Re: RC150 Questions

The RC200 manual has a great overhead illustration of the car on the front cover, and the bumper template is easy to get and scale from there. Still searching for a RC200 manual. Is it possible to make scans of that manual and post at the 'Scan' section? That would be great. :wink: Let me know if t...

Re: RC150 Build - My First AE 1/8 Nitro Onroad Car

So, from there, it goes just like a pan car. Put together an end, and then put together the other end, then fill in middle. The back and front went together pretty easily; the middle is taking a while. BUILD 1.jpg BUILD 2.jpg For the plates, I just decided to do my own thing. My car was missing the ...

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

A couple of 1/8 AE nitro onroad cars. Went to go buy one, and the seller had another ready to go, so a combo deal was met. :D The original deal. RC200 w/ RPM Disc Brake. Car is broken down, but is 90%+ complete from what I can see; at least all the big stuff is there. RC200 1.jpg Then the add-on dea...

Re: a thread for BambuLab machines

Doug, you need a friend .......................... a friend with a phone. :D You really could just do this with someone else's phone, and then they can delete the app. I forgot I even had it on my phone.

Re: RC150 Build - My First AE 1/8 Nitro Onroad Car

I finally got my cheap CNC to start playing ball by simply lying to it about certain parameters. :D I have to tell it that bits are smaller than they actually are so that it will cut further, and after more testing, this works just fine. I need to see if there is a possibility that I can write this ...

Re: What was I thinking?? The R/C Edition

I went to sell a a few cars off and now I'm here, with over 30 cars... I walked all the rooms about 1-1.5 years ago, and came up with 100+ that are at least rollers. It has only grown from there. I don't try to think about it. To try to count the list of regrets I have made in RC over the past 3ish...

Re: RC150 Build - My First AE 1/8 Nitro Onroad Car

Bit of an informational post. If you are new to the RCXXX 1/8 onroad world, and you are getting into your first build, like myself, the whole metal fuel tank thing may get confusing, so I will share what I have learned so far. First off, the metal fuel tank was available on the series through the ea...

Re: RC150 Build - My First AE 1/8 Nitro Onroad Car

I got the tank built. I did go ahead and build and install a sump box for it, and ran the internal lines close to what the instructions call for. Maybe there is a secret to bending 1/8 brass tube that I don't know about (I am thinking heat), but it isn't really as malleable in the real world as it i...

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

Another Tami RM2 Mk.5. This guy on FBMP had this for $25! I originally just got with him and told him he was low, then when we got to talking and I just bought it from him, for a bit more. Think I am going to look into the small changes from the Mk.5 - Mk.7, and see how difficult it would be to conv...

Re: RC150 Build - My First AE 1/8 Nitro Onroad Car

Had a little time earlier today to get the throttle and brake links set up. This is not Asso correct, and purists may cringe, but this was my way to go about it. Still need to get to the steering linkage. I bought some square shaft Futaba servo horns, but on top of them being weird and square, appar...

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

Got this little guy in with the plan to pull the rollcage off, and turn around and sell the roller. After getting it though, I think I have already have all the parts it needs, and the brown dye can go to black, and I think after very little work, it will be a runner. It probably won't be much of a ...
