Re: Composite Craft RPM '91 Worlds build thread

The esc and rx are mounted on the chassis, and I have the wires where I want them. I decided to go ahead and work on mounting the body. It's a scoop-less RCPS Turbo Mirage painted by Perry @ SRS Raceway in Scottsdale, AZ back in '93/94. The sharpie around the windows is original and I will not be fi...

Re: Composite Craft RPM '91 Worlds build thread

Paint job is awesome !! Perfect ! Thanks. It's definitely a period correct paint job, and the scheme is really eye-catching. I decided to solder up the electronics last night. I swapped the smaller 13 ga positive wire for a 12 ga since I would have hard wired the battery lead to the single run inst...

Re: Composite Craft RPM '91 Worlds build thread

Today I was able to replace the front 8-32 bellcrank screws with shorter 5/8" aluminum screws. I know I could have taken a cutoff wheel to the existing ones, but I actually needed them for another upcoming build. I finished applying the decals, put the RPM translucent Hydra gear cover on, and s...

Re: Composite Craft RPM '91 Worlds build thread

The vintage Autographics number decals arrived today. At this point I am calling it done for now. Thanks to all that offered advice and contributed parts to the build. :D CC-RPM-Worlds41 (Large).jpg CC-RPM-Worlds42 (Large).jpg CC-RPM-Worlds44 (Large).jpg CC-RPM-Worlds45 (Large).jpg CC-RPM-Worlds46 (...

Re: RC10 Gold Pan - C stamp?

WD40 also works well for removing sticky servo tape and other residue.

I would use the Rooster since it's still period correct. If you had an early 6 gear non-CE then I can see using a msc. By the mid 90's esc's were extremely common and affordable.

Re: ** Build of the Month Contest - November 2023 ** - Winner - jcwrks

Thanks you guys, appreciate the love! Frankentruck all the way for me! What should I use to upload images next time?? It's also worth noting that you may need to resize your pics to be under the 3 MB max file size. On my desktop/laptop I use Image Resizer , but there are free online ones as well. O...

Re: RC10 Gold Pan - C stamp?

The bearings are fine. I'm gonna assume you got the Worlds re-release kit, so you should probably ended up with 4 extra 3/16x3/8 bearings. I bought the kit recommended by @jcwrks, this one https://www.avidrc.com/flexkit/?kit=849&kitname=RC10+Worlds+Car These two bearings are not like anything e...

Thank you to all that took the time to vote. I appreciate the kind words as well. I just need to put forth the same amount of effort to finish my other builds. :mrgreen: I have had a few questions on the rear tires. Here was my real inspiration for using them along with several other hop-ups from th...
