Re: Things that I sold, and now regret.

When the wife and I were hopping around from apartment to apartment before buying our house, I got tired of moving all of my RCCA mags. So yeah.... 12-13 complete years of magazines (starting in 1990) went in the dumpster. Then all the vintage r/c started a few years later. I'd love to have that day...

Re: Land Speed Rocket Car

Made some headway today...99% of the stuff is just thoughts in my head...but I have the front steering system figured out, which was gonna be a big hurdle...it's a single wheel inside the body in the chassis, and the chassis is very narrow...pics to come soon

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

Not exactly in the post today, maybe 2 - 3 weeks ago but I only took it out of the box today. I bought a Buds Motor Analyzing Dyno to set up a motor station. I know it reads some sort of RPM likely based on voltage but I'd like to set up an optical RPM read out to get a more accurate reading. I also...

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

while this is only a 2 wire servo I think this will look good on a future shelf car. And for 12 bucks it was too hard to pass up.

Re: ** 2024 Tamiya Vintage World Classic - Thunder Alley R/C, Lucama NC - January 12-14 **

Well, recovery from my injuries seems to be taking forever... but I am at least able to walk short distances with a crutch, I still can't use my left arm much but rehab for that should finally start next week.

Re: Best Liquid Mask product?

A few comments based on my own experiences, trial & error... -Don't buy an HVLP gun unless you have a hefty air compressor. Those guns need a LOT of air volume to atomize paint properly, and pancake compressors are far too weak. For better results, buy an LVLP gun, which are pretty similar excep...

And he sent me a message to say that everything works and he is very happy with the possibility to repair his car... It caught me off guard : before I had many downloads, and almost neve...
