RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

I hate to keep derailing the thread with my Blackfoot talk. But I was thinking that maybe it was the Blackfoot QD model they sold as I think the regular Blackfoot was probably only a kit model. And the reason I believe it was the Blackfoot and not some other Nikko monster truck is I feel like I rem...

Hello All! I picked up and refreshed a T4 this week, and while doing so, my gold pan kept eyeing me from across the room wondering why I have never given it any love. It truly got to me, so now it is time to show it some! It has only been sitting around for twenty years. :roll: I don't have a good b...

I will say that if someone offered one for sale at $500 I would not be a buyer, and yet I wouldn’t sell mine for $700. I am a terrible flipper lol. You're killing capitalism!!! :D I hear what you are saying, and your experience is what I was looking for. You have confirmed that what I am looking at...

Sometimes using a slightly weaker plastic is a benefit. Some may call this a failed printed wheel hub adapter. I call it a servo saver! I mean, when you hit a brick wall at 3/4 throttle, something has to give!

Maiden voyage went well outside of the Monster Jr 27T not happy at all and letting some of its smoke out. It also got about million degrees. I got rid of most of my motors awhile back, but am looking to see if I have anything around that would be more suited for the task. Waiting to get another body...

Congrats!!

New Years 2009 was my last cigarette after about 20 years smoking.

Given perfect conditions for the vehicle, tomorrow morning, and of course having the day off, what RC four wheeled vehicle would you take out for the most fun? Carpet car, you found a track with brand new carpet free to play on. Buggy / truggy, you found a perfect dirt course with perfect grip. Craw...

Quitting was easy for me once I came to a solid honest conclusion. "I have to quit smoking or I will die early of lung cancer." That simple. Once you actually accept that, and let it sink in, and KNOW it, it really isn't hard to do (I know many will think that is BS). I had tried quitting ...

Took USPS 15 days to get it halfway across the state, but my re-re finally made it.

.i would have to go with my little custom Axial SCX10 bucking Bronco.

That thing is beautiful!

I started into a SCX10 Bronco myself last week. Slightly later model.....

Good package week this week! Thursday's haul (not dog, she was already here, although we did bring her home on a plane so kinda like post)

Just checking, but did you zero the calipers with the depth gage. On my cheaper calipers, the jaws and depth gage don't zero together. It is about .2 mil out. My pic was showing a red line to indicate the inside surface of the hex recess, which is where I'd start measuring the offset, to the lip of...

Forget going shiny! It is way too blingy, and just impossible to keep that way. Scuffed-up aluminum is the way to go!
