Re: Thorp 64 pitch gears - what are the disadvantages

What Jeff said. While the brushless might be around the same top speed they are much more aggressive at lower RPMs. Remember electric motors produce 100% of their torque at start up which can decimate 64p gears pretty easily, especially if there's jumps involved.

Re: Looks like AE is going to actually have vintage parts support

I guess we'll need to wait to see what parts they will offer. I have mixed feelings about this. Competition is good for consumers and we need AE back in the game but the market for vintage RC10 parts is relatively miniscule and I wonder if there's room for two. I worry about companies like FanRC who...

Re: Officially an RC10 owner

congrats on your first one! At this point you might as well make room for more :mrgreen: ! K I've got my nearly complete 93 worlds gold pan build taking up all the space on my dining room table... 8w9rg6.jpg Are those RPM front arms? Reasonably sure it's a RPM 91 worlds conversion. It was listed as...

Old Clod 2

So I picked up a nice Clod 2 RTR it has the stock motors and an EVX2 speed control, what are the best motors to use with this ESC. I have the CPE aluminum axle shafts on the way, is there a major benefit to switching to the metal gears since it will be apart? If so how do I know what sizes to get ec...

RPM Ultra Molded RC10

After wanting one of these as a kid 30+ years ago after seeing the magazine ad, I was finally able to build an Ultra Molded buggy. Just added a few period mods but nothing too crazy. I was so tempted to add some stickers to this blank canvas, but it looks just too good to cover up. :lol: - MIP CVD's...

Re: Jegs Holeshot truck and Stinger buggy info

Jegs still has parts for it. Also parts from the Geforce Genova fit but those are hard to come by stateside.

Re: RC10 Graphite rebuild - the doom buggy rides again

A quick update I decided I needed something better than the vintage 75MHz Airtronics if I'm going to drive the buggy and thought 'buy once, cry once', so: buy-once-cry-once.jpg I added the Flysky FS-CVT01 i-bus voltage sensor so I can monitor my lipo battery charge since the vintage Tekin ESC has no...
