Ok. I have a set in the package that came new in package old stock. I guess I will be cracking them open lol.

I'm really not interested is trying to make a faithful replica of anyone else's car, but the Dead Pool RC10 is a street based RC10 with my favorite Corvette body so I definitely need one as a runner (probably without real explosive charge, even though that would be so cool!). This is kind of a perfe...

My wife asked me if I could do some tick removers for the poney club... I found one on Printables ( https://www.printables.com/model/153838-tick-remover ). It is easy to print, and my wife used a few already succesfully. I reworked it to include the poney club logo and a hole to be able to fix it to...

Well, I'd say "You don't see that everyday." but really you do. Their acceleration and suspension is pretty impressive around curves actually.

I think I totally forgot to mention here that I got lucky to find a Shogun with its box in much better state than the first one a few months ago... https://i.imgur.com/XPhVlYr.jpeg The bodyshell is in good state, but it certainly needs a new paintjob: the paint is leaving by flakes here and there, s...

A good days work , I have a love/hate relationship with body painting. This is exactly the term to use : love/hate relationship :-) And while I have a lot of things to help with the Silhouette Cameo 4, the Thunderbird Coors is complex if you want to make it right... And while I tend to move away mo...

Got the body sanded, 400 grit to 3000. https://i.imgur.com/HQjyJEt.jpg The putty will get another going over with the sanding sponges tomorrow, as well as finishing removing the mold issue on the body above the fenders. https://i.imgur.com/rq3uCM3.jpg The Fine primer got here today, looking forward ...

It took the whole afternoon... I set everything in the table so I have reference points... https://i.imgur.com/CGwLi9Z.jpeg I first used the copier to laid some key stickers on the side to understand where to put the lines. The other body on the table is an original one, and it is slightly bigger, s...

Another one of my catdog

Well, it's been a few months since our precious Louie left us, so time for a new four-legged bundle of bark. This is Rudy , a 2 1/2 year old Kelpie. 20240316_165039.jpg We adopted him from a home where he was pretty much locked outside all day, and locked in the laundry all night, with NOTHING in be...

Finally built up a clod to race with and raced with the MMRC yesterday. The 17 turns were not keeping up well in the pro-mod setup. I had a ton of fun though.

Had an old original Clodtalk decal so I had to add it!

I took the RC crawler to Clifty Falls (Madison IN) and saw this little guy sunbathing.

I texted the pic to my wife and told her I couldn't believe my luck, finding a giant turtle and a giant quarter on the same day. She didn't get it.

That Coors T-Bird body looks fantastic. I'm not a fan of the Shogun box-art though. The silver and gold just don't seem to go well together. Well, to be honest, black and gold might be enough and better, actually, and very JPS inspired :) (that's the plan if I succeed to save the original body) Tod...

Dadio made a nice conversation kit using RC10 front arms. I might eventually go that direction, but I'm not quite there yet. I need to fumble around a bit with this inferior setup first. Once I get the steering servo centered and the steering geometry sort of consistent with suspension movement, the...
