A little goofing off I did awhile back. More designed for a 4wd onroad truck, but travel could always be added. It was just a proof of concept thing.

"The latest kit from the iconic American manufacturer"

Finished up the MT mechanically today, just need to get the body on. Then both of them may sit as they are for weeks, or even months, for that rare day that I actually want to paint lexan bodies.

I was watching one of my youtube channels, https://www.youtube.com/@80sLife , and he was attending a fair that had an interesting exhibit, for typewriters. Then it hit me, when I was in 9th grade, I took a typewriting course in high school, and TBH, I was one of the few males in that class. In '88-'...

Look into the Tamiya 54897. I "think" it's what you need. I have to say that overall, this is a nice piece. The brass is heavy, and feels solid. The outside dimensions (inside of the bearings) are within .01mm of the original gear. It isn't the smoothest diff on earth, but it is perfectly...

T-Bone Mini JRX2??

When I picked up a factoryworks.com Ten4.1 kit last year, I installed it on a FanRC FR01. I have no complaints about that car, but as soon as I was done with it, it hit me that I should have built a RC10 4WD MT Conversion. I almost took apart the FR01 to scavenge the parts, but I let it be. And it w...

Played around putting one of my RadioLink RXs into a Futaba case. The plug spacing is completely different on modern RXs compared to old ones, so not a direct swap. This is perfectly functional, it is just funky that it has to plugged into BATT and CH2. :D I am still trying to find some pcb terminal...

I forced myself to slap together a mock up of a RC10 B1 based dragster this afternoon, in the thought that it would convince me to hate it and get this silly idea out of my head .............................. but TBH, it had the opposite effect!! :D I need to slam this thing down about an inch, and ...

I use to enjoy going to the Nascar races in Richmond and Martinsville, but after awhile, yea, the same thing started keeping me away.

Shocks came in today, and installed ASAP. FanRc Hard Anodized 1.32s. Some limiting tubes installed, and they are perfect IMO. It is almost looking like a legit kit. :shock: I am going back and forth on electronics .......... vintage vs new, brushed vs brushless, etc. Literally have no idea where thi...

I have 4-5 open builds that I should be working on, but for some reason, this stupid B1 dragster is using up most of the partition space I have set aside for RC in my head. I think I have the front mocked up, but the rear is going to be a whole new ballgame. The front is kinda a printed Mcallister k...

I think you secretly long for a Traxxas... Drag Bandit... Not a secret at all! I 100% want an AE RC10 B1 version of a Drag Bandit! :D This pic popped up on my FB a few weeks ago, and yep, in my head since! :wink: For now, I don't want to swap to a pan car front, with "appropriate" tires. ...

This heat outside is converting my outside work time to RC time. The yard looks like crap and the house is falling apart, but I am enjoying more RC time in the A/C.
