12L rear wing (well, mostly just a flat bit of lexan!), a NIP front bumper, and some spur gears. All came together, for what I consider a good price. 20...

Looking down the front straight at Indy.

Using Dadio's "two ways" theory. I view the golden age as being when I was involved in the hobby from introduction until I left for military service. So '87ish to '93ish. RCCA, trips to the hobby shop, finding workarounds for broken parts in the oldman's shop, Sundays at the track then win...

Bingo! ....Same time frame, same situation. I've been trying to find my niche ever since.

Today I took the time to publish my tires on cults3D with as clear as possible explanation on how to proceed to print them...

Spent some time the last few weeks making the Factory Works Fox chassis better. I was never completely happy with version 1, the wonky stock steering was carried straight over and the crazy Ackerman just drives me nuts. The v2 now has our ball bearing steering kit slid in there with the entire front...

For a shelfer build! BNIB!

My old car has been taken apart and get i really good service.

A visual representation of me approaching 50. Transitioning from a fun grocery getter / dog carrier to a not so much fun one.

Last year I would have said my Top CAT, but the buyer saved it for 30-ish years and gave it back with a bonus Storm 2000. My biggest regret has to be when I gave away a CAT 2000 (including a boat load of parts) and a very nice Losi XX back in the early 2000s. I thought I was "done with RC"...
