This was a pretty fun build all nib parts.

Hi there, my name is Chris and I am from Stuttgart, Germany. I got into RC cars at around five years old with a Tamiya Rising Storm XB. Never really liked the looks of it but sure had a blast driving it. Still own it but every time I attempt to restore it I put it back on the shelf after two minutes...

Still waiting on parts for the build. Painted shell and wing first for a change.

Hi everyone!! New guy here and excited to get back into RC with my kids. I’m in my 40’s so these buggies were my first love. I’d watch my neighbor for hours jumping his RC10 on the sidewalk. My parents got me a first gen Ultima. Loved it. Lol. Later, I got into nitro and vintage Tamiya before the ki...

Going through some stuff i realized I had an extra set of truck threaded shock bodies. The shocks on this car weren't a matching set and on top of that the silver front bodies don't seem to seal up to the newer style of cartridges very well. I needed an excuse to use my new ultrasonic cleaner so I c...

Parts arriving! Once I get the standoffs I can start work on the front end attachment blocks.

Just arrived. Nicer than I even hoped. I'm chasing a childhood want that I never got then. Got a few others on the way to make runners out of. I'm scared to even take this one apart

Ok swapped out rear tires to match the fronts.

Not an expert on this subject at all, but an ESC that I was introduced to recently is definitely my favorite so far, simply for its programmability. The Zeta Micro. Via a dipswitch programmer, the following can be set or adjusted: Trigger Start Position, Trigger Full Position, Trigger Start Brake Po...

I just got home to this. I've been searching for a brand new Pit Wizard since 2017. This one is fresh out the wrapper, and includes an esc. I'm quite happy!

Note - I never realized how big these are. I was surprised by that.

FYI: For driving/racing oriented builds, as you've mentioned the Stealths and RC10T are getting more scarce/costly, I am currently working on two new OPTION gearbox casings to give people a choice: B2/B3/T2/T3 --> I think they all use the same gears - but I'm modelling using B2 and T2 gears --> the...

generic 1/8" "external" retaining rings. Parma and others sold them back in the day but a place like McMaster Carr sells them as they are just common industrial hardware.

Picked up this lightly used b2 roller that I tore down cleaned up and added new front tower and new rear tires and bearings to the steering. I will replace some other parts as I go as well as some of the hardware.

HFT has them also. https://www.harborfreight.com/300-piece-external-retaining-ring-assortment-67655.html

Ok I have almost all parts needed to build my Kinwald worlds rc10 now minus correct rear wheels and 1/4 inch MIP cvds.
