Decided to update my goldpan DS build with one of the new 6001 chassis that I picked up.

Hi All, just after a bit of advise, is it possible to use other shock shafts and seals in associated hard anodised shocks, am I correct in assuming that the diameter of the imperial shock shaft will be different to a metric shock shaft and then therefore the orings will be a different size to Tamiy...

Hi all, New member here in the Indy area. Mine is a classic "I found our childhood cars in the basement" story. Got the DS and T2 up and running with updated transmiter/receivers ("They don't have crystals anymore?!"). 25 years later and these are still fun, and my boys are havi...

Thanks all. I'll add some pictures in due course - looks like HIEC format photos from an iPhone don't work on here. @JosephS, are you referring to the white nylon for the battery holder, or simply all of the white nylon? Even compared to my DS and T2, this car does seem brittle! I mean all of the w...

I have a vacation planned for Japan in the near future and was thinking to myself that it'd be cool to pick up something R/C related there that we don't have back home in the states. So why not ask you folk? What would be a good R/C to pick up that isn't readily available in the US? Decals and stic...

That's 6% so far. As more people vote that will go down... On the bright side... you don't have a Tamiya or Duratrax in the fight... :lol: It doesn't matter what I have, the building and collecting skills of the folks here is legendary. My builds have gotten good, but there is something next level ...

I'll go back to it, but I never said to complete it. :lol: I think my biggest problem is I chase an unobtainable level of perfection on builds, then get frustrated and lose interest. :? We do tend to become prisoner to our eccentricities. I tend to be anal-retentive with work, striving for perfecti...

I am building up a gold pan Ds and decided to dig though some of the parts I got from local store junk boxes.

The apex molded suspension link kit 31419 appears to be reasonable lengths for the rc10 DS front end.

The diff spring is/was different from the slipper spring. It seems that at some point ae just started using the diff spring for the slipper. All that too say the diff spring should work for the slipper. The custom works parts can still be found at original prices. I’ve been using those to save my ca...

decals that look original for about the price of an mci sheet.

IMG_2961.jpeg This is my 2016 Chris Van Air rc10t reproduction. This is based off the rc10t that won a nonvintage race in 2016 at Hot Rod Hobbies. Chris was kind enough to help me nail all the details and Jeremy from ‘off the grid ‘ rc paint made me an exact copy of the design he did for Chris. Her...

I got a couple of coats of clear on a carbon chassis and started fitting some of the fan rc parts to it.

Here it is today. Only the bumper is the same. IMG_3018.jpeg IMG_3019.jpeg Just gave it a shakedown run. I need to find a place flat enough for it to run. I haven’t driven a car this low before and it’s a perfectly clean gold pan. I have 2 bodies to decide between. I have the mustang ds body and the...

That Cat is pretty great build and is getting a lot of love. I think the key to wait for January after everyone is to busy to post their builds.
